Leadership Development
If one way we define a leader is by the way they help move people into action, then it would make sense to give leaders the tools necessary to achieve and sustain their objectives. Major corporations such as Google are finding great leaders are those who can make connections and are accessible to their teams - more so than a leaders technical skill! So, it maybe those amazing technical skills that help you get in the door, but it will be the "soft" skill that help you rise once you are there!
We developed opportunities to build those skill in a unique way that will make it stick! Jump also can customize your program based on your need - do you need to create a leadership development program or enhance what you already have in place? Here are a few courses we developed that you can incorporate into your existing training program.
Leader with a Thousand Faces
Is leadership born or bred? Some people have it - some don’t - right? We believe the choices you make along your journey influence the type of leader you will become. This course is inspired by Joseph Campbell’s “Hero’s Journey” where we look at the patterns and themes that arise on paths to leadership. No one path is the same for everyone, but there are themes and stages which all leaders endure. This program will not define a specific leadership style - it is the exploration of the experience, which in turn, will influences the leadership style you adopt! As you’ll see, every leader has taken some form of the leadership journey!
