Course Overview:

The Ascend to Leadership Program applies an innovative approach by taking a deep dive into developing a strong leader. The program combines traditional classroom instruction, assessments, and virtual work, along with personalized coaching, to create a valuable experience that achieves results. The high level of customized work and coaching focuses on areas of development; each leader will leave the program with a development plan tailored to his or her goals.

Reaching the Summit

For those who have completed the Basecamp session and met the requirements of the key action packets, the final step is reaching the summit. In this final three-day class, participants will tie everything together and learn how to apply what was learned. After the second class, all participants will finish with an individualized coaching session, and leave the program with an individualized development plan to help them achieve their full potential as a strong leader.
