Expression of Interest - Consultancy Services for Smt Development

Scope of Work

BRAC International is seeking an experienced consultant to design and deliver a comprehensive leadership development program for its Senior Management Team (SMT) across East and West Africa.

The consultancy will begin with focused group discussions and consultations with SMT members and Country Directors to identify key leadership challenges. These insights, alongside a Training Needs Analysis (TNA) administered by BI’s Learning & Development (L&D) team, and a review of organizational documents (such as BI’s strategic plan and core values), will inform the design of a leadership training program aligned with the organization's priorities. The program should integrate leadership behaviours and competencies, and embed principles of gender dynamics and feminist leadership.

The consultant will facilitate two five-day, in-person workshops—one for each regional SMT cohort—using participatory adult-learning methods. This will be followed by a virtual cross-regional learning exchange and three virtual group coaching sessions over six months to support continued growth and application. Additional responsibilities include developing an Individual Development Plan (IDP) tool, proposing post-training learning mechanisms, and delivering a final evaluation report assessing learning outcomes and strategic recommendations. All work must be participatory, contextually grounded, and responsive to BI’s evolving leadership development needs.

The consultant will deliver an inception report outlining the approach, methodology, and key milestones, incorporating insights from focus group discussions, the Training Needs Analysis, and engagement with SMT members.
