We know these are challenging times for you, your family, organization, and community. As we face a global pandemic, struggling economies, social unrest, and environmental upheaval, we as people, organizations and communities face tremendous uncertainty. If we don’t start collaborating and building trust, more chaos is bound to come. The key to a safe, secure and stable future is our ability to band together as leaders and create effective transformational strategies that provide for all stakeholders’ betterment.
At the Center, we’re firing on all cylinders. We are here to support you in every way we can to navigate the complex personal and professional challenges you face successfully.

We have compiled all of the best practices and transformation strategies from the last four decades into the courses and programs you’ll find here. We hope this helps to give you everything you need to make an immediate difference now.

You’ll be able to apply what you learn to your work and life immediately. All programs are stakeholder focused and based in experiential, adult learning theory. Your learnings will be relevant and meaningful because the cases, examples, models and methods speak to you in your role. You practice what you learn to embody and retain the wisdom long term.
No matter which development path you choose, each opportunity integrates learning objectives and uses common language, strategies, models, and tools. These set in motion a “force-multiplying effect” that plays specific reinforcing roles to accelerate your development and provide immediate results.
