Program Description
The Exemplary Leadership Certificate is an intensive program based on the award-winning book, The Leadership Challenge, by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner, Ph.D. The program is highly interactive and stimulating.
Participants experience and apply the five practices of exemplary leadership through video cases, textbook exercises and group problem-solving tasks, lectures, and action learning.
The leadership curriculum is based on research analyzing data instrument and case data collected from over 25,000 leaders and 100,000 constituents in a variety of private and public sector organizations. This research identifies the five practices that characterize leaders who get extraordinary things done in organizations.
Individuals who increase the frequency of the practices have been proven to have higher credibility and higher performing teams. Through this work it has been proven that leadership is learnable, and that individuals who experience these programs do in fact increase their leadership effectiveness.
The certificate program consists of eight interactive topics totaling 16 hours of instruction.
They include:
- Leadership Overview
- What Leaders do, and what Constituents Expect
- Modeling the Way
- Inspiring a Shared Vision
- Challenging the Process
- Enabling Others to Act
- Encouraging the Heart
- Leadership for Everyone
