"It was a honor to be part of your incredible program (Innovative Leadership Facilitator Program). The experiences, information, perspectives, and relationships that you and the group shared have made me a better leader and person. The impact of this program has improved and brought depth to the way I work with people and think about my life and work. "
Mike Davis
President, Junior Acheivement
"The program has rich and meaningful material, valuable network opportunities, and great instructors that push you to truly know yourself."
Aspiring CIO
IT Leader Program
"I think I learned the importance of what I think of as “deliberate growth”, meaning that if you want to grow in your role, in your experience, in your skills, you have to do it deliberately…writing and refining a personal vision, taking the time to network with peers at other companies, learning from others and “sharpening the saw” outside of the office. Because of this experience, I really do feel I have gained valuable tools that I will continue to put into practice for years to come. Thank you!"
AVP Architecture & IT Strategy
IT Leader Program
"Going into the class my expectations were more on the assumption of a “checklist” on how to become a CIO leader, but what I got instead was a new understanding on myself. I really learned that you have to look inward to move where you want to go. There is no blueprint or silver bullet. I also learned that expanding your network and your center of influence is more important than striving for a “title”. Work a becoming the best leader you can be and the “title” will follow."
Technology Manager
IT Leaders Program
"The course was invaluable for me and was helpful in several ways, but most importantly it helped me see some of my blind spots. Having been an IT leader for over 20 years it becomes easy to think “I’ve been through it all” and that I know how to handle every situation. Several of the sessions really helped me course correct that thinking. "
AVP Chief Technology Manager
IT Leaders Program
"Understanding who I am, what I like and where I want to go is crucial. Leadership is the complete picture not just at work but what you are impacting in the community. The complete picture needs to be established and communicated. This part of leadership is very easily overlooked but is necessary to let others know who you are and what you are looking to accomplish. Again, “looking to accomplish” is more along the lines of your impact to the community and to humanity more than making this deadline. I think this foundation for me was an excellent journey and one worth looking at again and again. "
Jim Perry, CAS, Manager Enterprise Data Management
IT Leaders Program
"I am truly honored to be a part of the inaugural alumni group and consider this experience to be a pivotal one in my career, and I will heartily endorse it to others that are looking to advance their own careers, and create meaningful connections to our vibrant Columbus, Ohio IT community."
AVP Architecture & IT Strategy
IT Leaders
"As an attendee of this program, I recommend it to all IT Leaders as an educational opportunity worth experiencing. The insight of yourself, seeing the reflection in the mirror, the identification of areas of improvement that can bring you to the next vertical level in your career and personal life are invaluable."
George Brown, Manager, IT Operations and Infrastructure
IT Leaders
""I am lucky to be taking this transformational journey. The reflection, interaction with peers and leaders is invaluable not only to those who aspire to be in leadership but to any IT professional who wants to remain relevant in today’s rapidly changing environment.""

"A lot of leadership training is snake oil and at best focuses on tactics. The Innovative Leadership Institute team focus on helping experienced leaders understand their behavior and sustain long term meaningful change. "
Advanced Leadership Development Program
Warner Moore, Founder and CEO of Gamma Force
"As a leader, giving yourself time to think, (about your traits, how you developed into the leader you've become, your place in the world and what you want to be) is so valuable. That's what this class gave me. The chance to learn about new ideas and the head space to think about their impact. I was able to see my work and those I interact with in an objective way. I was also able to learn about myself and others through our discussions. What a gift!"
Advanced Leadership Development Program
Director Application Development
"The Advanced Leadership Development Program has opened my eyes in my ability to understand leadership from the perspective of those around me. I am learning to communicate and at the same time reflect on the impact I have on those I speak to. Trying to better understanding the way I interact with others has been an important in helping me improve my interpersonal skills at work and has helped me develop better relationships with my team. "

"The training was absolutely superb, and I genuinely enjoyed every moment of it. The content was extremely informative and incredibly useful. Your years of experience, your depth of understanding the business culture, and ability to present the subject in such an interesting way during a difficult situation made huge impact with me. I have attended several leadership trainings before, but I can't recall any of them having such a strong impact. You have done an outstanding job and I appreciate your efforts. Your program has benefited me both personally and professionally. Keep Hammering and Getting After It. "
