The Exceptional Leader Training Program for Credit Unions

all EVENTS

The Exceptional Leader program is a high-impact, comprehensive, six month leadership mastery program geared toward established and emerging leaders and is ideal for supervisors, managers, and project managers. This program is designed to upgrade the management skills of leaders and dramatically increase their effectiveness.

This program has proven to be successful because the leaders have an opportunity to learn over the course of a few months rather than all at once. This allows your leaders to go away after each session and implement new skills deliberately and get the support they need along the way.

Our program includes homework and accountability to ensure your leaders are applying their learning. This is truly an active and participatory workshop rather than a class where leaders are just learning principles and theory.
