Breakthrough Leader program
Unlock high perfomance and motivation with the progress principle
Learn what the best leaders of engagement practice every day. The Breakthrough Leader program is designed to advance employee engagement by transforming the way leaders lead.
Making progress on meaningful work
A Progress Driven Leadership mindset is the key to engagement:
- Highly effective leaders were identified as driving progress on meaningful work while serving as catalysts of creativity and problem solving. They also played the role of nourishers of team unity and built momentum through small wins.
- Ineffective leaders did the opposite. They did not provide clear-cut goals or a vision for the work, and often inhibited innovation. Instead of uniting the team, they were considered toxic to the culture of the team and viewed as a barrier to progress.
The Breakthrough Leader program reveals specific opportunities for leaders to engage team members and provides tools for developing a customized action plan. Participants focus on planning the conditions for success that can be implemented immediately following the program.
Leadership boots on the ground:
Leader interaction is the crucial point at which engagement is won or lost. For most organizations this is both good and challenging news. The good news is that engagement practices can indeed be influenced directly to provide a high return on investment. The challenging news is that advancing engagement takes more than a master-stroke from upper-leadership. It requires leaders at all levels to participate in a concerted effort to drive progress on meaningful work. The Breakthrough Leader program reveals how this can be achieved.
Experiential learning coupled with relevant tools:
The program delivers solid grounding in the fundamental leadership strategy of driving progress on meaningful work using relevant and sustainable leadership actions. It also provides participants with the opportunity to put the factors illuminated by The Progress Principle into everyday practice. The methodology used in the program to drive sustainable behavior change has its genesis in experiential learning combined with relevant, focused action planning.
A sustainable approach to leadership development and engagement:
It is vital that applied learning continues beyond the classroom. Consequently, the program is designed to provide a wide repertoire of insights and practical tools to put plans into desired action. Participants leave the program with a comprehensive plan for putting the principles into place in a way that will be supported and measured by the organization. The Breakthrough Leader approach can become the new standard for leading and engaging within your organization.
