The Leadership Transition Program™
For organizations who want to provide an integrated, consistent leadership framework, Leadership Dynamics is proud to offer the Leadership Transition Program (LTP). Every day, the job you do requires specific work values and time applications combined with your skill set. LTP redefines what your work expectations are at your level and helps you to build the leadership skills, objective work values and time applications you need to succeed.
This is not a workshop or class like you’ve ever experienced before.
Developed around the principles introduced in “The Leadership Pipeline,” this 4-day course is designed to restore the balance of power back into the hands of leaders by building objective work values, time applications and leadership skills.
LTP is the original practical implementation of the strategies introduced in The Leadership Pipeline: How to Build the Leadership Powered Company.
Each leadership level has a distinct position that calls for adjusted values and time applications combined with new skills.
By defining what is expected of a leader at each level, LTP creates effective leaders who have clear objectives and the tools they need to succeed, at every stage of their career.
Team Dynamics/Team Building
High-performing teams are different; they have a clear focus, a high self-awareness, and leverage all assets.
Whether you have a newly formed team, a reconstructed team, or team that needs to be re-energized, you can help them to achieve higher performance. By utilizing the insights from the Predictive Index, participants learn about themselves and their team:
- Motivations, drives, behaviors
- Communication, delegation, decision styles, etc.
- Team gaps and how to address/improve
And, most importantly, how to adjust their own individual styles to improve work relationships and productivity.
(Many teams combine team building with strategic planning)

Creating long-term relationships with effective positioning
