Emerging Leaders Certificate Program
The next generation of leaders faces a workplace in a constant state of transformation. Employees are placing a greater emphasis on purpose and engagement in their work and disruptive innovations are remaking entire industries. This new reality requires a new kind of leader. Most organizations have emerging leaders who are promoted based on their job performance and technical skills, but rarely have they received formal training on how to lead and manage others.
UNC Charlotte’s Corporate Training and Executive Education offers a leadership development program that will turn your emerging leaders into high-performance leaders by providing them with a toolkit on how to direct and manage, the importance of decision making and communication, best practices for managing their time and prioritizing tasks as well as the key principles of people management.
With our hands-on, interactive learning model, your emerging leaders will learn, associate, and practice new skills. These practical “how to” skills can then be used immediately in the workplace. This multi-day program provides a firm foundation on which participants can build their management career.
