Program Overview
Our New and Emerging Leaders Program is built on a foundation of real-world success and experience in fostering leadership qualities across diverse industries and organizational sizes. This tailored program is structured into three progressive tiers—Foundational, Intermediate, and Advanced—thoughtfully designed to offer a comprehensive learning journey. Each tier builds upon the previous, enabling leaders to develop from mastering fundamental skills to addressing complex leadership challenges. The Foundational Tier focuses on cultivating core leadership competencies, equipping new leaders with critical interpersonal and self-management skills. The Intermediate Tier builds on foundational skills and introduces strategic abilities necessary for effective team development and enhanced communication. The Advanced Tier concentrates on high-level strategic thinking and leadership resilience, preparing leaders for senior management roles. It focuses on empowering leaders to drive organizational change and navigate complex business landscapes effectively. This leadership development program serves as a bridge to leadership excellence, guiding new and emerging leaders through a transformational journey that not only enhances their personal capabilities but also aligns with the strategic goals of the organization. The program is crafted to elevate individual leaders and fortify the leadership framework of the organization, ensuring sustained success and adaptability in a rapidly evolving business environment.
Our leadership development program offers two tracks: one for new and emerging leaders and another for mid-level leaders, each structured in three progressive tiers. As participants move through these tiers, they systematically build upon the essential skills needed to become effective leaders with each track tailored to address the unique challenges and opportunities at their respective levels of leadership.

“I have been in law enforcement for over 25 years, 15+ years with Union Pacific. I have attended literally HUNDREDS of hours of cultural diversity, cultural awareness, and racial profiling courses both through law enforcement and railroad resources.Themum was absolutely the best presenter/instructor I have ever encountered. She tackled a sensitive and potentially abrasive topic with grace, dignity, and professionalism. There were times in the day that people would question the course material or an opinion and she was able to relate to each and every one while bringing the discussion back on topic in a meaningful way. I would highly recommend utilizing Themum or someone who operates like her as much as possible for D&I training.”
