This program is a comprehensive leadership development experience for leaders at every level. It is designed to foster both personal and professional growth. While no program can anticipate every leadership scenario, this experience equips participants with the tools to navigate challenges with confidence and clarity.

In a collaborative group setting, you’ll connect with peers to exchange ideas and strategies for success. Together, you’ll explore how to integrate core leadership topics into your life and work.

Guided by the framework of Kevin Cashman’s Leadership from the Inside Out, the sessions integrate a variety of tools and resources to dive deeply into core leadership themes. We believe leadership is a lifelong journey rather than a destination, and we are passionate about supporting each individual as they grow along their own unique path.

Inside the Heart of Leadership covers 12 sessions in 6-month or full-year cohorts.

 

FORMAT

The program includes 12 sessions, each lasting 2 hours. You can choose a schedule that works best for your group, for example:

  • Every other week for six months
  • One a month for a year

With its longer format, the program allows participants to reflect, apply, and grow gradually over time.

I wanted to say thank you for a wonderful experience with the Leadership Training. I am grateful that I got to be a part of the training. WOW what a fun group of humans we had, such a good group. I will continue to review the material as I continue to grow. Thanks for all you do to help us become better Leaders.

I can not say enough good about the program. I loved everything about it. Being more conscious of others thoughts and differences than me has been a huge take away; learning to treat each employee as a leader and seeing potential in them. Personally, I feel like it has helped me in many ways. Being more tolerant of family, not assuming, better communication, feeling grateful to do things instead of feeling I have to do it. These are just a few.

Among the many leadership programs I’ve participated in, this one has been the most impactful—both personally and professionally. Regardless of your field, it cultivates leadership in all its forms and inspires a deeper commitment to growth, integrity, and being a better human overall
