Insights Discovery For Leaders
Our 2-day leadership program for leaders and leadership teams at all levels.
Bring out your best as a leader!
This customized program is designed for small groups of leaders within the same organization who want to explore and increase the effectiveness of their leadership styles.
Leadership is not the same as management. The best leaders inspire and motivate by promoting a compelling vision and developing and communicating shared goals and common values.
The program uses the Insights Discovery Instrument as a foundation for exploring different leadership styles. It is designed to be highly interactive, using role-plays, and group exercises, with space for individual work and reflection, along with varied presentation formats. Participants experience how their personal leadership style affects others and learn to consciously adapt their style(s) depending on the situation.

Online Evaluator
Approximately 2 weeks prior to the program, participants will be invited to complete the Insights Discovery online evaluator. Completing the evaluator is confidential and takes approximately 15-20 minutes.
Approximately 2 weeks prior to the program, participants will be invited to complete the Insights Discovery online evaluator. Completing the evaluator is confidential and takes approximately 15-20 minutes. The resulting profiles are given to participants during the program. They contain a range of personal information and are treated confidentially. If an Insights Discovery profile is disclosed, this should only be done at the request of the participant. Nevertheless, we usually find that participants feel very comfortable sharing the results with each other. This is probably because profiles do not differentiate between better or worse results, but highlight neutral, but important, differences in people’s behaviour and preferences.
Example Profile
We can deliver this program either in a virtual format or as a face-to-face session on-site or at an external venue.
