The hallmark of our executive coaching and training style:
• It is rooted in the realities of issues faced in your role.
• Learning is experiential and interactive.
• Participants must think on their feet and react to stimuli.
• Interactive learning experiences are paired with small peer group discussions and individual executive coaching, allowing participants to truly understand the mindsets they bring to situations, what their associated behaviors are, and how they can start to change these.
• Participants are constantly challenged throughout our programs to stretch themselves and apply the practical learnings from the sessions in their day-to-day roles.
• Participants are set tasks and accountability for individual learning throughout the program.
• Managers are made aware throughout the program of participants’ goals and their actions to achieve these.
