"The content of the course was timely considering the budget environment that we are entering. At this point of time, leadership will be of critical importance. The training provided will help ensure that I ask the right questions as we move forward."
Federal managers are constantly honing their leadership skills. This seminar focuses on developing your strengths rather than trying to improve your weaknesses, so you can go from being a good manager to an extraordinary leader.
The curriculum is based on research presented in John Zenger and Joseph Folkman's groundbreaking book, "The Extraordinary Leader: Turning Good Managers into Great Leaders", and is designed to help emerging leaders develop their strengths rather than improve their weaknesses.
Through introductory lectures, small group discussion, experiential learning and individualized coaching, you will gain insight into your personal leadership strengths so you can achieve your full leadership potential.
The federal manager and those moving up to manager positions, regardless of seniority, level of authority or experience. Those in formal leadership roles with direct reports (supervisors, managers, branch chiefs, etc.) or individual contributors without direct reports (scientists, engineers, lawyers, project or program managers, PMFs, etc.) will also benefit from this seminar.
Unless hosted at either the EMDC or WMDC, lodging and meals are not included in the tuition.
