Leadership Academy

Immersive cohort programs for leaders taking on broader enterprise responsibility.

Leadership Academy programs combine assessment, coaching, applied learning, and candid work with a small group of senior peers. Each program is built around a particular stage of leadership and provides enough time, challenge, and continuity for meaningful change.

Enterprise Perspective

The value of the cross-company cohort.

Internal leadership programs provide essential knowledge of the company, its strategy, and its culture. Cross-company cohorts add something different: the opportunity to test assumptions with peers from other industries, see unfamiliar business models at work, and speak candidly outside internal reporting relationships.

This cross-company exposure fosters the agility required at the enterprise level. In a curated group of peers from outside their own organization, leaders find a unique level of candor and a safer space to examine their own habits of thought and action.
