Foundation & Assessment
We start by understanding your current role and leadership challenges. This isn't about testing what you know — it's about identifying where you want to grow and what obstacles you're facing.
Communication & Team Dynamics
Finance professionals often struggle with translating complex information for different audiences. We focus on practical communication strategies and understanding team personalities.
Project Management & Client Relations
Managing multiple deadlines while keeping clients informed requires specific skills. We work through real scenarios using case studies from our instructor's current practices.
Advanced Leadership Applications
The final phase involves working on an actual project with your mentor. This gives you real experience while providing valuable support to a working practice.
