B-T Leadership Excellence Programs
"THE BEST LEADERSHIP TRAINING YOUR LEADERS WILL EVER RECEIVE"
I. B-T LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE PROGRAMS ARE TARGETED FOR:
- Leaders at all levels - top executives, mid-level, new leaders or leaders in training
- Introductory leadership training OR as a follow-up or add-on to existing Leadership development programs
- Leaders working in ANY industry, or in any type of discipline/task area
- Leaders already performing at high levels, or leaders needing to improve to remain in a leadership role
- Leaders who have moved/transferred from other organizations or from other divisions/teams, and currently undergoing (or having just completed) orientation
II. WHAT MAKES B-T LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE DIFFERENT:
- It will return to your bottom line a short-term measurable ROI, with even greater long-term benefits.
- It is based on our unique insights into your people, from we collect through our assessment and survey process.
- It leverages - it does NOT replace - other leadership development tools you may already have in place.
- We create results, not simply learning, every time.
- It is based on our practical, proven "Foundations of Excellence" Model. Our participants tell us that this model becomes a key tool they utilize every day in their jobs and with their people.
III. LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE OVERVIEW:
Measurable Results
- ROI will be clear because the leadership program will include specific, observable, directly measurable impacts on the business.
Assessment and Survey-Based Data
- We gather real, objective facts about each leader's capabilities. The participants respond positively, from the start, because it is THEIR OWN DATA!
Builds on Success vs. Fixing Problems
- Most leaders are already highly successful. Even for those who need substantial improvement - we focus on how they can better identify and leverage their existing strengths.
Practical Ties to the Foundations of Excellence Model
- Our model serves as a foundation for evaluation, discussion, and meaningful change.
Individualized Focus
- Each leader is unique, and has individual needs - we meet these needs by providing a customized development path for every participant.
Unique Experiential Learning
- Leadership must be experienced and practiced - not "instructed". Lectures can be interesting, but do not create outstanding leaders. Our sessions are unique - they rely less on "teaching", and more on discussion and simulation about situations where leaders will test and experience success with new approaches. When they return to their jobs, we conduct ongoing coaching to monitor their experiences and help them practice what they have learned.
Energy and Enthusiasm Building
- Because of our knowledge and insights about your leaders, gained through the assessment process, we can meet them where they are, inspire them, and help them make and sustain positive changes. For many, this will be the best leadership training they have ever received.
No Hassles
- We have extensive experience setting-up and running award-winning Leadership Development programs for numerous companies. Our breadth of experience means we can create the right process for you, with you. Often the schedules of your leaders determine the timing of events in our program. We will make it work for you. No hassles.
Blended Learning
- For sustainable leadership change, nearly all leaders benefit from ongoing guidance and help. We provide coaches, and develop an ongoing coaching process with your people. We also leverage application homework projects in-between formal sessions, plus the use of learning CDs and books.
Focus on the Right Things
- Good leadership is about focus. We demonstrate that in our programs by focusing on the few, right things that make a difference for each leader. A simple approach - with incredible implications and results.
