Books
The program uses the book, “The Path to Elite Level Leadership,” authored by Professor Bryan Bennett. This book walks through the steps in the Elite Leadership Process™ and provides a firm foundation for leadership improvement.
The program also includes the “Elite Leadership Training Practice Workbook” for use during the course to document participants’ leadership improvement journey both during the program and afterwards. As the process is continuously-improving, participants will want to return to the workbook to make adjusts in their assessments, update their leadership vision, documents their reflections and record coaching session outcomes.
Assessments & Reassessments
The program begins with a strengths assessment using the Gallup Strengths assessment to help the leader better understand their individual strengths. The program continues with our proprietary Leadership IMPACT AssessmentTM tool which analyzes how the participant embraces various leadership behaviors.
Participants will complete scheduled assessments and reassessments with one-on-one debriefings over the course of the program to track their leadership improvement and identify any challenges they may be facing in embracing the leadership training.
