Leadership Development
The Fit Leader’s Program™ provides aspiring and high-potential leaders with a unique and integrated leadership development experience. Combining tool-based workshops, professional coaching and leadership assessments, the Program increases the participating leader’s clarity, confidence, effectiveness and vitality.
For over a decade, more than 1,000 leaders have field tested and refined our Leadership Fitness model into a transformative experience that produces sustained excellence. The Fit Leader’s Program™, currently offered in North America and Europe, is facilitated only by Certified Leadership Fitness Coaches.

- Sorting and prioritizing opportunities competing for their attention
- Selling their ideas to colleagues and customers
- Creating a work environment in which high performers thrive
- Managing important change initiatives and transitions
- Increasing the creativity, innovation and adaptability of their teams
- Taming their self-sabotaging “inner voices” so self-doubt doesn’t get in the way of taking action
- Utilizing delegation as a means to accelerate the development of successor candidates

- Choosing foods, exercises and other healthy habits to maintain peak performance
- Adjusting to the communication preferences and conflict management styles of others

PROGRAM CONTENT
The Fit Leader’s Program™ introduces 32 unique tools and processes that create vibrant leaders who go on to enjoy balanced lives marked by personal health and sustained contribution. Sixteen of these tools and processes are taught in Year 1 of the Program, and the other 16 are taught in Year 2. Participants enroll in Year 1 of the Program, and then decide at the end of the first year if they would like to complete Year 2.
In each year of the Program, participants attend four full-day workshops, one every 90 days, during which they learn new tools in each of the four faces of Leadership Fitness: clarity, effectiveness, confidence, and vitality.
The Fit Leader’s Program™ is offered in two highly-interactive formats: city based, open enrollments programs or onsite. Participants enrolled in city-wide or open-enrollment programs attend all of their quarterly workshops with a cohort of leaders from other organizations. Participants enrolled on an onsite program attend quarterly workshops with colleagues from their own organization.
You will find this development experience of value for some or all of your high-potential leaders. The Institute’s unique blend of quarterly workshops, one-on-one coaching and leadership assessments is producing more effective leaders.
