Developing Pragmatic Leaders
Our approach and program
The BLG Leadership Academy is a fully integrated, cumulative program that trains individuals in the skills of pragmatic leadership. The program is based on over thirty years of sound academic research and real-world application, bridging the gap between academia and the world of practice.
The final test of leadership is results. A leader needs to execute a strategic vision using political and managerial competence: the ability to mobilize, negotiate, engage, and coach. These skills can be acquired, and are independent of charisma and personality.
The BLG Leadership Academy is comprised of four courses, each addressing a core leadership competency. All courses incorporate instruction, case studies, and exercises relevant to participants’ managerial or supervisory experience.
Who should attend
The BLG Leadership Academy is intended for managers and functional specialists with 5-7 years of supervisory or managerial experience. It is designed for individuals with excellent prospects for leadership within their organizations.
