 The Leaders'
Edge
Online Leadership Development Class
Let this be the year of increasing your positive influence as
a leader and your organizational well-being. I am offering you
my on-line Leadership course at the very low price of $ 39.95.
The Leader's Edge is an insightful approach to increasing power and
influence as a leader. It is based on Universal Truths, Organizational
dynamics, advanced human relations skills, and sound leadership principles.
The Leader's Edge helps you to remove the self-created barriers
to greater leadership influence and to enjoy and promote greater
organizational well-being.
This is about more than getting people to do what you want. It is about
experiencing joy in leading and in work. It is about getting past our
fears and hang-ups regarding communicating clearly with others, about
overcoming leadership insecurities, and about connecting to the incredible
power within us. It is about connecting with other people on a level
that works! It is about seeing the opportunities for increased success
and well-being. Be a more effective mover and shaker in your organization
This is how it works: Beginning March 17th, 2008, you will receive
the first class lesson in a pdf format. You will need Adobe Acrobat
Reader 5 or higher to open it. You can get Reader for free from www.adobe.com.
Each lesson will take about 15 to 20 minutes to read. You will be asked
to do certain exercises and make observations throughout the week. Schedule
in short intervals throughout the week. This is on the job instruction
and you will become your own instructor. Application will be made to
daily operations. On the following Monday you will receive the next
lesson. If questions arise, you may e-mail them to me. Questions and
responses will be e-mailed to the group as a whole on a weekly basis
so everyone can have the benefit of the question and response. First
names only will be shared unless you request to have no name identified
or to not have a question published at all. This course is your opportunity
to move to the next level or higher in your leadership!
This course is not for people who are "kinda-sorta"
into excellence. It is for committed people--- people like you
who really do have the intention to move forward.
Are you ready move forward? If so, say "yes" and
sign up.

How does the class work?
You receive class lessons every Monday in the form of a PDF

an hour and a half, spread out through the week. The lessons
will ask you to write down observations and apply learning to
your ongoing work.
Every Thursday you will receive a midweek update e-mail. This
will include questions and comments by participants and brief
inspirational thoughts. You have the opportunity to ask questions
or express other thoughts by e-mail. All questions will be responded
to and published on Thursdays. First names only will be used.
E-mail addresses will not be shared, however participants may
decide to be in contact with other participants by request.
There are no bells and whistles in this class--just uncommon
sense.
What is required
to take the class?
You will need a blank notebook or journal.
You need an e-mail address that will accept attachments.
Workplaces using Gwava and other blocking programs will need
to arrange for reception of the lessons.
You will need a copy of the book--Beyond Blaming: Unleashing Power and
Passion in People and Organizations, available at this site for $14
plus shipping.
What does it cost? The class is $39.95.
Are there any
other features and costs?
Yes, there are three options participants may choose.
Option 1: Take the DISC Behavioral Profile. A paper copy may
be ordered for $ 16 plus shipping or you may opt for the online
version at $ 30.00
Option 2: Assess your current leadership impact with a 360
degree leadership assessment. If you take this option, you will
be sent a hyper link, which you in turn will send to whoever
you want to assess you. A 360 degree means that you are assessed
by those around you--direct reports, those at your level, and
those above you in the organization. You choose who will assess
you. The assessment has 16 questions and allows for comments.
All results are confidential and sent to you. Participants can
be secure in knowing that their assessment is given in anonymity.
The cost for this option is $ 85.00. Up to 25 respondents may
participate.
Option 3: You may elect to be coached as you take this class.
This will involve a one hour per week telephone session with
a professional executive coach. The coach will work with you
to internalize and apply the learning. Coaching Sessions are
priced at $125 each. If you sign up and pay for five or more
coaching sessions you receive one more at no charge. In other
words, sign up for five and you receive six at no extra charge.
In this case you may decide to receive coaching every other
week, then one session at the conclusion of the class. It is
the participant's responsibility to set up the phone appointments,
make the call, and pay in advance. Cancellations must be made
24 hours in advance as coaches are often focusing part of their
day around your call.
You may take the class without any of the options.
The topics for
the ten week session include:
1. What Drives Organizations? Leader Awareness of the dynamics
in organizations.
2. What Drives People? Leader awareness of others.
3. What Drives You? Leader awareness of self.

This online class will ask you to observe self, others, and your
organization non judgmentally. You will be challenged to change
your own thinking and attitudes. True change comes from the inside
out. The greatest fear participants will encounter is the fear
of success. Many, if not most people have a fear of accepting
greater responsibility and power. This class will challenge you
to become more powerful.
