Leadership Development

Build leaders who can navigate what's next.

Our Leadership Development Training equips leaders and teams with the frameworks, skills, and mindsets to drive innovation and lead through, rather than just survive, change.

Let's Talk

One well-designed facilitation session can break a logjam. But organizations that want to be consistently innovative need leaders who understand the conditions that make that possible and know how to create them.

Renaissance Teams offers Leadership Development Training for Innovation and Change Ready Teams, a program grounded in the same research foundation as our facilitation work. It is designed for leaders who want to move beyond one-time problem-solving events toward building organizations that think and adapt well over time.

What leaders learn

What this training develops

Understanding creative climate

Leaders learn to recognize the organizational conditions that support or suppress creative work, using the dimensions measured by Ekvall's Situational Outlook Questionnaire. They leave with a clear picture of their current climate and specific levers for shifting it.

Thinking style fluency

Leaders learn to recognize and leverage the different cognitive styles on their teams, based on FourSight and VIEW frameworks. They develop the ability to assign work in ways that fit how people approach problems, and to build teams that complement rather than duplicate each other.

Leading productive meetings

Leaders learn practical techniques for running more productive meetings and leading ideation, including how to separate divergent thinking, like generating ideas, from convergent thinking, like evaluating and selecting them. These are everyday leadership skills that make group work more effective.

Leading through change

Leaders develop a practical framework for understanding how people respond to change, what drives resistance, and how to build the organizational conditions that make change initiatives more likely to succeed.

Who it's for

Is this right for your organization?

This training is most valuable for organizations that:

  • Have tried to drive innovation and found that the culture isn't keeping up with the strategy
  • Are navigating significant change and need their leaders to model adaptive problem solving, not just manage compliance
  • Want to build internal capacity for innovation and change rather than remain dependent on outside consultants
  • Are preparing for a major initiative and want their leadership team aligned on how to think through complex problems together
