We Believe Everyone Can Lead’: Why NeuroFlow Launched An Integrated Leadership Development Program
The healthtech company’s head of people shares how features like small cohorts, Outward Bound excursions and “accountability buddies” make the retention-minded program effective.
As world-changing innovations bubble up from shared workspaces, home offices and huddle rooms around the globe, how can we ensure that employees can see their leadership potential in a modern workplace?
A recent study by the Society for Human Resources Management shows that eight in 10 human resources managers cite employee training as a benefit to both attracting and retaining employees. It also shows that 84% of employees want their company to provide training on soft skills, and 54% noted leadership training as the top skill they wish to learn.
At NeuroFlow, a technology company helping to bridge the gap between mental and physical health care, we believe everyone can lead. By cultivating skills that support teamwork and a strategic mindset throughout the company, we are better equipped to pursue our goals with employees who feel valued and prepared to drive impact in the complex and challenging mental health space. That’s why we recently launched a Leadership Development Program.
Originally based on the West Point Leader Development System that our CEO and cofounder Chris Molaro was introduced to during his time at the United States Military Academy, our program fuses leadership principles, NeuroFlow’s values, and most notably, employee feedback to create a holistic experience that impacts participants as both people and professionals.
“Our program content is designed to help employees develop their own leadership style in a way that aligns with our mission and how we support one another,” program alum and NeuroFlow’s head of recruiting, Megan Lipset, told me.
