Executive Accelerator

How your high potential (HIPO) leaders become tomorrow’s executives

Your company’s middle managers and emerging influencers are asking, “What’s next in my business leadership development?”

Emergent Exec’s Executive Accelerator Program prepares your up-and-coming executive leaders to think and execute like an experienced general manager. This six-month executive training program empowers 6-20 of your future leaders through a hybrid learning approach of MBA-style classroom experiences and customized, one-on-one leadership coaching.

What to Expect of our Executive Accelerator Program

Executive Education Classes

Members of your company’s cohort gather monthly for a two-hour session, either in-person or via video conference, to be trained in a highly-interactive learning environment by university-level professors and subject matters on the core topics of senior-level management.

Readings & Learning Experiences

Emergent Execs curates a series of best-in-class readings, case studies, online gaming simulations, and psychometric testing to reinforce what your participants are learning in the classroom. More importantly, we provide practical tools for
them to immediately implement in their leadership areas. We know their time is precious, so we limit their homework to 3-4 hours per month.

Executive Coaching

Twice per month, students will engage in a 60-minute coaching session with a boardroom-seasoned executive coach. The coach will serve as a confidential sounding board and advisor as your participants create a professional development plan to shore up leadership gaps and increase their influence in your organization.

Benchmarking & Reporting

Your company will be provided with a mid-program and final assessment of your emerging leaders’ executive leadership potential and progress on learning goals, as well as recommendations for future development.

Our curriculum specialists work with your HR leaders or C-level executives to design a program from our library of training modules that matches the topics, language and leadership competencies of your
company.

 “The Accelerator program helped me tremendously in sharpening my management skills. I loved the classroom experience and getting the opportunity to hear from other leaders in the tech space. Meeting with my coach helped me bring the learnings from the classroom back to work and apply them to my role.”

– Olga K, Indeed

“The individualized coaching sessions were a 1,2 punch that complemented the class time so well! My coach, Karen Markham, was poignant, professional, and encouraging throughout the entire Accelerator process. Not only did she provide me with managerial strategies I was able to implement immediately, she also devoted time to discussing my personal and professional goals. Karen never lost sight of the fact that a person’s identity is not limited to their business card.”

– Lara K, Brainiac

 “I attended the Accelerator program to learn more about how to think strategically about rapidly growing a global team. Since attending, I have increased the size of my team from 20 people to over 75. The Socratic method used in the classroom, in conjunction with the individualized coaching sessions, helped me design a detailed, personalized action plan. I enjoyed the opportunities to engage with my peers in the classroom and establish relationships that will last
well beyond the program.”

“We led an extensive process to identify the right coaching organization for our fast growth organization. Emergent Execs proved to be the right choice – they had a proven curriculum but were willing to customize and adapt the classroom conversation to address specific challenges we were facing at that point in time. Additionally their expertise in facilitating conversations with all levels made an impact on the business itself and how talent worked together to meet organizational goals and objectives.”

– Lauren P,  CLS Partners

“Simply put, the Accelerator program was both humbling and encouraging. I was humbled by the caliber of my cohort (and that I had obvious skill gaps to fill), then encouraged by the practical tools Ted walked us through in class. Well worth the investment!”

– Kevin L, Tengointernet 

“The curriculum has something for everyone, and the is in an easily digested format that reinforces all the key learning points with books, case studies, and in-class experiences that help to solidify the learning process and drive home the message of the month.”
