Leadership Development

Most companies invest in their employees under the heading “professional development,” which often includes a week-long trip to Harvard, the Carlson School, or Center for Creative Leadership. We believe it’s much more—it's about building leadership capacity in the organization, on the job. We find that organizations that take leadership development seriously are organizations invested in building capacity for growth. Our approach to leadership development tackles both individual growth and organizational results through two different, highly effective leadership development avenues: Executive Coaching and Action Learning. We focus our leadership development energy in these two areas because our clients tell us again and again that they work.

Executive Coaching
When it is done right, executive coaching can be one of the most powerful investments an organization can make for developing its leadership in ways that impact the business. We focus on executive coaching to maximize the development of high potential talent who are important to the organization’s success. MDA offers a range of coaching programs to meet the leadership development needs of different levels of the organization from new manager to the CEO.

Action Learning Programs
Executives understand the value of leadership development, and they expect a direct correlation to achieving business results. MDA’s Leadership Jump Start Programs and Action Learning Programs are invigorating learning experiences for leaders who need to: build a culture of accountability, drive down costs, implement quality control programs, lead organizational change, or launch new initiatives.
