Extraordinary, innovative leadership development training, mentoring, coaching, and evaluation is available to professionals in the Tallahassee area! In 2013, Tallahassee Community College joined forces with Gabrielle Consulting to provide unprecedented leadership development opportunities to equip talented professionals. Two cohorts of diverse leaders represent industry, small business, government, nonprofits, and education in the Leadership Excellence And Development (LEAD) program of the Leadership Academy of Tallahassee:
- Emerging leaders including young professionals, career changers, and those seeking leadership roles (limited to 8 participants)
- Seasoned leaders including executives, supervisors, and those seeking to leave a legacy of leadership and influence (limited to 4 participants)
The 12-month program was developed by Dr. Gabrielle K. Gabrielli and takes a systematic approach to leadership development by providing rigorous curriculum, assessments, coaching, mentoring, and formative and summative evaluation. In addition to classroom-based instruction, leaders remain connected via technology including a website portal, discussion forum, and monthly sessions. Investment in the yearlong comprehensive is $1998 for emerging leaders and $2498 for seasoned leaders. Apply today to join the 2016 Leadership Academy at http://bit.ly/leaderapp2016
The leadership development program enhances leaders’ skills and directly benefits their influence on others, in turn positively impacting the bottom lines of organizations they serve. The Leadership Academy provides meaningful resources and tools leaders take back to their workplaces to shape their careers, innovate within their organizations, and be active participants engaging in intentional transformation individually, professionally, community-wide, and beyond.
Dr. Gabrielle K. Gabrielli is a graduate of Leadership Tallahassee and saw a need to not only expose citizens to leaders in our community, but also to help develop leadership skills in a systematic way. The Leadership Academy was a 10-year dream of hers that came to fruition in 2013. The Tallahassee leadership program began when select leaders took part in a focus group to provide guidance including naming the program and giving insights about specific needs. A Leadership Advisory Council provides ongoing advice.
The 2016 curriculum includes leadership topics ranging from communication to problem solving, critical thinking, creativity, conflict resolution, emotional intelligence, and building a legacy by developing others. The draft schedule is at http://gabrielleconsulting.com/docs/LeadershipAcademySchedule2016.pdf though participants have input into the schedule if they have conflicts. All sessions are live streamed and recorded for anyone who must miss a session to watch on the website portal. The inaugural class that graduated December 2014 reported a 50% increase in their leadership skills as a result of what they learned! On a 1-10 scale, 10 being the highest, they rated their leadership skills as a 6.2 in the beginning of the academy and a 9.2 after the year of learning.
