Empowering Leaders in Higher Education
Leadership Development and Continuous Learning for Leaders Across Campuses
Since 2017, we have been grateful to partner with multiple campuses across a geographic region, to equip and empower leaders across their institutions. What began as a single course as part of a leadership development series evolved into a comprehensive, annual, signature leadership development program on campus, based on feedback from participants and their leaders.
The Opportunity
With rapid growth comes the need for effective and aligned leaders across all levels, roles, and geographies. Committed to developing high-potential employees and equipping leaders, managers, and supervisors with concrete skills to lead more effectively, the company wanted to create a program that would empower their leaders to be effective and confident in their respective roles.
Our Approach
Since 2022, we’ve partnered closely with the organization to grow, develop, and equip their managers and leaders. What began as a cohort-based leadership development program has expanded into executive bootcamps and strategic offsites, with a goal of supporting the executive team to most effectively support their teams and leaders.
