What is an example of instructor led training?
An example of instructor-led training is a live leadership workshop where a facilitator guides participants through discussions, role plays, case studies, group exercises, and real-time feedback. Ascent’s instructor-led formats include in-person classroom training and live Zoom micro learnings, both designed to mirror real workplace challenges and help participants apply new skills immediately.

These workshops are ideal for new managers, experienced leaders, team leads, sales leaders, customer-facing managers, and corporate professionals responsible for influencing others. They are also valuable for organizations that want stronger communication, collaboration, decision-making, strategic thinking, coaching ability, and team alignment across departments or leadership levels.
What topics are covered in the leadership training program?
Ascent’s leadership training can cover emotional intelligence, communication, coaching, decision-making, strategic thinking, collaboration, change management, inclusive leadership, team performance, and self-awareness tools such as DISC or EQ assessments. Workshops are customized, so content is aligned with the organization’s goals, learner roles, industry context, and desired performance outcomes.
