ASCENT Leadership Program

ASCENT Leadership Program

ASCENT's mission is to build transformational leaders. Transformational leaders are purposeful, values-based, visionary, ethical and inspiring. They strive for increased self-awareness through continuously seeking feedback from all sources and incorporating this feedback into their development. They identify needed change in organizations and enroll others in co-creating the desired future state.

ASCENT programs and services help individuals at all levels understand the thinking and behavior behind their results. Our thinking and behaviors can become the hard-wired ways we approach our work and life that often can go unexamined. ASCENT seeks to help leaders remove the mystery of the impact they are having on those they lead. Awareness helps us close the gap between our intent (how we think and hope we're showing up) and our impact (how others experience us).
