SUMMARY:The Leadership Growth Group Program
DESCRIPTION:An engaging leadership development program for\n\n\n	Developing leaders\n	Challenging and stretching participants\n	Transforming organizations\n\nOverview\n\n \n\nLeadership Growth Groups are highly participative groups of professionals who want to increase their overall effectiveness as leaders and managers.
