Fill your “leadership void”
with GPC Academy
Recently promoted to a leadership position and feeling overwhelmed?
Curious about becoming a leader and not sure what's required?
Currently trying to lead a team and struggling to get the results you want?
We all hear a lot about “corporate training”, where organizations invest in their people by developing them professionally.
But what if your organization doesn’t do this?
What if you’re expected to be a productive professional without being given the guidance to get you there?
What if you’re expected to lead others without ever being shown how to be a leader?
Non-profits, a small organization, or a large corporation without a learning and development department don’t have the resources to train you.
This gap in leadership training can get frustrating and stressful — which doesn’t do you, your family or your employer any good.
We can help you fill the void in your leadership abilities and impart the skills needed to improve your situation.
The GPC Academy’s course teaches you how to:

Put into play the activities and behaviors that make leaders and teams successful.

Establish psychological safety, which is the most important factor in a group's success.

Be able to ask for, receive, and give feedback productively within team environments.

Team Leadership, The Basics
We will go through the five components of high-performing teams and the leadership behaviors and activities that go with each: defined goals, clear roles/processes, productive conflict, routine debriefs, and psychological safety.
You will then create a personalized team leadership action plan to help you become the leader you want to be.
