Why Invest In Leadership Training During A Global Pandemic? - Part #1

Right now, we are caught between what was, pre-COVID, and what will be, post global pandemic. Every day, there are more endings, interim solutions and hope for new beginnings swirling around the work place. As a result, leaders are stretched and teams are struggling.


When we take stock of where we are right now and look forward to the next 18 - 24 months, it is clear to all of us that we need more people to become leaders and we need our current leaders to become better leaders. The unknowns and uncertainties will not go away with a vaccine. They will just evolve into new problems and new challenges. 


Therefore, now is the time to build capacity so we can continue to adapt. As Jim Collins and Morten T. Hansen in their book, Great By Choice: Uncertainty, Chaos, and Luck - Why Some Thrive Despite Them All (HarperCollins, 2011), wrote, “It’s what you do before the storm hits - the decisions and disciplines and buffers and shock absorbers already in place - that matters most in determining whether your enterprise pulls ahead, falls behind or dies when the storm hits.” And we all know that the upcoming months and years are going to be filled with more storms.


So, if your organization needs to be better prepared, then now is the time to sign up your key leaders for the 2021 From Vision to Action Leadership Training. Through a challenging, interactive curriculum which blends lectures, selected readings, small and large group discussions, participants in this four part leadership training gain critical knowledge and skills which improve their ability to help their people and the organization as a whole move through periods of prolonged uncertainty.


Given the global pandemic, the first two sessions this year will be via the Zoom platform and the final two sessions will be in person if it is safe for us to gather that way in 2021.
