Yesterday’s ‘command and control’ leadership mentality is out.
Hard skills such as planning, finance and analysis that were paramount in years past represent just a fragment of the many skills executives must now possess. Today’s global economy requires additional skills like good communication, creativity, collaboration and the ability to motivate. According to an article recently posted at Bloomberg BusinessWeek, “a modern chief executive requires an array of hard and soft skills; they’re essential for anyone aspiring to top leadership."

Whether you are a senior executive trying to advance your organization
in a new world or an experienced project manager, you’ll be empowered
with new skills and a contemporary perspective on leadership from our
Leadership Excellence Course. Corporate managers from across the
U.S. have graduated from this program more confident, more productive
and more effective leaders…driving their organizations forward.

It’s your time, your chance to revitalize your career and step forward a
better leader. Give yourself every advantage with experienced executive
coaching that will have immediate and practical application.

The Academy Leadership Advantage
Academy Leadership, an elite consulting and training firm founded in 2000, consists of a team of trailblazers with decades of real-world experience developing corporate leaders. But that’s just the beginning. Our top
executives hail from all branches of the world’s mightiest military to bring an altogether unique perspective to leadership training not found in any other program. No one knows more about leadership, strategy, discipline
and creative thinking than the U.S. military’s top commanding officers. Combined, Academy Leadership delivers a comprehensive, no-nonsense program for high-level executives in any industry, in any size organization.

Why Attend?
Walk into one of our leadership courses, and you will take an eye-opening journey of self-discovery to uncover what kind of leader you want to be. This is the most critical, profound step towards dramatic improvements in leadership. Self-aware, leaders can now clearly communicate their vision to stakeholders, partners, colleagues and employees. It’s the key to creating a motivational climate where everyone is ‘on board’ and passionately rowing in the same direction.

Program participants also learn important ‘soft’ skills like how to leverage conflict and build more effective working relationships amongst staff – two issues that research has shown are particularly challenging for most managers at this level. You’ll be captivated learning these and other highly specific, practical strategies that can be set in motion at your organization immediately.

By the end of Day 3, you’re armed with the knowledge and skills to:

• Articulate your personal leadership philosophy
• Build a high-performance team
• Align and accomplish organizational goals
• Strengthen your influence with boards, shareholders, partners, customers, colleagues and critical stakeholders
• Set priorities and develop clear action plans
• Develop committed, energized employees

The Making of a Leader –
Before, During & Ever-After

Before…
Academy Leadership starts with a comprehensive assessment of your leadership style and the activities that drive you to succeed – this, before you even walk in the door. The result is a personal leadership profile that identifies the qualities and activities that energize you as a leader. By concentrating on key leadership competencies in the areas of communication, influence, and more, the Leadership Excellence Course teaches how these principles align with your personal profile for a
customized approach to leadership that you can take with you anywhere.

During…
Academy Leadership’s highly praised course is led by a faculty of former senior executives and Service Academy graduates. You’ll benefit from experiential exercises, faculty and peer feedback and personalized
assessment. Course modules include:

• Managing a Leader’s Style & Energy
• Aligning & Accomplishing Goals
• Personal Leadership Philosophy
• Feedback
• Creating a Motivational Climate
• Leveraging the Power of Conflict
