8:30 AM - 4:30 PM CST Developing Yourself as a Leader
Whether you're a high-potential professional on your way up the corporate ladder or a current leader, continuing your personal development is essential to your success. Unfortunately, without the necessary guidance or tools, it can be difficult to know where to begin. This course will empower you with the same essential tools and techniques our experienced executive coaches use for their own personal development.

8:30 AM - 4:30 PM CST Thinking Strategically
Thinking strategically is critical for moving organizations forward, and yet 96% of leaders report they are too busy reacting to day-to-day management issues to think strategically (HBR). Designed and facilitated by seasoned business leaders, this course will teach you to resist the pull of your routines so you can ask the right questions, spark innovation, navigate uncertainty, and take advantage of strategic opportunities.
