Leadership Challenge

3-Day Leadership Challenge®

September 16-18, 2024 at Camp Joy (two-night stay)

Registration has closed. We hope you can join us in 2025!

The Leadership Challenge® is an intense and interactive three-day program that helps you tap into your personal leadership skills through a variety of activities. As you'll come to learn through The Leadership Challenge, leadership isn't about titles. It's not about the position you hold. It's about the way you behave, the way you influence and the way you inspire. And each of you needs to serve as leaders as you work toward your shared vision.

The past few years have been extraordinarily challenging for everyone, and especially nonprofits. You had to figure out dramatic new ways to serve people, obtain necessary funding and resources, and keep employees. Burnout and fatigue took their toll. Hopefully, the road ahead will be less COVID-impacted, but the number of and intensity of challenges will only continue to grow.

This is why The Leadership Challenge is so important for you as a nonprofit leader right now. It will help you develop ways to find success in spite of the increasing difficulties you face.

4 things:

The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership you will learn are understandable, relevant, and applicable. Those who have already attended the program will tell you that they were able to immediately start leading in better ways.
The 30-plus years of research supporting this model of leadership continues to this day. There are decades of evidence proving that the program leads to higher results.
You leave the program with a number of options on how to lead more effectively, not simply with more work to do. It can actually reduce the feelings of overwhelm, which many are facing today.
It is regarded as one of the premier leadership development programs, available around the world.

The Leadership Challenge® includes a 360 assessment, the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), which is a simple, 30-question inventory. The feedback it provides is very understandable and usable. It actually provides people with a solid roadmap for change.

This is a great program for a few team members to participate in. Studies show that leadership development helps with employee experience and retention.

The program is limited to 24 participants and a max of 3 people per organization. We are proud to keep the program affordable - this same program goes for upwards of $2,000 by other providers! This program is made possible by Wiley Publishing, International Leadership Associates, and Camp Joy as part of a “Gift of Leadership” program.
