RLF OFFERS THE ADDED VALUE OF ONGOING VIRTUAL MEETINGS PLUS 2021 IN-PERSON PROGRAMS

  • RLF participants are continuing  with periodic virtual meetings to share special content and connectivity, providing additive value in advance of their on-site RLF experience in 2021.


THERE'S STILL TIME TO PARTICIPATE IN VIRTUAL MEETINGS AHEAD OF 2021'S FIRST IN-PERSON SESSIONS

  • Hurry ... all but three of RLF's 2021 programs are filled to capacity!  New RLF registrations are being accepted for anyone wishing to join the added-value combination of  virtual meetings plus 2021 in-person sessions for these three remaining sessions ... the New York Metro RLF, the Pacific Southwest RLF and the Southeast RLF.  


RLF UNDERSTANDS THE STRONG PREFERENCE FOR IN-PERSON SESSIONS

  • The move of 2020 in-person sessions to 2021 was made out of concern for the health and well-being of all RLF constituents amid varying state / local guidelines and evolving travel / meeting restrictions.  


  • RLF sponsors continue to communicate a strong preference for on-site / in-person sessions in 2021 to preserve the powerful impact of the RLF experience.


LESSONS FROM 2020-21 WILL LEAD TO AN EVEN STRONGER RLF IN FUTURE YEARS

  • As current virtual forum gatherings progress throughout early 2021, RLF is learning important lessons to add increased value to future offerings, enabling RLF to continue standing apart from all other leadership development programs.

WHY CHOOSE RLF?

THE NEED FOR STRONG LEADERS HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER -- AS 2020 HAS SHOWN

Our world today is incredibly complex.  It's filled with relentless change ... unexpected upheaval … unpredictable ambiguity.  So the need for strong leaders has never been greater.  RLF can produce leaders who:

  • Perform well amid volatility and change while applying highly-developed critical thinking skills.
  • Adeptly leverage their personal leadership strengths.
  • Collaborate, create and innovate with teams throughout the enterprise. 
  • Clearly know their values and instinctively do the right thing at all times.  
  • Mentor other individual contributors and cultivate strong, high-powered teams.


RLF IS UNIQUE

RLF IS NOT A SET OF QUICK WORKSHOPS, LECTURES OR SEMINARS. RLF IS:

  • A rigorous and highly-experiential “learning lab” which promotes long-term leadership development via six 2-day sessions held over the course of nine months.
  • The cross-fertilization of ideas, experiences and practices to help participants pull from within themselves and each other to blossom amid an environment of deep learning.

“ When I was about two-thirds through RLF I was asked to take over a new team of nearly 200 people.  Thanks to what I was learning and applying through RLF and the lessons learned from the book discussions, I focused on listening, understanding various points of view and receiving feedback from all of the business and technology partners.  Over the next 3 years, I was able to help change the culture and business partner relationships, as well as increase the trust level and foster a more positive tone and higher energy level throughout the team.   The RLF experience truly made me pause, reflect, and consider the way I take on any new assignment -- including another new recent promotion to Vice President.  Without RLF, I know I wouldn't be where I am today. “

"RLF certainly changed the trajectory of my career, with my promotion to VP the following year and all subsequent opportunities a direct result of my participation in the program.  The RLF experience instilled the business, networking, and strategic thinking skills that continue to be my guiding principles of authentic leadership.  The practices of self awareness, and taking the time to ponder and reflect, developed a core attachment to and understanding of my own values and life goals.  I continue to recommend and send others to RLF -- both IT and Operations professionals -- and watch with delight as they're transformed into greater leaders, as they give back to their teams and the organization, and blossom into their potential as human beings. RLF truly is a refreshingly hopeful and positively-focused experience."

 “At a pivotal place in my career, a mentor and friend recommended me to participate in SIM's RLF program. After completing the final session, I walked out with a fresh view on leadership, relationships -- and, most importantly, myself. The books, activities and discussions were great ...  but what I learned from the people (facilitators and fellow RLF attendees) was incredible. The foundational principals and concepts I absorbed during RLF have definitely enhanced my professional opportunities. More importantly, they have enhanced my ability to enjoy my career."

"RLF helped me to re-affirm the type of leader I am – giving me my leadership compass – and confirmed my belief in the type of legacy I wanted to create from my career.  It also provided a renewed interest in lifelong learning, which I continue today.  Shortly after RLF, I was promoted to VP – Information Technology, leading a global IT team through strategic and tactical activities.  Today, I’m fortunate to be able to continue to send my company’s high-performing IT leaders to RLF every year.
