New Leader Assimilation
Session for new hires with more than four direct reports to support quicker and stronger leader and team assimilation. The objectives of this session are to support the team in gaining new insight about the leader as a person, and as a leader, to enable the team to share needs, questions and/or concerns in a safe, confidential way so that the new leader can address and support the team’s success going forward, and to expedite the time it takes for the team to establish itself as a performing team.

Personal Leadership Study Groups
These 90-minute discussions focus on a leadership topic and a selected book or set of articles. Participants are provided with a copy of the readings ahead of time and are invited to a lively discussion and application session.
