Authentic Leadership Academy

Leadership is not something you do. It's something you develop. For each level of responsibility you take on, there's a new level of leadership you need to master. This is a simple principle that is difficult to practice. You may know that you need to develop your level of leadership skills, and you may want to make it happen. But with all the demands on your time and energy, it can be extraordinarily difficult to do so.

The ALA is a highly effective, time efficient system for upgrading your leadership, on the job and in real time. In 6 hours a month plus two retreats, over the course of a year you can develop the skills you need to play at the next level of your game, so you can experience success in your business and freedom in your life.





 

You Are a Leader


You’re smart, you’re accomplished, and you care deeply about your work, your family, and the people in your life. You’ve always known how to reach for that next level, and you’re not willing to settle for less than what you know is possible.

So What's the Problem?


Well, being you is not easy. You’re the one who is supposed to have all the answers, but instead you find yourself constantly burdened by tough questions that don’t seem to have straightforward answers:

  • How can I be less stressed and more productive?
  • How can I hold people accountable in positive ways?
  • How can I create greater alignment among my team?
  • How can I resolve emotionally charged conflicts?
  • How can I motivate myself and others in more effective ways?
  • How can I support others to grow and develop?

 

Pushing Harder Doesn't Work


These questions often involve values that seem like they are in direct conflict with one another, so the harder you push, the worse things seem to get. And the stress is starting to take its toll on you, your team, your family, and the rest of your life. The more you dig into the day-to-day challenges, the more it can seem like they’re connected to a much bigger problem.

What’s Going On?


You’re not wrong. It’s just that the bigger the problem, the deeper the solution needs to be. And the tools you’re used to using probably aren’t working. Traditionally, most leadership training has focused on two areas: thoughts and behaviors, focusing on best practices for what good leaders do, and how they think. The problem is that most of the real challenges you will face as a leader, either in yourself or in others, have deeper roots and can’t just be solved at this level. That’s where we come in.




What is Authentic Leadership?

Authentic Leaders understand that in today's world, the important problems require collaboration and creativity rather than just command and control. They serve their values more than their egos. They focus on their customers more than their competitors. They see their job as bringing attention to the important questions rather than just having the right answers. And they tend to be extraordinarily effective.
