Transform Your Leadership Culture? How???

When we first created this exclusive group, the goal was to provide organizational leadership with an atmosphere for ongoing leadership development, a confidential environment for collaboration and feedback on the leadership issues they were facing, and to strengthen their relationships with the leaders from other businesses in the Harrisonburg, VA area. Not only have we done all those things effectively for several years, we've also been able to expand that model and offer it on-site as a quarterly executive retreat so organizations can be intentional about developing a strategic focus on their internal leadership development! The annual public group offered in the Harrisonburg area is limited to a maximum of 15 participants. This is a yearlong commitment with full group sessions being held quarterly. The 2025 public sessions are scheduled for Friday, January 17, Friday, April 18, and Friday, July 18 with the final session of the year being a full day leadership event (historically,  the LIVE2LEAD:Harrisonburg Experience and the Executive Summit held just afterward), tentatively scheduled for Friday, October 17. Each public session follows a very intentional structure to ensure all participants get maximum value from not only the content covered, but also from stronger relationships built with their peers in this group. January, April, and July sessions will follow this format:

  • 11:30a – 1:00p: Lunch with open discussion on action taken since the last session, with the opportunity to share successes and failures, and the opportunity to get input from others in the group.
    • New for 2025: A slightly expanded lunch session combining our IMPACT Leadership Academy participants (to conclude their quarterly session) and Executive Leadership Elite Think Tank members (as we kickoff their quarterly session).
  • 1:30p – 2:00p: An exclusive lesson delivered by Dove Development & Consulting developed specifically for this group, based on the current needs of the participants.
  • 2:00p – 3:00p: Participants will break into small groups for focused discussion on the content covered in the lesson. As with the Executive Summit session at previous LIVE2LEAD:Harrisonburg events, this discussion will be based on tailored questions tied back to the topic at hand.
  • 3:00p – 4:00p: Participants will develop action steps based on the content of the session that they will be intentional about implementing in their respective organizations prior to the next quarter’s session.
  • Each session will close promptly at 4:00p with specific action items for all participants to apply and be prepared to report out on at the following session.

To ensure each participant recognizes measurable return on investment for their investment into this process, we also provide each participant with monthly Strategic Leadership Coaching sessions where we work with them to turn their desired action steps into actual business practices that impact their entire organization's leadership culture.

Whether you're a business owner interested in collaborating with other owners in different industries or you're an executive who's ready to transform the leadership culture in your entire team, this is a proven approach that's worked for dozens of executive leaders already! Let's talk about how it can help you too!

*2025 membership in the Executive Leadership Elite Think Tank will also include a seat at our 2025 Leadership Legacy Experience: Harrisonburg on June 13, 2025 (individual registration starts at $197/person).
