IT IS ABOUT EFFICACY

 

Leadership as a practice

The context for leadership in Europe today includes dealing with global forces such as diversity, interdependence and continuous change. To take advantage of these forces, leaders must build adaptive capacity. This requires ongoing practice with deep learning, personal growth and developing new competencies. 

ECLP helps cultivate this by using innovative and integrative leadership development practices that generate real impact for you, your team, your organization and community.

What do we offer?

We offer customized hands-on and personal support for leaders to deepen their practice. This can be through individualized coaching, team development or companywide programs. The results are increased leadership effectiveness, greater complexity of awareness and the cultivation of collective adaptive capacity.

 

 

ECLP cultivates its own capacity by participating in a global community of thought and practice leadership. We bring together decades of experience in the fields of leadership development, communication and cognitive development to synthesize an innovative brand of work. Along with this, we draw on next generation resources and tools to support your leadership practice.

HOW DO WE WORK?

We begin with you; who are you, what is your situation, needs and desires? We use assessments that enable us to map your journey with you and give you penetrating insights into your impact on others and the core of your own thinking. We apply this to program design and delivery for individual coaching and for scaling this work to teams and organizations.

 

 

 

ECLP participates in research, and knowledge sharing experiences with international scientists in the field. Through this we continually evolve our practice of unfolding the wisdom of leadership.

The range of tools and services are focused on awareness-based leadership development.
