Today our class visited the Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro, North Carolina. The Center for Creative Leadership or the CCL is a non-profit organization. Also the CCL contains several different programs that help create and coach leadership skills to whom ever wants to learn more about becoming a more effective leader. The CCL contains many other different facilities in other countries like Singapore, China, Ethiopia, Brussels, Belgium, Russia, and more. The facility in Greensboro is the head quarters of the worldwide provider of leadership development.
The Center for Creative Leadership’s mission is to help individuals and organizations across the globe unlock their leadership potential. One of the most important statements our guide, Deborah Friedman, said was that you don’t need to be a genius to be a leader. Also intelligence is very important but without any leadership skills, intelligence doesn’t mean any thing when trying to become a leader. The CCL’s customers and clients mostly include high level businessmen and women. About 20,000 individuals from 3,000 organizations seek the Center for Creative Leadership’s help in enhancing their organization’s leaders. The customers of the Center of Creative Leadership value the meaningful programs and experiences that the CCL provides to help enhance their leadership skills. Each organization seeks the CCL to provide leadership development for a positive effect in their organization. The results that the Center for Creative Leadership has earned the past 40 years is extraordinary. Unlocking leadership potential for clients has helped accelerate strategies and business results for clients across the world. Their clients have ranked the CCL among the top ten of executive education in the world.
The Center for Creative Leadership’s plan is to make sure to always have cutting edge material to help instill better leadership skills in organizations and individuals across the globe. Even though they have had so much success with their past and current models for leadership development our guide mentioned that they are always embracing change to improve their own equipment for leadership development. Conclusively, leadership as an important facet of every organization will never change but the way the center helps develop leadership skills in organizations or individuals will change to better suit every client. Overall, the visit and the tour at the Center for Creative Leadership was extremely interesting and was a very good opportunity for all of us to have. Also I hope that the organization I work for in the future permits us to enroll in programs at the Center for Creative Leadership.
