All
our Leadership Programs instill
best practices, elevate skills and promote
consistency in the organization’s overall
leadership approach. Our programs focus on
clarity, defining success, results, and balancing
people with production. Successful leaders reduce
distractions and direct focus, especially when the
stakes are high. Direkt Approach’s methods for
honing these skills is unrivaled.
Direkt
Approach generates customized learning outcomes
connected to an organization’s values and
specified competencies. Our focus is on what
participants are able to do or know, rather than a
checklist of delivered content. We are committed
to moving the needle for leaders in real-life
application. We discuss what really happens when
the rubber meets the road in highly interactive
discussion, exercises, group work, content
delivery, Socratic questioning, demonstrated
learning and shared experience. Benefits of this
approach are engaged learners who can readily
apply the training. Our pricing structure is
designed to encourage series work, rather than a
high-ticket one-time silver bullet promise. We
develop a true partnership dovetailing with
existing training departments and leadership
initiatives.
Leadership
Essentials and Leadership Foundations
are two programs with specifically tailored
curriculum for Directors, Managers and
Supervisors. Your leaders are ideal candidates for
investment. Even athletes at the top of their game
practice, hone skills and strive to close any gap
in excellence. Lifelong learners are among the
most successful people in any industry. Contrary
to any stigma that training is for people who
aren’t succeeding, we find our programs are most
in demand at successful, rapidly growing
organizations.
Road
to Leadership is a training series offered
to high performers that are candidates for
leadership positions. Many clients have utilized
this series as a precursor for people who will/may
take on direct reports. The same skills it took to
succeed in a role are not necessarily the same
skills required of leadership. Often,
new-to-leadership personnel are thrown in to meet
demand while their own supervisor may not have
much time for developing them. This series focuses
on generating confidence and competence in
leadership, so new supervisors are not practicing
on employees.

Executive
Coaching
Executives
rarely have an opportunity to take their foot
off the accelerator. Invest in critical leaders
to strategically lead an organization. CEO’s,
Senior Management and seasoned leaders value
counsel to problem solve and further their own
skill development.

continuously seek improvement and growth. Direct
and kind communication is achievable, effective
and can absolutely coexist. This focus has
improved the communication skills of hundreds of
leaders in a wide variety of industries and
leadership roles.
Leadership
Coaching provides an opportunity for
mid-level leaders and new-to-role leaders to
remedy blind spots and add to their leadership
toolbox.
Focus on impact, deliverables and staff
development to round out a leader’s strengths.
Close skill gaps and define success.
Why wait ten years to gain ten years
experience?
DA
has expertise in resume writing, review and
interview preparation.
Shift
the emphasis from effort to results. Many
successful organizations operate from an
historical narrative with established ways of
doing business that yielded success and now find
themselves at the next step in the life cycle of
an organization. Often, the very things that
generated rapid growth are not the things that
will be successful at the next level. Introduce
discipline, data and awareness of what it takes
to achieve desired results and objectively
assess fully burdened costs. Move your
organization from experiential, opinion-based
talk about the work to measurement and
data-driven objectivity.

effective and efficient

structure to meet the needs

minimizes challenges. Respect builds unity.
