The Skill Kit For Leaders Program and Materials

The Skill Kit for Leaders (SKL) core-competency program, is based on the belief that leaders need to “practice” the leadership, behavioral-based competencies that research shows will advance their careers and the success of the organization. Busy leaders don’t have time to come up with these activities and resources themselves. They need practices that can be customized to their work-sites, and used “real-time,” on-the job, to build these leadership “muscles.” And, they need support for gauging their progress on behavior changes that make a difference. The robust, comprehensive, SKL 42 Leadership Competency Resource units and “Tool-Kit” for working with it, provides the customized solution for any leader in any role, in any size organization.

The Skill Kit for Leaders Program (SKL) is known as a highly-validated, proven, but budget-friendly program to resource leadership competency development. It is electronically-delivered and pass-word protected, and its units and tools can be used on mobile devices. The SKL has evolved from over 25 years of work in leadership and organization development coaching and consulting. It is based on the same Harvard Leadership Studies that have been a foundation for most competency models.
