The Northwest Leadership Forum |
|
Effective leaders create extraordinary results through five core
attributes, around which the NWLF process is built. |
|
What’s
different about this? The process is
integrated with the realities of the workplace—it deals with real, current
issues; development is sustained over a period of one year, driven and guided
through 10 one- or two-day sessions; course content is assessment-based and
focused on specific needs and goals of participants. The NWLF also focuses on
leadership rather than on broader management issues. Who
is the Forum for? The Forum is a
resource for organizations that might be planning a leadership transition in
one to three years; or be committed to strengthening the effectiveness of
their existing leadership team; or be seeking to retain, motivate and develop
the next generation of leaders. The process provides
participants with guidance, support, feedback, ideas and tools to accelerate
and strengthen their development as leaders. |

About C2K |
|
The most powerful teacher of leadership
is experience; and experience can be enriched and supported in several ways. · Study and understand the attributes of successful leaders, perhaps
through a mentoring relationship. · Develop a higher level of self-awareness, including insights into
personal strengths and development needs. · Seek and accept new challenges to test your skills and growth. · Learn how you are perceived by peers, supervisors and subordinates. · Develop a personal model for leadership, and a path for development. · Build a group of peers with whom you share ideas and experiences. C2K is a founding partner of the Northwest Leadership
Forum: a focused series of assessments, resources, processes and guidance to
help today’s managers develop into tomorrow’s leaders. A fast track for leadership development In a series of off-site
workshops, participants work with a group of peers and advisers to explore
and develop their leadership behaviors and skills. The Forum process has four
phases: assessment and goal-setting, preparation, the workshop program
itself, and continuing learning. The program includes
extensive self- and peer-assessment, feedback, coaching, real-time case
studies drawn from participants’ own experience, class discussions and
exercises. The Northwest Leadership Forum develops leaders within a
framework that emphasizes five core attributes of successful leaders. These
are studied in the context of six primary leadership issues, supplemented by
additional issues identified by Forum participants. Work to assess,
understand and develop leadership skills and attributes takes place in a
small group of peers, and against a background of current case experience. Faculty members include educators and consultants who are
also successful leaders. For more information, visit
