Course description
Leading for Organizational Impact
Leading within a large organization requires big-picture thinking, plus the ability to navigate relationships and competing priorities.
When leaders of departments and divisions see challenges and opportunities through the eyes of others, it impacts their individual expertise. A narrow focus is useful in tactical responsibilities, but leaders of functions must see nuances and the whole picture of an organization’s overall mission to be strategically effective.
Executive Leadership Training Hones Skills to Handle Today’s Organizational Challenges
Navigating diverse global trends, unpredictable economic forces, and rapidly changing business cycles demands a new set of skills. Participants in our executive leadership development program will reflect on organizational challenges involving one or more of the following:
- How to be organizationally agile with strategy, people, processes, and systems across the organization
- How to strengthen and deepen relationships to bridge differences and build strategic ties
- How to balance competing priorities when all are important and personal reserves are slim.

Prepare:
Before the program week, participants, plus selected direct reports, peers and supervisors, complete several web-based assessments.
Engage:
Led by highly qualified faculty, the program addresses key challenges faced bysenior leaders through a personalized leadership experience. For five days, participants gain insights and experiences that challenge, inspire and teach. Much of the program revolves around a global, day-in-the-life business simulation that provides a clear view of how individual leaders work across boundaries, adopt a strategic perspective and impact organizational outcomes. Leaders connect the simulation experience to their specific challenges and personal development needs. Before leaving the class, each participant will create a plan for moving forward based on the leadership competencies that matter most for success in their organization.
Apply:
At the end of five days, participants will return to their job and begin implementing the plan they created in the classroom. CCL will continue to support the participant and help them apply what they learned by providing additional development resources and ongoing communications.
