Leadership Programs

There are many different types of leadership training courses available, and the ones your organization chooses for its leaders depends on the challenges and needs of your organization, as well as the level of the individual leader. Some training programs focus on immersive, hands-on simulations and developmental experiences, while others are online-only courses that enable leaders to develop their skills from anywhere.

Since the challenges faced and skills needed to succeed are different at every level of the organization, leadership courses and programs should be tailored to what a leader is facing currently — while also preparing them for what’s next:

• For senior-level executives, we recommend the online Leading Strategically Experience or the in-person Leading for Organizational Impact program.
• If you’re looking for a training program for mid-level leaders, our Leadership Development Program (LDP)® and online Effective Leader course are world-renowned and tailored to the specific challenges faced by those leading from the middle.
• For frontline managers and new leaders, we suggest the online Frontline Leader Impact course or the Maximizing Your Leadership Potential program for high potentials.
• Individual contributors without direct reports can develop the fundamental 4 leadership skills needed to succeed with our online Lead 4 Success™ course.
• Lastly, leaders at all levels can develop their communication, feedback, and conversational skills through our Better Conversations Every Day™ suite of leadership training solutions.

Effective leadership training is based on rigorous research, and is highly individualized, targeting a leader’s unique challenges and strengths in order to drive real impact and help the leader bring out their best. To be truly transformational, an effective leadership course must offer personalized attention and feedback, tangible and engaging learning experiences, and ongoing support to its participants. 

The benefits of leadership training include gaining increased self-awareness of strengths and weaknesses through individualized feedback based on assessment data, setting clear personal and professional development goals with the help of a trained executive coach, learning from peers facing similar challenges, and joining a community of alumni who can offer ongoing support.
