The Leadership Journey®
What is it?
A facilitated, twelve-session, hands-on leadership improvement program to…
- increase self-awareness to maximize strengths and minimize weaknesses
- better understand, coach and lead others toward shared goals
… all in a safe environment to learn and practice new skills.
Why is it a journey?
Leadership is not a one-time event. Learning to be an effective leader takes time, care and attention.
Spreading the journey over time enables you to try new skills, real-time, to address the challenges you face.
What makes it different from other leadership programs
1) No other program includes and integrates the following instruments (plus more…)
- Myers-Briggs Type Indicator
- DiSC
- Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode
- Advancer’s Team Dimensions Profile
2) All of our coaches are ICF-accredited
3) Satisfies recertification for:
- 18 prism CPD credits
- PSM level, 3 points
What is the format?
As a general rule, in each session you learn-practice-apply a new skill under the guidance of your coach, as well as revisiting previous skills. However, our coaches are able to adjust sessions to the unique needs of the group.
The Leadership Journey® now includes QwikCoach, a 24 by 7 on-line coaching and support tool.
QwikCoach provides simple and direct access to hundreds of tips, techniques, and practice exercises. And, each Leadership Journey program has its own private domain where documents and updates may be shared only by class attendees.
