About Taking a Leap™
To complement our organizational transformation services, we have developed our Taking a Leap Leadership Development™ program. This customizable, innovative program combines leadership group training sessions with one-on-one coaching to enable individuals to take a leap, rise to the occasion, and become highly effective leaders in changing environments. The key components of our energetic, interactive program include:
- Customize leadership training curriculum and coaching topics based on high-priority organizational priorities and pre-determined leadership skill gaps
- Schedule program to focus each month on a specific “leadership theme” to enable focused skill development and application
- Ensure applied, pragmatic learning for immediate on-the-job application
- Follow-up each monthly group training session with one-on-one skill coaching sessions to provide individual support and accountability for application
Our Approach
We have developed a six-month curriculum with each month focused on one key skill as the “leadership theme of the month”. Each month includes a half-day group training session followed by mid-month, one-on-one skill coaching sessions to support participants and provide them with individual feedback as they begin to put into practice the leadership principles learned specifically related to the monthly theme.
