Ideal candidates have had experience in leadership/management (of people) and are looking for a confidential brain trust to explore common leadership/management themes. You don’t have to be at the Executive Table to participate. Rather, you’ve been in a position of leadership/management long enough to experience some “issues” and have enough to contribute to the group discussions.

Participants provide a “brain trust” for each other on common leadership and business issues while receiving support in achieving their individual goals and outcomes.

Alumni Testimonials:

"I really enjoyed the members of my cohort. They had similar issues but from vastly different industries. I didn’t think I would enjoy sharing as much as I did, but felt it became a very safe place. Seven months went too quickly. For me, self-awareness is probably most relevant to my success and my company’s success. This forum gave me tools to monitor and better myself."
"I found the real time opportunities to practice new skills and get feedback from the group to be motivational and highly effective. It created another layer of accountability for results."
“The Forum provides an opportunity for self-reflection that is always meaningful to personnel in management. The course's content reaffirmed both the positive and negative aspects of a person's tendencies while they are performing as a leader in an organization.”
