Program Structure

• This program has been optimized for virtual delivery using the Zoom platform. The program begins with a
sixty minute Program Launch between the Program Facilitator & the Program Participants.

• The participants will then complete some online leadership assessments which will act as a baseline for their
development over the following six month leadership development journey. This is followed by a three way coaching conversation between each participant, their manager and the program facilitator to identify and align on the leadership skills that the participant will need to focus on and develop over the six month period.

• The program consists of twelve 90 minute virtual modules and after every four modules each participant will
meet for individual 90 minute executive coaching sessions with the program facilitator. The purpose of these
one-to-one sessions is to support the participant to apply their learnings from the modules into their daily roles.

• This six-month program will complete with a final three-way coaching session between the participant, their manager and the program facilitator to ensure that the participant has developed all of the leadership skills that they set out to develop.

• Finally, the program facilitator and the staff at the Mindful Leader Office will be available to provide additional
support to all participants throughout the six month journey.
