Leadership...
is learning

At CLI, we believe that our work is capacity and competency-based, but more importantly, it is community-specific. Our curriculum relies on an in-depth understanding of each client or the specific community we are working with. Leadership development does not happen in a vacuum; context is critical.

Coaching

The Cooperative Leadership Institute coaches managers and executives and utilizes a systematic process approach called the CLI Business Success Cycle. CLI has identified Five Keys of Excellence that unlock sustainable operational excellence:

• Leadership
• Performance
• Reward / Recognition
• Satisfaction
• Growth

Our client partners work closely with the Cooperative Leadership Institute to ensure co-alignment of these Five Keys of Excellence. Three disciplines are achieved with each client partner:

• Create a Maven Group of innovators and actors that co-create consistent company-wide messaging and programs regarding the Five Keys of Excellence
• Establish accountability measures and outcomes that are reviewed and ratified by Grassroots Group and implemented by the Maven Group
• Develop leadership and management capacities essential to achieving 100% fulfillment of the Five Keys of Excellence
