The Training & Development Leadership Academy Program provides City Leaders with a unique opportunity to sharpen their skills and increase their contribution to organizational excellence and growth. Leaders will be empowered to take charge of their professional development by pursuing a clear path to leadership training that’s right for their agencies and their careers. DHR Training & Development understands that our managers and supervisors are among our most valuable assets.

The Training & Development Leadership Academy Program is based on a two-tier, three model setup that capitalizes on employees’ different bodies of knowledge. The models vary in curriculum and price schedule. At each tier and within each model, the participants’ leadership effectiveness, core knowledge, and critical skills are assessed for leadership success. The multi-faceted, comprehensive curriculum offered is created to build skills capacity throughout the enterprise at a faster pace.

Through this program, participants will be able to tap into the knowledge and expertise of subject matter experts, while developing strategies for driving individual, team, and organizational results. Through our time-efficient, highly practical curriculum, leaders will gain the tools and lessons needed to delegate effectively and communicate in a productive manner. In addition, they gain experience in employee development, using authority appropriately, and managing time and priorities.

Strong leaders make strong organizations. Leadership is a continual process of developing skills and expertise to meet evolving challenges and demands. Each session is tailored to meet the needs of the participants and provide an immediate return on investment.
