EMERGING LEADERS
LEADERSHIP FROM THE INSIDE OUT
This unique, live, online program engages you as an emerging leader, wherever you are in your career. Even if you’ve done leadership training before, this is a fresh experience—you hold up a mirror, see yourself anew, and engage in a dynamic learning lab with peers.
Explore the roots of your impact—from personal style to culture to gender and beyond—and make better decisions through better awareness. This experience, particularly coming out of the pandemic, strengthens your creative power and resilience.
New cohort forming now for September start.
Leading with strategic impact
About the course
As a leader’s influence expands, so does their need to sharpen decision-making, conflict resolution and relationship skills.

By the end of this course, you will be able to:
-
Deepen self-awareness, recognize personal derailers and gain coping tactics
