Thousands of faculty and staff across North America have benefited from The Five Paths to Leadership® Self-Assessment because it’s an intuitive and powerful tool that helps them to better understand their natural leadership style and how it changes under stress. By growing their self-awareness, they become more adaptive and responsive leaders, which positions them well for current or future leadership roles, whether in the classroom, in committees, or at the department/unit level.   

In addition, insights gained through the Five Paths to Leadership® Self-Assessment can be used to improve interpersonal and team dynamics. For instance, the Five Paths model can help you and your teams to:   

• Run more effective meetings.   

• Communicate with others in a way that supports and nurtures them.   

• Delegate work in a way that does not feel additive.   

• Create more effective strategic plans.   

• Make better decisions.   

Please note that certification enables you to facilitate Five Paths workshops for as many audiences as you’d like, at the organization of your current employment. Facilitation of the Five Paths to Leadership® workshops outside of your organization is expressly prohibited.  

Register early—space is limited to 30 attendees to preserve an intimate and productive experience for all.  Prefer to do this facilitator training in person? Check out our in-person programs.
