At The Center for Leadership Studies (CLS), our goal is to turn potential into performance by partnering to take your people from capability to sustained levels of achievement.
We understand the challenges of today’s workforce and have proven that by equipping your leaders with the skills to assess the situation, identify performance needs, problem-solve, communicate effectively and drive performance development, organizations can succeed with their people.

Speak a common language of performance Establishing a common language enables leaders, followers and the organization at large to gain alignment on the work, address barriers to success, communicate needs and provide support. |
Reduce time to autonomy When employees understand their roles and responsibilities within the organization and are given a framework to assess their own performance and communicate their needs, it accelerates the quality and pace of development. |
|
Adapt through change Adaptability is a core leadership skill and one that is necessary to lead effectively during times of change. Leaders that can assess a situation and adapt their approach based on their team’s and organization’s needs can balance success and engagement even during uncertainty. |
Empower accountability Leadership skills should be developed at every level of the organization. When accountability permeates the whole organization, the culture is ignited by high success and engagement. |
We believe that leadership development is not just a training event or an executive coaching session and real behavior change is the result of a sustained, multipronged training approach. There are five key building blocks we recommend in any leadership development strategy: defining the journey, course curriculum, personalized coaching, sustainment and measurement.
Learning journeys provide you and your leaders with a map for ongoing development beyond an individual training event. They allow you to plan how you will utilize additional tools and resources to extend the learning and ensure pull-through of what they learned in their training. This enables you to build skills in your leaders and work toward long-term organizational goals.
Training events are a critical part of the development process but learning and engagement can’t stop there. Sustainment resources remind your leaders of the concepts they learned and give them continuous opportunities for practice. From self-paced online modules to ongoing group conversations about the course content, our sustainment options are designed to maximize learning retention.
