IMPACT COURSE

Building Strong Leadership Teams

AISH’s Leadership Impact courses are for four weeks, approximately 3-5 hours per week. Based on the same topic as the Skills course, the framework reflects what we know about great learning. Goals and activities are customized around your interests and needs.  Liz Duffy will engage you and a cohort group in practical, job-embedded discussions and activities designed for immediate application and impact.  Resources are curated and relevant and you’ll have the opportunity to reflect on your experience in a forum of colleagues.


Impact Course Outcomes


1) Analyze your leadership team and determine one of three pathways to enhance effectiveness:

  • Foster Collaboration - Explore and utilize tools and exercises with your team to better understand each other’s leadership styles and strengths to build safety, share vulnerability and establish purpose. Experiment with a meeting roles framework.
  • Develop a Diverse Team - Review relevant research on diversity and performance and examine the make-up of your leadership team using a leadership pipeline framework.
  • Make Productive Decisions - Utilize techniques for having productive conversations and tools for making decisions that will have an impact.

2) Identify three goals that will help you improve your leadership team over the next six to nine months.

3) Reflect upon learning, utilizing the collective expertise and experience of the group, to promote leadership growth within ourselves and with others.


SCHEDULE: This course is being revamped and will be offered again in Fall 2025.

COST:  $375 (AISH Members); $575 (Non-Members)
