Leadership Circle: Leading in Uncertain Times
We are excited to announce one of our newest offerings for Impact Center Executive Leadership Program alums, Leadership Circle: Leading in Uncertain Times.
We have designed this program to provide you with a reflective space away from the day-to-day demands of your personal and professional responsibilities, where you will engage with timely lessons to empower you to maximize your leadership and achieve clarity in the midst of uncertainty and change.
This Leadership Circle harnesses the power of community to create a supportive, close-knit cohort where peers will not only drive their own growth but will also play an active role in holding their fellow leaders accountable to achieving goals that will strengthen their impact in their roles and advance their professional development. Participants of this in-depth leadership development experience will come away with a renewed perspective on their development, tools for success, and clarity on the changes and opportunities that lie ahead.
