Main Content

One of our key services, the Living As A Leader Leadership Development Series, is a comprehensive, steady progress-over-time approach that equips leaders with depth and breadth of skill and knowledge. Participants include supervisors, managers, and other key leaders. In addition to offering this Series in-house, it is available as a Public Series option. This provides you the opportunity to send one or a few leaders at a time, launching each spring and each fall.

The Series consists of two critical elements for supporting the growth and development of leaders—skill-building workshops and coaching sessions with a leadership coach. Coaches help to ensure application of newly gained knowledge and skills in the workplace.

Leaders who successfully complete the Series will be workplace-ready—intentional and confident with the choices they make, instinctively knowing what to say and what to do.

It is important for participants of this Series to have formal direct reports. Our Emerging Leader Series is available for individual contributors who do not have direct reports.

  What separates Living As A Leader from other providers of leadership development services?

At Living As A Leader, our mission is to provide concrete, relevant services to support leaders at all levels of an organization in a steady-progress-over-time fashion.

Our customers consistently mention four key reasons that contribute to their high levels of satisfaction and continued partnership with us:

  1. Our process. We are not event-based trainers. Our intentional process combines training plus coaching plus learning reinforcement tools to maximize sustainability.
  2. Our steady-progress-over-time approach. Customers appreciate this approach given the busy schedule that most leaders face daily.
  3. Our relevant content. We strive to put ourselves in the shoes of leaders and the employees they serve and to provide them with content, models and skills that work in the real world.
  4. Our skilled facilitators and coaches. While many professionals believe it would be fun to work for us, we are deliberate and careful in our selection of trainers, coaches and consultants. Each member of our leadership team has a proven track record of success in the leadership development arena.

  What happens when leaders complete their participation in the Leadership Development Series?

Over the years, a frequently asked question at the end of the process is, “Now what?” Most of our participating leaders grow accustomed to the steady support of their facilitator, coach and peer group.

We offer additional follow-up services and reinforcements for graduates of the Living As A Leader Series such as one-on-one coaching packages, the Leadership Blog, YouTube videos and the Leadership Community Facebook group where members can interact and have their questions answered by our coaches.
