The Leadership Series:
Bronze-Silver-Gold Medal

Three One-Day Class Sessions over a Three-Month Period

Definity University's Bronze-Silver-Gold Medal Leadership Series delivers critical insights and powerful knowledge about organizational leadership. Designed to instill the confidence and ability to be more productive, effective and motivated leaders, the three-month program reviews a wide array of topics in three core competency areas: Leadership, Communication and Change Management.

The curriculum development team has more than 50 years of experience in education, communication, leadership and process improvement training experience. We recently re-engineered the Leadership Series, enhancing the course content with even more practical and applicable content. This newly redesigned Leadership Series links the latest techniques with your personal business situation.

You will benefit from an exciting, interactive and participative learning experience led by hands-on instructors. The base knowledge and insights taught in the classroom sessions will be applied to your actual business challenges. You craft individual goals and apply theoretical strategies to real workplace issues via application assignments. This approach reinforces theoretical concepts, driving home key learnings and maximizing program value with sustainable solutions that can be implemented.
