Program Value &
Key Differentiators

STRUCTURED FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS
Each participant attends seven virtual sessions over a three month period. This format is easily accessible for participants, minimizes disruption to companies, and allows each participant to test on the job the critical insights they have learned before returning to the next session.

ONE-ON-ONE & GROUP MENTORSHIP
A personal mentor with years of executive experience is assigned to each participant, who guides them through business challenges and coaches them in creating their professional development plan. In addition, participants are given an opportunity to build mentoring relationships with their assigned peer mentor groups through programming and extracurricular sessions.

REAL-TIME, REAL-WORLD SITUATIONS
Each participant spends time solving actual business challenges by working with peers, assessing options, weighing alternatives and agreeing upon solutions. By honing their collaborative and leadership skills, they leave the program with greater self-awareness, increased proficiency and a stronger sense of accountability.

ACTION PLAN FOR SUCCESS
Graduates of Strategies for Success will leave with an individual development plan created with their supervisor’s input, directly in line with their company’s business objectives.

“The individuals in my cohort formed a comradery and cohesiveness through our shared experience at this historic place in time. Several members will remain part of my ‘personal board of advisors,’ a testament to the strength of the program and caliber of the participants.”
