Inspire Leadership at Every Level

The skills that contribute to job success and advancement often differ significantly from those essential for effective leadership. Most roles demand technical expertise developed through years of education and training. Leadership, however, requires a shift from executing tasks to enabling others to excel. This transition demands a new set of skills, one that includes effective communication, team building, and strategic vision. Many organizations underestimate the challenge of this shift, leaving new leaders to navigate the change without adequate training or support.

To bridge this gap, SIGMA offers Leadership Development Workshops — engaging, practical competency development sessions designed to equip current leaders and prepare future ones.

Competency-Based

Each workshop focuses on one of the 50 competencies in SIGMA’s established Leadership Competency Framework.

Convenient

Sessions are 60-minutes long, delivered virtually* by one of SIGMA’s expert consultants.

Strategic & Practical

Learn evidence-based strategies for competency development and receive practical tips and tools designed for driving real change.

Experience the Power of Competency-Based Development

SIGMA’s Leadership Development Workshops are built on the foundation of our Leadership Competency Framework. This framework includes 50 leadership competencies, which are grouped into four key categories:

Cognitive leadership skills
Interpersonal leadership skills
Personal leadership qualities
Senior leadership skills

Competency models provide a standardized framework for hiring, performance management, and leadership development. They define a common language for behaviors essential to organizational success, which allows leaders to translate the organization’s vision and values into meaningful individual development goals.¹ This alignment not only engages employees in the organization’s mission but also fosters a strong sense of unity, purpose, and belonging.

SIGMA’s Leadership Development Workshops combine cutting-edge research with real-world application. Each workshop includes:
