The next Leadership Academy begins May 18th!
What is the Leadership Academy?
The Leadership Academy is an intensive leadership development course designed for men and women who are ready to make a quantum leap in their personal and career development, providing an exciting and enlightening process of mastering the art and science of facilitation.
“Leadership” is compelling people to act on their greatest possibilities. People who lead in organizations generate new ideas, develop creative responses and push for change giving the organization a competitive edge. There are countless ways to make a difference in your company, business and local community. One of the most direct and satisfying ways to achieve change is through facilitating transformational learning models. Whether it is productivity, communication, conflict resolution, change management, diversity training or program implementation, being a qualified trainer able to constitute experiential models of education opens up a new frontier of opportunity for you, those you serve, and the organization as a whole.
Becoming a professional transformational trainer requires a great deal of work, commitment, care and often a new way of being with people, as well as the willingness to confront your own personal paradigms. Transformation happens when an individual has the courage to step beyond the routine acceptance of the status quo and inspire others to exceed their current limitations, breaking through to new levels of excellence, creativity and productivity.
The methodology and conceptual content of the Leadership Academy has been shaped by three decades of research conducted in live situations with thousands of people on three continents. Today Culture ROI is making available the Leadership Academy to empower individuals to most capably express their leadership potential.

Course Outline
Step One: Managing Conversations
Here participants will be oriented in a fundamental principle of transformational leadership training. By working from the perception that people are a collection of conversations, rather than “things” possessing personality traits, participants will practice leading their clients to most capably re-frame challenges opening new ways of relating to old problems. Such practices powerfully equip the trainer to assist their clients to access previously unrecognized resources in their personal and professional lives.
Step Two: Listening Knowledge & Skills
Learn to empower and manage large groups of people. Practice and develop the communication, presentation, and coaching skills integral to being an effective trainer. Skills that will influence every type of negotiation you may have inside or outside your company or business. Particular attention will be given to the practice of identifying and gracefully challenging the pre-existing assumptions clients make about themselves, others with whom they work, circumstances, as well as what possibilities are available. Receive vital coaching and experience on what to do and not do when training.
Step Three: Learning the Material
Begin internalizing the details of key learning modules within the Quantum Leadership and Art of Leadership courses. The set-up, delivery, and debriefing of the course will each be covered and practiced.
Step Four: Integration
Receive valuable feedback and coaching as you practice delivering portions of the courses to a pre-arranged focus group. For the manager, be trained on business practices necessary for negotiating your new learning into your organization. For the consultant, be trained on how to negotiate new business.
