Leadership Development
Provide your leadership team with the skills, knowledge, abilities and tools to be successful in driving top performance and delivering on the vision and strategic plan of the organization. We have a varied offering of tools, training sessions, team buildings, and workshops from which to choose to address the specific needs of your leadership team.
- Leadership Practices Inventory® (LPI)
We utilize the Leadership Practices Inventory® (LPI), from The Leadership Challenge® Workshop. This is one of the most widely used 360-degree leadership assessment instruments available. More than 250,000 leaders and nearly one million observers have completed this assessment since it was first used in 1985. Surveys from more than 100,000 respondents have been analyzed to determine the relationship between specific leadership practices and behaviors and a variety of measurable outcomes. In addition to the participant doing a self-assessment, ten observers comprised of leaders, direct reports, peers, and colleagues will provide feedback with this online instrument.
- Executive and Management Coaching
Executives and managers identified with the potential to add great value to the organization will be guided one-on-one through a discovery process. After creating a personalized plan with growth opportunities, they will benefit from focused and personalized individual coaching to develop their abilities and leadership skills.
- Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI®)
The MBTI® can be used as a developmental tool in one-on-one coaching. By understanding the dynamics of one’s own personality type, individuals can leverage their strengths, overcome their challenges, and optimize their performance. The MBTI® instrument has been used for over 50 years around the world in understanding individual differences and uncovering new ways to work and interact with others. More than 2 million assessments are administered to individuals annually —including employees of many Fortune 500 companies. As qualified administrators of the MBTI®, we can utilize this tool to enable your managers and executives to gain the most benefit from his or her individual coaching sessions.
- Skill Development
As a leader identifies and implements a development plan, we can provide ongoing support with specific skill building in a small class environment or individual training sessions, the creation of tools and processes, providing specific feedback, and coaching for performance.
- The Leadership Challenge® Workshop
A unique, intensive, and highly interactive program that has served as a catalyst for profound leadership transformations in organizations of all sizes and in all industries. Backed by 25 years of original research and data from over 3 million leaders, The Leadership Challenge® is a leadership development program created by bestselling authors Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner that approaches leadership as a measurable, learnable, and teachable set of behaviors. The Leadership Challenge® is about how leaders engage and mobilize others to want to achieve extraordinary outcomes. Focusing on creating a climate in which people turn challenging opportunities into remarkable successes and measurable impact, we will explore the five key practices exceptional leaders use to transform values into actions, visions into realities, obstacles into innovations, and risks into rewards.
- Visioning
Most leaders are not natural visionaries, but it is a vital skill that can and must be developed. There is a difference between a vision and a vision statement. Understanding this difference is the key differentiator between good leaders and great leaders. Everyone in a leadership or management position must be able to articulate and share his or her vision in a compelling way to inspire and motivate his or her employees. Employees that feel connected to the vision will be more committed and engaged. It is also crucial for management to personify the vision and use it as a foundation for strategic planning and decision making. We will guide leaders through a process that enables them to clearly, compellingly, and passionately communicate their vision to their team or organization.
- New Leader Transitions
A newly promoted or assigned leader can increase the effectiveness of his/her team and ease the transition by clarifying styles, responsibilities, and expectations. We will facilitate the workshop and lay the groundwork for effective communication and teamwork by identifying potential problem areas and negotiate agreements for ways to handle them as a team, while establishing commitments to ensure the highest level of team effectiveness.
