Leadership Training

The Dave Ellis Leadership Series

Upcoming Trainings

Topics

Each training has a particular focus indicated by the title, but the specific topics are determined primarily by the desires of the participants. Each training is tailored to the individual goals of the people who are attending.  More important than the topics covered is the process of your doing your best thinking for three days away from the normal distractions of work and family. During these three days you can focus on yourself, your leadership, and your future.

 

Topics usually include most of the following:

 

• Determining your role as a leader
• Leadership coaching
• Solving your biggest problem
• Creating detailed plans to reach your biggest goal
• Increasing creativity
• Clarifying in detail what you want during your entire life
• Changing habits
• Living an inspired life
• Creating breakthroughs in communication
• Managing worry and anxiety
• Achieving financial independence
• Managing stress
• Planning your future
• Creating work/life balance
• Creating motivation in yourself and others
• Managing your time and your tasks
• Organizing complicated projects
• Having more fun at work and at home
• Celebrating and appreciating yourself and others

Part of a comprehensive program

These leadership trainings are designed as part of a series that includes coaching and mentoring. The trainings are designed to enhance each other as well as to stand on their own. We encourage you to participate in three or four trainings and months of coaching and mentoring in order to gain maximum benefit from our services. Individualized coaching will powerfully support you in boosting your effectiveness to the next level of achievement.

 

The Dave Ellis Leadership Series with the accompanying coaching and mentoring carries a big promise.  We promise that you will dramatically transform the quality of your leadership so much so that you report this to be the single most valuable professional and personal development experience of your life.

Cost of the program

This includes four trainings and 14 months of weekly, results-oriented coaching and mentoring (approximately 60 hours). $20,000

 

Any one of the trainings can be purchased separately for $1,000.
Scholarships are available for the trainings.
Our coaching and mentoring can also be purchased separately.

This shift in leadership starts with you and then reaches out to the most important people in your life and then to your entire community – all the people who participate with you in the domains you lead. Create the next era of leadership for yourself that will bring us into a future that inspires us all. Become an effective and influential leader who motivates and contributes to others.

 

Your fellow participants in these events will be as committed to their success as you are. The entire group of men and women will be brimming with ideas and open to new possibilities. This is why we keep our events invitation only.

Please join us . . . again

People who return to our trainings and bring their coworkers and/or family form support systems that assist them to create the life they want. To make it easier for you to return with the most important people in your life, we offer a discount of $500 off your tuition when you bring others.

Training preparation

In a unique combination of one-on-one personalized coaching and specialized conference calls both before and after this dynamic training, you will enhance your effectiveness and results.

Pre/Post one-on-one coaching

Two pre-training coaching sessions (1 hour each)

This is your opportunity to clarify the specific problems you want to solve and the specific goals you intend to achieve in the training.  During this time you determine which two or three problems you could solve or goals that you could achieve to make this training worth your time and money.

Two post-training sessions (1 hour each)

This is your time to ensure that what you have committed to continues and grows.

Pre/Post conference calls

Four calls before and one call after.

The calls are lead by Dave Ellis and the purpose is to launch the training weeks before we meet as a group and then to continue our community for a short time after the training.
