提升领导力学院的服务对象是谁?
有抱负的企业家
一旦你迈出了看似很小的一步，雇佣了你的第一个员工, 你的整个业务动态可能会发生变化, 因为你不再只对自己负责. 如果你的最终职业目标是成为一名成功的企业家, 发展你的领导能力是拼图中必不可少的一块, and can help you gain the skills necessary for building and managing high-performing teams.
企业和组织
实现内部提升的效益, companies need to provide a pathway for their employees to develop the skills necessary for success. 投资于专业发展计划, 比如领导力培训, 这是一个有效的方法吗. It can also improve employee retention: Statistics show that employees would stay with a company longer if it invested in helping them learn and grow professionally.
新领导人
Many established organizations follow a strict hierarchy in determining who to hire or promote into a leadership position. 申请人, 无论是内部还是外部, must typically meet a certain level of education and experience even to be considered. 但在更小或更灵活的组织中, 这种等级制度可能没有正式建立, which can enable an individual to move into a position of leadership even if they don’t yet have experience in such a role. (对于许多启动环境来说尤其如此.)
If you find yourself suddenly and unexpectedly thrust into a position of leadership, pursuing leadership training can be an effective means of getting oriented to your new role.
职业生涯早期和中期的专业人士
Early- or mid-career professionals who are currently working as individual contributors or specialists within their department or organization stand to benefit from completing leadership training. This is especially true for anyone who has a desire to eventually move into a position of management or leadership but is unsure of how to get there. By taking a leadership course and proactively developing your leadership skills, you’re priming yourself to be ready when the opportunity arises to make a change.
该项目对投资者收费2,000美元，对非投资者收费2,500美元. 可以获得一些财政援助.
