Emerging Leaders Program Basics

It should be normal that innovative solutions get developed and implemented into a company. We reached a size where this was no longer happening. These solutions were important, but not important enough for the executives of the company to focus on them. We were suffering because of this. It was not acceptable. Because of this, we built an Emerging Leaders Program. Here are the basics of the program.

  1. Desire to be a future leader
  2. Ability to commit the time required
  3. Love for the company
  4. Executive sponsorship
 Program Commitments

    • Finance
    • Strategy

I conducted a one-one tutorial for a corporate executive using Seneca's On the Shortness of Life. We used the weekly two-hour sessions as a "scheduled space" to discuss professional and personal development / growth using classic (I'm talking 60 AD)reflections on wisdom and leadership. It's great to see the assigned reading section in your company's training plan. In today's knowledge economy, sound reflection is no longer a luxury.
