A New Option For Training Groups Of Your Company's Leaders!

Due to popular demand, there's a new GROUP PACKAGE for training groups of your leaders.

You can send up to 10 of your leaders to the 6-Week Certificate Program called The Leader As Coach. And you get significantly discounted group pricing!

Among the benefits are:

  • You pick your start date (choose a date that works for your leaders and the 6-week program will commence on whatever date you choose).
  • You'll get a weekly update on participant progress so you can see exactly how your leaders are progressing through the program.
  •  Your leaders will take 1 course per week for 6 weeks (see the curriculum below). They can work on the courses any time of day (whatever works best for them).  Each week, they’ll watch approximately 1-hour of a video course, and then complete one assignment to hardwire the learnings and take one brief quiz to ensure they learned that week’s content. 
  • You get "Talking Points Memos" for each module in the course so you can facilitate internal discussions on the content once the course is over.
  • Upon successful completion of the course, each of your managers will receive a Certificate in The Leader As Coach.
  • Once you purchase the group package, a team member from Leadership IQ will reach out to you in order to get your participant list and desired start date.

Your leaders will develop the coaching mindset, master emotional intelligence, discover the science of inspiring goals, hone your influence & communication skills, learn to build buy-in, and so much more!

It’s a safe bet that the best leaders you’ve ever worked for did more “coaching” than “managing.” They didn’t just tell you what to do or criticize you for messing up. Instead, they listened to your ideas, challenged you to learn and grow, served as your sounding board, and took the time to discover what really makes you tick. In other words, the best leaders exemplify The Leader As Coach!

Here's the 6-week curriculum:

  • WEEK 1: THE SCIENCE OF GREAT COACHING
  • WEEK 2: THE SCIENCE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
  • WEEK 3: THE SCIENCE OF INFLUENCE AND COMMUNICATION
  • WEEK 4: THE SCIENCE OF HARD GOALS
  • WEEK 5: THE SCIENCE OF INCREASING ACCOUNTABILITY
  • WEEK 6: THE SCIENCE OF LEADING CHANGE

Here's The Detailed Program Curriculum:

Each course in the program includes approximately 1-hour of video presentations. In addition to the video modules, each week will include one assignment and one brief quiz to ensure you learned that week's content. Participants can expect to spend around 2 hours per week on viewing the video modules and coursework. Here is a listing of all the courses in The Leader As Coach program, with the duration of each video module (mm:ss).

WEEK 1: THE SCIENCE OF GREAT COACHING (01:08:23)

Managing has its place, especially when there’s a crisis, but it’s coaching that instills inspiration and confidence in people and challenges them to grow, develop and unleash their full potential. Coaching is intrinsic; it examines psychological considerations: Why do you want to do certain things? Where do you see yourself going? What is it that’s driving you right now? that encourage employees to develop emotional connections to their work so they want to be high performers. We’ll work with you on developing the five big coaching competencies of Mindset, Goal-Setting, Framing, Listening and Questioning.

  • Module 1 – The Coaching Mindset (12:05)
  • Module 2 – Coaching with HARD Goals (21:19)
  • Module 3 – Positive Reframing (14:47)
  • Module 4 – Listening (20:12)
  • Module 5 – The Science of Great Coaching Quiz

WEEK 2: THE SCIENCE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (01:02:38)

Every great coaching leader has mastered emotional intelligence. Emotional Intelligence is more predictive of leadership success than raw brains or years of experience. People follow leaders with high Emotional Intelligence, and quickly leave leaders with low Emotional Intelligence. And a lack of Emotional Intelligence is one of the top reasons why new hires fail. Learn how to develop self-awareness, to read other people, and develop emotional management skills.

  • Module 1 – Emotional Intelligence Overview (11:03)
  • Module 2 – Self-Awareness (16:26)
  • Module 3 – Other-Awareness (20:49)
  • Module 4 – Emotional Management (14:20)
  • Module 5 – The Science of Emotional Intelligence Quiz

WEEK 3: THE SCIENCE OF INFLUENCE AND COMMUNICATION (1:00:24)

Coaching is based on being a great communicator and highly influential. The cardinal rule of influence is the more you understand others, the more they’ll understand you. But not everybody likes to give and get information in the same way. We’ll show you how to diagnose the levels of emotional connection and linearity people want in a given situation so you can adjust your communication style accordingly. You’ll further strengthen your influencer abilities as you learn about the 7 Driving Needs that motivate people in workplace and start to put into practice techniques for developing informational and expert power.

  • Module 1 – 7 Driving Needs (22:05)
  • Module 2 – Sources of Power (15:20)
  • Module 3 – Communication Styles (22:59)
  • Module 4 – The Science of Influence and Communication Quiz

WEEK 4: THE SCIENCE OF HARD GOALS (01:21:14)

Great coaching REQUIRES setting robust goals! Yet most leaders fail to set goals that are gutsy and challenging enough to result in something great. HARD Goals (Heartfelt, Animated, Required and Difficult) “amp up” regular goals and push us past road blocks like achievable and realistic (found in SMART goals). We’ll draw from the research behind the bestseller HARD Goals to show you how to set meaningful goals for yourself and others that result in great achievements.

  • Module 1 – Overview (14:34)
  • Module 2 – HARD Goals Are Heartfelt (23:28)
  • Module 3 – HARD Goals Are Animated (17:53)
  • Module 4 – HARD Goals Are Required (12:24)
  • Module 5 – HARD Goals Are Difficult (12:55)
  • Module 6 – The Science of Hard Goals Quiz

WEEK 5: THE SCIENCE OF INCREASING ACCOUNTABILITY (00:56.27)

Great coaching creates great accountability. Accountable employees take ownership, they’re passionate, driven, collaborative, open, and they make absolutely no excuses. Leadership IQ has studied hundreds of organizations that have accountability hardwired into their culture and we’ve identified the best practices that drive their success. We’ll share scripts and techniques for leading employees out of the emotional and reactive stages of denial, blame, excuses and anxiety so they become more logical, independent, self-sufficient and accountable.

  • Module 1 – Overview (11:02)
  • Module 2 – Stages of Accountability – Denial (7:19)
  • Module 3 – Stages of Accountability – Blame (9:06)
  • Module 4 – Stages of Accountability – Excuses (9:40)
  • Module 5 – Stages of Accountability – Anxiety (10:12)
  • Module 6 – Stages of Accountability – Accountability (9:08)
  • Module 7 – The Science of Increasing Accountability Quiz

WEEK 6: THE SCIENCE OF LEADING CHANGE (01:00:26)

Coaching is fundamentally about creating change. But change isn’t always easy: a Harvard Business School study found that 70% of change efforts fail and a Leadership IQ study found that mismanaging change is the number one reason why executives lose their jobs. Do we need any more reasons to master this critical skill? We’ll show you how to hardwire change into your employees and organization by creating the urgency and direction people need to successfully make the transition from where they are now to where you want them to go.

  • Module 1 – Understanding the Basic Model of Change (10:53)
  • Module 2 – The Why, Where and How of Change (19:02)
  • Module 3 – Readiness for Change Assessment (9:21)
  • Module 4 – Overcoming Personal Resistance to Change (12:27)
  • Module 5 – The AVER Technique (8:43)
  • Module 6 – The Science of Leading Change Quiz
