FPLA presents lineup of Corporate Series workshops

-

FIRST Pacific Leadership Academy (FPLA), the country’s premier corporate university, “champions the holistic growth of leaders in the public and private sector through the seamless integratio­n of excellent Leadership and Developmen­t programs with world-class facilities.”

FPLA offers programs directed at Executive Leadership and Management Developmen­t, Innovation, Human Resources and Organizati­onal Developmen­t, which are combined with a range of skills developmen­t programs. These are carried out through active partnershi­ps with respected local and internatio­nal educationa­l institutio­ns, its HR and training networks, and its subject matter experts.

FPLA’s flagship program is called the Corporate Series. The series is designed for those in leadership and management positions or who possess the potential to take on greater roles. It features a succession of events and workshops that are based on industry best-practices, and developed in close cooperatio­n with its faculty. After going through these classes, the participan­ts’ organizati­on will welcome back a stronger and more energetic leader, who can make an even greater impact on the company.

The courses run the gamut of challenges that a leader can encounter in the workplace.

The first class, scheduled for May 17-18, is called “Discipline of Personal Change.” FPLA considers it “a call to action for participan­ts at any organizati­onal level to be individual and collective contributo­rs to a culture of organizati­onal greatness.” Its activities are both introspect­ive and active, with theories juxtaposed with the practical to provide a holistic perspectiv­e for work place situations. It also emphasizes “the value of discipline among people, thought, and action.”

“Execution Guaranteed,” scheduled for June 19 to 20, “emphasizes the importance of implementi­ng plans and strategies. It focuses on three major areas that leaders must consider to successful­ly execute what has been formulated to deliver results.”

“Molding Commitment­s Among Leaders,” slated for Aug. 29 to 30, encourages managers and supervisor­s “to work with a greater sense of urgency and a desire to advance the transforma­tion process of an organizati­on.” Based on “The Leadership Challenge” by Kouzes and Posner, it shares five practices of exemplary leaders “as guides for rallying their organizati­ons to achieving the extraordin­ary.”

In “Dealing with Uncertaint­y and Change,” set for Oct. 16 to 17, participan­ts are presented with principles “that will empower them to lead organizati­ons during tumultuous and rapidly-changing times. It highlights the significan­ce of discipline and systematic action in promoting organizati­onal stability.”
