Grow And Develop World-Class Leaders with our

Leadership Academy

Our Leadership Development Programs Are Trusted by
Fortune 100 and Global 1000 Companies for Over 20 Years

Every Organization, Team, and
Individual Has a Leadership Gap.

The challenge is figuring out how to best close it.

We help you develop leaders at every level.

Unfortunately, leadership program offerings and content from training providers to the best global universities have been mostly generic and undifferentiated.

The content is typically a formulaic model and has little regard for understanding the uniqueness of you as a leader.

We don’t believe in a one-size fit all leadership model; we focus on personalizing your development to create the best version of you.

10x Leadership Competency Model

Aligning leadership development with a company’s strategy is one of the most important steps an organization can take.

Our 10x leadership competency model serves as the platform for program design. Customized content and structure define what the organization wants and expects from its leaders and employees.

Your business is unique.
No two organizations are the same.

That is why the Leadership Academy creates a customized learning experience that is aligned with your organizations’ business strategy and specific context.

The 10x Leadership Competency model is designed for “flexibility within a framework”.

Different strategies and contexts require different combinations of leadership competencies and behaviors to be most effective.

Organizations must decide the purpose for their Academy: Develop all leaders, or those leaders in pivotal or critical roles, or those who are vital to business outcomes.

The Academy was purposely designed and built on a modular learning format to allow for maximum flexibility and strategic alignment.

The 10x Leadership Competency Model
Structure and Design

Five competency clusters/pillars and 46 competencies.

Each competency cluster/pillar includes a series of competencies that are relevant to each level of leadership. Further, every competency in this model includes key behaviors that make up the competency.

The Model’s competencies are grounded by the need for ethics, integrity, professionalism and includes a commitment to continuously acquire new skills and knowledge.

Self Management

Self-Management Skills enable leaders to collect, store, process and analyze information to be shared with various stakeholders. These include the preparation and dissemination of external and internal reports per the professional accounting standards.

Leadership

Leadership skills are broken out into various levels. We focus on three types of leadership – peer, functional and strategic. All employees can be leaders; a title does not define someone who is a leader.

Management

Management skills focus on setting, measuring and achieving goals. This is done through planning, organizing, directing and controlling situations to reach or exceed their objectives.

Interpersonal

Interpersonal skills, particularly in communication,are used to influence the decisions, actionsand behaviors of decision-makers and others throughout the organization and various stakeholders.

Analytical

Analytical skills enable leadersto use their knowledge of the business and its environment to transform data into insight that enables organizations to evaluate their strategic positioning, the alignment of their business to their strategies, their performance and opportunities for the future.

The competencies are further defined at four proficiency levels:
Foundational, Intermediate, Advanced, and Expert.

We Use Assessments to Create
the Algorithm of You(10)

Discover each individual’s leadership style and type.

Identify exceptional leaders in each type and learn what fuels their success.

Share successful leaders’ practices to developing leaders who have similar strengths.

Algorithm pushes practices derived from excellent leaders to those who have the same leadership style and type.

Ongoing leader input continuously refines and personalizes the algorithm.

The Leadership Development Framework

Self-awareness is the key to understanding where you are versus where you need to be.
So, every leadership program we teach starts with our Advancement and Leadership Potential Report (ALPR) assessment.

Measure Impact & Results

Grounded in research and taken by over 250,000 leaders globally, we know what it takes to be a more effective leader. It is the foundational starting point for understanding each individual leader’s cognitive ability, leadership behaviors and personality.

Our Unique Process & Approach

Our belief is that leadership effectiveness is a combination
of three key elements: Mindset, Skillset, and Toolset.

Mindset

Leadership development starts with the CEO and senior leaders, but then moves progressively down the hierarchy. It is critical that everyone have a clear understanding of what great leadership looks like.

Equally important is developing these elements within the context of the organization’s strategy and stage of business. Leadership paths are detailed out from entry level to the executive team.

Skillset

Our Leadership Academy Methodology

Your business is unique. So are your employees. The Academy creates a learning experience that is aligned to your business and leadership needs.

The model highlights the range of skill sets required of leaders at all levels.
All courses, modules, micro modules and experiences are linked directly to the Model.

The 10x Leadership Academy is built on the foundation of the five learning pillars
that drive leadership effectiveness.

Management

Modular Learning Design

Each of our five pillars is broken down into courses, modules and micro-learning modules.

The content is structured into one of two learning paths: sequenced or learner-driven.

Learning paths, leveraging multiple learning styles, provide optimal, guided learning for all levels
of your workforce.

Modular learning provides maximum customization to address your company’s business strategy and context

Our Signature Skill- Building Courses

Our course content is based on our research-based 10x Leadership Competency Framework, covering more than 46 leadership skills.

Courses were created with structured, interactive and relevant content designed for all levels of the workforce.

Each course is designed to provide in-depth insights into specific business challenges and provide guided implementation solutions.

Course length ranges from one to five days.

Modules and Micro-Learning Modules

Every course is made up of multiple modules. Every module’s content is designed to stand on its own. In this way, learning is laser-focused and can also be accessed “just in time” to address “on-the-job” challenges.

Modules are typically 60 minutes, while micro-learning modules can be as short as two minutes and as long as 10 minutes.

Customize Your Program to Close Gaps

Courses, modules and content can be combined across the Academy competency platform. This enables you to create a truly purpose-built leadership program.

In all cases, the custom created Leadership model is linked to the performance drivers of your organization’s business strategy and context.

The Academy is staffed with high-caliber, seasoned instructors, with decades of experience in their respective field. All delivery is done through high-impact in-person sessions, mobile technology, on demand, blended learning and executive, group, individual and peer coaching.
