Experience LeaderImpact....

By -
The LeaderImpact deadline is fast approaching. Often times we are asked “What is unique about this leadership program?” LeaderImpact is a competency-based, transformational, experiential leadership program. It includes an essential professional/personal coach and an action learning lab, which keeps participants engaged and connected through the duration of the session.   

All adults can apply. NMF LeaderImpact offers the region and the world something that will revolutionize the way people view themselves as beings created and placed in the world for a purpose, endowed with the capacity for sustained change and ongoing preservation of the planet.

NMF LeaderImpact introduces a different way of being. The curriculum is rigorous and challenging. It is intended for people who want their lives transformed, who need sustained change, who want to be the best for the world, with a strong desire to have a significant impact in the world.
  
The tuition fee is all-inclusive and covers the program, lodging, all meals, participant manuals and resources including professional coaching. 

A fee of $100 is required with the completed application, which is deducted from the tuition.  Costs for this program are $1,000. Scholarships reduce the cost to $200 for persons in rural Northwest Minnesota. The fee is $2,500 for people residing outside this region.  Application fee counts towards the tuition amount.  

Your application and tasks in preparation for the first retreat will take about two hours. The first session begins at 9:30 a.m. with an overnight stay, followed by a full day with a second overnight, and concludes in the afternoon of the third day.

During the 12 weeks between sessions, participants should plan on spending approximately two hours each week for the Action Learning Lab, coaching, and on assignments. 

The second retreat begins in the evening, continues for a full day with an overnight stay and concludes in the afternoon of the third day.  

Each full day begins with breakfast at 7:00 a.m. and concludes at 9:00 p.m. There are adequate breaks and a variety of experiences, activities and processes that keep the day full and engaging. For maximum benefit, it is best to come to the LeaderImpact experience fully rested.

This means 41% of families are struggling to find safe and affordable child care for their children so they can go to work. The Center for Rural Policy and Development recently published a fact sheet that provides insight on this issue.
