“I have been in a leadership role for a majority of my career and sought higher education learning in the field of leadership studies. That said, this course helped to reframe many familiar concepts about leadership in a way that meaningfully generated new thought and ideas on how to face common problems. I really appreciated how rooted it was in the formation of thought around strength-based leadership. I found the program overall to be well structured, insightful and overall value added for my career.”

–– Amy H. | Senior Director, Global Operations
