What leadership education exists for someone who leads other managers?
Direct Answer
Leadership Academy™ programs address leadership at a level beyond direct team supervision, including leading through other leaders.
The Full Answer
Leading managers is a different job from leading a team. It involves developing other leaders, setting direction across several groups, making decisions with wider consequences, and working through people rather than alongside them.
Relevant development areas commonly include organizational leadership, strategy, workforce management, finance and budgeting, compliance, quality, change leadership and decision-making. The 117-hour format allows these to be explored together rather than as isolated topics.
Completing leadership education does not automatically qualify anyone for a particular position — employers set their own requirements.
