Manager Catalyst
When you give your people managers the right tools, your culture will thrive
Regardless of how long they’ve been managing, most leaders have never been taught the foundational skills of leading teams and driving performance. The Emergent Execs Manager Catalyst Program is a highly-interactive, classroom-based course that delivers the frameworks and tools that bring confidence and competence to your first-time and mid-level managers.
Strengths of our Manager Catalyst Program:
Flexible
Sessions are 75 minutes at a time, day, and pace that is convenient for your schedule. Stack them up in day-long seminars or spread them out over months. We offer in-person training at your company’s offices or via video conference.
Customized
From our library of management lessons, we work with you to choose the topics you want to emphasize; in a way that fits with your policies, goals, and personality.
Professional
All of our facilitators have taught at a university level or are regarded as subject matter experts in the industry.
Practical
Participants leave every session with tools they will implement immediately.
Accountable
We track participation in classroom discussion and homework and provide regular progress updates to their direct supervisor.
Not Boring!
We don’t lecture. We don’t theorize. We engage your managers in relevant conversations about how to lead in your company.
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
“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.”
