Columbia Offers Personal Leadership and Success Program

Columbia Business School is offering a personal leadership and success program through its executive education program. Personal Leadership and Success integrates recent findings in psychology, neuroscience and cognitive behavior therapy with explorations of the inner lives of great leaders.

The Personal Leadership and Success program takes the view that to succeed professionally one needs to develop another dimension of leadership consisting of the ability to understand and direct one’s internal environment, goals, motivations, mindsets and emotions.

This three-day program offers a distinctive approach that integrates recent findings in psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive behavior therapy with explorations of the inner lives of great achievers such as Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln and Nelson Mandela.

Until recently, the only way to explore this mastery of the inner environment has been through the teachings of philosophers, prophets, or self-help “gurus.” These historical and modern sources of wisdom essentially rely on faith while Personal Leadership and Success replaces this approach with scientifically validated, practical insights and techniques for understanding and mastering one’s inner environment.

Upcoming Sessions for the program are July 22-24, 2014,December 3-5, 2014,April 22-24, 2015 and December 9-11, 2015.
