Executive Leadership Program Overview For senior executives only, the Executive Leadership Program addresses the unique challenges and opportunities that exist in the top tiers of organizations. This program is about fundamental change, purposeful action, and the ability to make a significant and lasting contribution. Who Should Attend It is important that executives have the opportunity to network and discuss senior-level issues with other executives who face similar challenges. For this reason, admission to the Executive Leadership Program is by application only. Features - Expert counsel from a Niagara Executive Coach before, during, and after the program (including pre-program interviews with you and up to three of your colleagues, a half-day of coaching during the program, and ongoing coaching after the program);
- An opportunity to work with executives from other organizations—sharing experiences, ideas, and approaches in a safe, comfortable, and confidential environment;
- Personal feedback and candid conversation that is normally unavailable to senior executives;
- Dialogue about the challenges of working in multiple stakeholder environments to achieve results through influence without authority.
Outcomes - Clarity concerning your leadership style and its impact on others in the executive team and the organization at large;
