Feedback from Past Participants & Executive Sponsors
"It was great to work with a group of future business leaders in the company. We had many opportunities during the retreat to troubleshoot issues and collaborate on real business and professional issues."
"The Leadership Advantage will give you an edge on others who have not gone through a leadership development program or who do not get to interact with others in different levels and different positions throughout the company. The schedule may look busy, but the program is awesome at providing support and tools to your advantage to use with coworkers and peers."
"I think this gave [participants] confidence in knowing that they are looked upon as high-potentials and that they are a part of the organization's future leadership group. It gave the executive team confidence in knowing we've got some top-notch leaders ready to come in and take over when we have to leave - we won't lose a beat."

What's Different About TLA?
Customized development. TLA is designed around the participants. Program curriculum and development plans are tailored to meet participant and organization needs, and are based on leadership assessment results, 360 results, and input from the executive sponsor and participant.
Multi-modal learning. Go beyond typical classroom instruction. Workshop sessions include case studies, discussion, reflection, group activities, and real life practice. Training is designed to facilitate knowledge implementation, skill sustainability, and continuous learning.
Addresses real organizational issues. Apply leadership concepts and tools to address a real organizational imperative in a 4-month capstone project chosen by the executive sponsor and participant.
The 70-20-10 Rule
Research1 indicates that the best development experiences consist of:
- 70% on-the-job experience
(challenging assignments, etc.)
- 20% support
(feedback, mentoring, coaching, etc.)
- 10% formal training
(seminars, webinars, etc.)
Many leadership development programs apply the 70-20-10 rule in reverse, with heavy emphasis on formal training, and little or no support or on-the-job experience. As a result, development ends when the leader leaves the classroom. Not this program. TLA closely models the 70-20-10 rule for sustained skill development and on-the-job knowledge transfer well beyond the program. Every program component is tailored to the unique needs of the leader and the organization, making TLA a comprehensive, individualized development experience.
