Executive Leadership Seminar (ELS-21D) GO/SES


The Enterprise Leadership Seminar provides a collaborative and powerfully engaging opportunity for participants to increase their effectiveness by gaining an understanding of business acumen within the context of current Air Force issues.  The program heightens awareness and deepens insights related to the Air Force “business” enterprise.  Participants discuss current Air Force challenges and expand their Air Force senior leader network.  Participants also examine topics such as: strategic planning and execution, strategic innovation, individual and group decision making, negotiation and collaboration, leading change, motivating others for high performance, financial and resource management, and ethics.  The program challenges participants to test their assumptions and discover new possibilities through the use of data, sound business approaches, and best practices.
