Leading Others

The Drake Leading Others Program is an open-enrollment program designed for leaders seeking transformation and accelerated growth.

The program curriculum and format provides participants with the knowledge and tools that enable them to guide their organizations through periods of both change and stability.

Our business and professional development programs leverage the Drake University signature learning experience: one that is transformative, empirical, readied and international. The program includes nearly 100 hours of orchestrated learning and is supported by a cross-industry cohort.

Who Should Attend?

This program has been specifically designed to provide those in mid-to-senior level leadership roles with tools and techniques to understand what “outstanding leadership” looks like, and emerge with a relevant leader development plan and business plan that is readily implementable within the organization.

The Format
