LEADERSHIP COURSES:
DEVELOPING TALENT EARLIER

Really investing in Professional Development starts about… 10-years too late at most companies.

We’ve developed thorough programs to bring critical skills to your talent earlier in their career.

let's chat

There's a fundamental disconnect in most companies...

Thorough and consistent leadership development programs begins at the very top in most companies – usually at the director level and above.

But most talent earlier in their careers are stating lack of career development and advancement opportunities as their #1 reason for leaving companies (yes, even above pay – see below for research).

So we’ve developed courses to bridge that gap and keep your earliest talent — the ones closest to your customer, who turnover the most often — at your company for longer.


ABOUT THE COURSES

From 'Yes' to Success:
Taking the Guesswork Out of Being Green

For: Your “greener” employees, entry-level talent, or anyone in the workforce for less than 5 years.

When: Following the completion of your company & department on-boarding. After your employees learn about your tools, products, and processes.

Why: Understanding how your younger talent fits into the bigger picture sets them up for critical thinking even earlier. We provide the skills, tools, and context to help make the transition smoother.

Leading for Leverage:
Transitioning to The Effective Leader

For: Your recently promoted first-time manager, or anyone needing a brush-up on leadership skills.

When: As soon as possible following a title change. You want your managers to have the skills needed to lead others immediately.

Why: This is one of the hardest transitions in the workforce. Creating shared language and norms for what good leadership looks like eliminates a lot of new-manager and new-team anxiety.

While both courses are purposely structured, they are specifically designed to be tailored to your company’s needs and culture. We partner with you & your team to fill in 20% of the content through speakers, industry specific content, relevant case-studies and more.


ABOUT THE MODEL & METHOD

We believe that in order to effectively lead at scale and influence others, you need to first know how to lead yourself. This means understanding things like:
  • “How does my communication and behavior impact others?”
  • “How do I communicate effectively up and down the organizations?”
  • “How do I contribute to the culture at large?”
Both courses are intentionally designed with this framework in mind. The content is specifically created to increase self-awareness, understand influence and learn how to drive change regardless of your title.

Participant
Team Workshop
"Our sessions were something I looked forward to most, as Shereen had the ability to take my dialogue and filter it down and make me realize, that I actually already had the answers, I just needed someone to help me unpack them. She truly has changed the way I think of myself as a leader and has given me the tools to help me continue to grow."

"I really enjoyed working with people I have not before. It's been really inspiring hearing others' thoughts on topics discussed, which makes you think about aspects that most of the time are underestimated or not considered at all."
