An alternative approach to developing leaders

Program Overview

This program supports the development of leaders with bite size learning segments facilitated by an experienced executive coach. Sessions are designed to engage small groups in learning critical leadership concepts and apply the concepts back at the workplace. Our modules set out dedicated content that is foundational for leadership development. The coach supports the learning by engaging in the lived and learned experiences of those in the group through an inquiry-based learning approach.  The facilitator as coach also enables the participants to determine “the so what” for themselves and the business and commit to tangible actions as a result of the learning.

Each Module has six 90-minute sessions.  Module 1 is a pre-requisite for other modules.  The focus for each module is noted below.
