Leadership Development Institute

“Recent studies show that a person’s business success is based more on their EQ than their IQ.”

AIM Utah offers two leadership development programs. 

LDI - Leadership Development Program... 

The first, called LDI was developed and made available starting in 2006.  The objectives of this program is to expose Utah professionals to 21st Century Leadership concepts over a 4-month period.  This program is taught by 7 experienced and successful Utah Executives and the focus has evolved to Influencing training, ourselves and others over a 3-day period.

The AIM Leadership Development Institute (LDI): Defining and Implementing Your Personal Journey to Influential Leadership

Leaders today deal with a myriad of “opportunities” ranging from a rapid pace of change, employee engagement, uncertainty, societal, political and economic disruption, increased competition, the evolving role of technology and AI in our lives and organizations, et cetera. In this environment, leadership that might have worked in the past will not work at all.

This environment requires leaders who can define a vision / path forward, build confidence in persons and teams, elevate the skills and capabilities of themselves and others and sort through the chaff to determine what matters most. Stated differently, this environment requires leaders who other choose to follow; leaders who demonstrate authority through influence, not position.

AIM LDI trains leaders to be influential. The AIM LDI content and practice covers:

• Defining who I am and what is the difference I want to make
• Building my personal leadership brand
• How to link my behaviors to my intentions and being intentional in my leadership
• What are the characteristics of influential leaders and who can I develop these skills?
• No matter where I start, how do I expand both my influential leadership skills and my influence – in any situation?
• What are the natural feedback loops and sources I need in order to improve my influential leadership skills? 
• What is my plan to become an influential leader and how do I know I am making progress? 

AIM LDI combines proven content taught by proven, world-class instructors with practice (both inside and outside of the training sessions) to ensure that attendees not only learn but use the skills and can measure their progress.

AIM LDI is taught in three, seven-hour sessions (one session a month). Lunch is included as is interaction with other attendees and the instructors.

AIM LDI is designed to teach anyone how to be a leader that “others choose to follow” and is the perfect content for a changing world.
