Leadership & Growth Courses for Higher Ed

We've partnered with NERCOMP and the Oberlin Group of Libraries to present LEAP to leaders in Higher Ed IT and libraries, in an exciting, empowering hybrid course that encouraged participants to approach leadership as a set of contextual behaviors that empower them and the people around them.
A 6 Week Intensive Coaching and Learning Session for Higher Ed Professionals.
ACCORDING TO LEAP FORWARD ALUMNI:

I feared that this would be a soft sales pitch for B. Cog’s leadership program. I was surprised at the genuine connection and empathy I found here. —Joe M

I don’t know how you did it, but in that first session the facilitators made me feel safe. I was able to share my situation with people who were willing to listen and were going through the same thing. —Anna L

LEAP FORWARD helped me get out of the overthinking stage of being laid off. It made me think I could gain some distance and that moving forward is not impossible. —Heather H

B. COGNITION
Most of the time, people evaluate situations in a quick, analytical way. Psychologist Abraham Maslow studied people who seemed sophisticated and advanced in their humanity.
He believed these people had a way of knowing things in a different way, which he called B-Cognition, which encompasses empathy, and radiates love, joy, contentedness, and acceptance.
