EXECUTIVE RLF
HIGH ALTITUDE LEADERSHIP
WHY CHOOSE THE EXECUTIVE RLF PROGRAM?
THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS HAVE PROVED IT ... HIGHLY-CAPABLE LEADERS ARE NEEDED AT THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL
In our world that’s become incredibly complex, filled with relentless change and unpredictable ambiguity, the need has never been greater for highly-proficient leadership at the executive level. As your career journey climbs to a new level, you will find yourself in a more complicated world where the stakes are higher … where you are less dependent on management ability and more dependent upon leadership and influence abilities. The Executive RLF offers important platforms to:
- Raise your consciousness about extending yourself amid the increased complexity as you rise through the organization.
- Expand your world view on relationships and communication at every level.
- Develop, demonstrate and utilize influence power.
- Enable mental presence amid stress.
- Build intellectual power and strength in order to be influential, have impact and make a difference.
RLF GRADS ... WHY PROGRESS TO THE EXECUTIVE RLF?
In RLF you learned to "know yourself." In the Executive RLF you'll learn how to "leverage yourself."
Are you an RLF graduate already at the senior or executive level? Do you possess additional years of leadership / executive leadership experience following your graduation from RLF? Have you been recognized for further advancement potential?
Then consider the Executive RLF program. Because some grads wonder "What's the difference between RLF and the Executive RLF?" we've created a brochure explaining the progression from RLF to the Executive RLF. So check out how you can keep moving up the leadership continuum, and continue building on the many skills you acquired in RLF.
