Leadership Development Programs

Over the course of eight weeks, our leadership development programs cover how to master conflict resolution and maintain professional boundaries while effectively influencing others and handling challenging behaviours assertively. You'll develop strategies for a high-performance team culture and foster an environment conducive to growth and adaptation.

Combine fortnightly group workshops with individual coaching sessions to grow your learning.

Tactical & Operational Leadership Development Program

This program is conducted over eight weeks and includes four online group workshops and four individual coaching sessions. This allows you to discuss your individual challenges and successes with the group in relation to each module.

As you work through the self-paced, online modules, we’ll apply the theory you learn to your specific situation during the fortnightly group workshops.

This leadership development program is NOT for you if:

  • You would rather follow the easy path than make the effort required to level-up
  • You have no interest in learning because there is nothing more for you to learn
  • You blame others for your circumstances despite the situation
  • You are unable to leave your ego at the door
  • You are unwilling to invest in your future
