Take charge of your present and shape your future
Many leadership development programs draw on case studies and inspiring stories of leaders as learning tools, but IMD’s High Performance Leadership takes a unique approach. In this program, YOU are the case study.
Since 2002, High Performance Leadership has taken thousands of executives on a transformational journey of self-discovery that has enabled them to play to win instead of playing not to lose.
Over six days, you will work on yourself, your leadership style, your vision, and your impact on your team and organization. By exploring your unique leadership roots and patterns, you will identify the strengths that you can leverage and learn to let go of what is holding you back. You will discover how to focus your mind for success and create a trusting environment that allows others to develop their potential because they feel safe to be creative, experiment, and take risks.
You will learn the techniques that successful business leaders, world-class athletes, musicians, and artists rely on to consistently achieve great results. In addition, you will explore the principles of hostage negotiation and their application to leadership, so that you understand how to avoid being a psychological hostage to anything or anyone – including yourself – again. At the end of the program, you will have the keys to unlock your full potential and become the leader you want to be.

High Performance Leadership is the highest quality program I have ever experienced. Beyond tips and techniques, it gets to the core of who you are and how your life experiences have impacted the leader you are today. Prepare to be challenged, supported, and inspired… and to leave knowing how you can lead at your best.

The program resonated with me because it was about the real fundamentals of leadership, human behavior and emotions, and how you want to lead your life. You really connect with who you are, and by understanding the events that have shaped you and letting go of certain things, you are well positioned to lead others.

The program helps remove the blocks that stand in the way of resolving tough problems and develops the skills you need to create trust and a positive mindset in your company. It will stimulate your heart, mind, and spirit, and take you to new places in your personal and professional lives.

I attended the program after a personally difficult period. I was lost, full of fear about the future, and living in survival mode. Over five days, the case studies, stories of grief, stories of resilience, and deep reflections gave me perspective on what is truly in my control and the assumptions I was living with. I left the program with courage, hope, a renewed sense of curiosity about the world, and clarity about my secure base.
