CCL Partnership Wins 2 Brandon Hall Group Gold Awards for Excellence

We are pleased to announce that in partnership with Anglo American, we have won 2 new Brandon Hall Group Human Capital Management (HCM) Excellence Gold awards for “Best Advance in Leadership Development” and “Best Unique or Innovative Learning and Development Program.”

Together with Anglo American, a leading global mining company, the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL)® developed the Anglo American Accelerator Program. The program is offered to Anglo American employees who are considered future business leaders and who possess the confidence and ability to make courageous decisions, embrace diversity, and respond skillfully to uncertainty and change.

The program involves a transitional 6-month virtual learning curriculum incorporating exploration, experiences and experimentation, including 48 immersion sessions with The Immersion Lab. Leaders are tasked with creating a better, more sustainable future for mining and for all stakeholders and communities by thinking deeply about sustainability; environment, social, and governance (ESG); and digital transformation, and finding solutions to improve lives through innovative practices. 

The Anglo American Accelerator Program spans 6 continents, multiple time zones, and is offered in languages, creating a solid foundation of leadership programing around the world. In the post-program impact survey, 93% of participants reported an improvement in their preparedness for future leadership responsibilities, and 90% reported they have both improved actively considering diverse stakeholders in decision making and improved demonstrating inclusive leadership behaviors. Now in its second year, the program is oversubscribed, with more than double the number of participants from 130 to 280 leaders across 6 cohorts in 2023.

The Brandon Hall Group’s HCM Excellence Awards are the largest and longest-running awards program in human capital management. The Anglo American Accelerator Program is the 8th CCL-client partnership to be recognized by the Brandon Hall Group since 2017.
