“Over the past few years, SAIA has engaged with the Leadership Foundry to grow and develop our leaders. Randy and Brandon did a tremendous job understanding the needs of the team and worked diligently to create a program that was tailored to our group. By taking time upfront to further understand our team and organization, they put together engaging sessions that truly resonated with our leaders. They are experts at driving engagement in these sessions, whether in person or virtual, and our team left each discussion with a renewed sense of clarity and commitment.

The tailored approach of content creation and engaging sessions led by Randy, Brandon and the Leadership Foundry team were highlights among our team, and I would highly recommend The Leadership Foundry for any organization that is looking to improve culture, performance, and innovation.”

“Mueller Water Products has a long and rich history. Recently, we experienced a period of incredible transformation and change. To help with this transition, we partnered with The Leadership Foundry. Their comprehensive approach encompassed engaging individuals on the executive leadership team, the leadership team itself as well as our global senior leaders. While we all struggled with multiple, competing priorities, their work with us made a lasting and impactful impression on our organization and helped establish a language and a framework for our leaders.”

“As a growth stage company, both the team culture and leadership responsibilities are constantly shifting and evolving.  Our work with Brandon, Randy and the Leadership Foundry team utilized both individual coaching and executive education helping us maintain our incredible culture while “leveling up” in our leadership skills.  The education they provided was timely and we were able to implement them quickly for an immediate impact.”

Josh Hartmann, CEO, NexMetro

“The Leadership Foundry designed and ran a leadership development program for Secureworks over the course of two years, as we went through a significant model shift in our business.  The powerful combination of pragmatic application of techniques to make us better leaders, with one-to-one coaching sessions, created scaled personalization for our leadership team.  The result was not only greater alignment and consistency across people managers, but also signs of the lasting impact of practices from the Leadership Foundry that have stood the test of time since.”

LEADERSHIP FOUNDRY OFFERINGS

Leadership Foundry Modules

Our practical leadership content is based on decades of experience working with individual business leaders and their teams as they navigate the real challenges that they face in their organizations. Our tailored sessions can be delivered in formats ranging from one hour virtual sessions to full day, immersive experiences.

1:1 Leadership Coaching

When 1:1 leadership coaching sessions are combined with exceptional content, it takes leadership growth to another level. Whether you are pairing a leadership coach with our impactful digital library or facilitated sessions from one of our leadership experts, working with a coach achieves results.

Action Learning Projects

A powerful way to conclude any leadership development program is for participants to apply their learnings on “Action Learning Projects” designed to solve your real business challenges. Leadership Foundry Action Learning Projects have several important features that can help to not only grow your leaders but transform your organization.

GAP Feedback from Team Interviews

Our GAP interview process for senior team engagements allows us to hone in on the clear (and sometimes hidden) opportunity areas for the team.  By utilizing our proprietary interview format with each member of the team prior to the beginning of the engagement, our GAP interviews lay a foundation for optimal targeted work and a tailored engagement design.

Myers-Briggs® Assessments & Workshops

With the guidance of a Leadership Foundry certified Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI®) practitioner, your leaders will enhance their self-awareness and more effectively work with colleagues of different personality types at all levels with the world’s most widely-used personality assessment.
