The Leadership Challenge Workshop Learning Experience

Leaders begin by taking the LPI 360 assessment. They rate themselves on the frequency with which they exhibit 30 proven leadership behaviors as self-reported and observed by their peers.

The learning culminates in a facilitator-led, in-person, or virtual training workshop, where the leader’s report comes to life through powerful activities and impactful discussions.
