Leadership-in-a-Box® Overview – 3 min
After spending over a decade in Fortune 500 organizations, I realized that most corporate leadership training fits into a variety of enterprise needs:
- Talent Lifecycle Initiatives (e.g. monthly new manager orientation or quarterly high potential program)
- Strategic Priorities (e.g. important topics everyone receives this year)
- Intervention (e.g. something must be addressed immediately)
- On-Demand Access (e.g. programs ready for anticipated requests)
Some organizations decide to build their own programs internally, but many need outside partners due to time constraints, access to expertise and cost-efficiency. Unfortunately, I realized that most vendor-produced training (even from world-class vendor organizations) doesn’t meet the needs of today’s corporate learners, internal facilitators or program administrators in terms of ease, timing, accessibility, pricing structure and actual performance improvement.
Leadership-in-a-Box® is a best-in-class programming solution designed to support busy enterprise leaders by addressing the most crucial leadership behaviors and is provided at a low enterprise cost.

All Leadership-in-a-Box® topics can be conveniently delivered by internal leaders (either in-person or virtually), such as HR business partners, trainers or team leaders. Preparation time is minimal and there are no certification requirements. Since the workshop content is licensed, there are no per-class or per-person costs.
