Through our Leadership and Strategic Impact program, you'll explore your effectiveness as a strategic leader. You'll learn ways to improve the functioning of the teams and divisions you lead, and how leadership behaviors and practices influence the strategic process and overall organization. The program uses self assessment and awareness tools along with class activities (readings, discussions, small group projects, and role play) to enhance leadership skills. Team problem-solving challenges allow participants to practice leadership behaviors in a supportive environment.
