What is included in leadership and team development training?
Leadership and team development training can include interactive workshops, real-world simulations, assessments such as DISC or EQ tools, group exercises, coaching, action planning, and reinforcement. Ascent Performance Trainings customizes the experience around your managers, team goals, industry, and desired outcomes so participants build practical communication, decision-making, emotional intelligence, and collaboration skills.
Who should attend the leadership training program?
The training is designed for emerging leaders, frontline managers, experienced supervisors, sales leaders, department heads, and high-potential employees preparing for greater responsibility. It is also valuable for teams experiencing growth, change, communication challenges, or performance gaps. Programs can be tailored for Baltimore-based organizations, distributed teams, or broader corporate groups.
How long does the leadership training take?
Program length depends on the selected format. The Ascent Leadership Academy is a 10-week program, while micro-learning sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes online. In-person workshops and customized leadership training can be structured around your schedule, and post-training reinforcement may continue for eight weeks through videos, emails, and coaching.
Can the training be customized for our company?
Yes. Ascent Performance Trainings builds fully tailored programs based on your team’s roles, leadership challenges, industry, and performance objectives. Content can include communication, coaching, strategic thinking, decision-making, emotional intelligence, change management, inclusive leadership, and team collaboration. Delivery can combine in-person workshops, virtual sessions, one-on-one coaching, and self-paced learning.
Do you offer virtual leadership training for remote teams?
Yes. Ascent offers live instructor-led Zoom micro-learnings, recorded video sessions, self-paced options, virtual coaching, and a 24/7 online learning platform. The platform supports mobile learning, adaptive paths, AI-powered content recommendations, and data-driven insights, making it practical for remote, hybrid, and busy professional teams to continue developing consistently.
What makes Ascent’s post-training reinforcement valuable?
Many training programs lose impact when participants return to daily work. Ascent addresses that with eight weeks of reinforcement, including weekly emails, AI videos, practical reminders, and monthly one-on-one coaching. This structure helps leaders apply new concepts, reflect on challenges, receive feedback, and turn classroom learning into lasting workplace behavior.
Will participants receive a certificate?
Participants may receive the Proprietary Ascent Performance Training Certificate upon completion, depending on the program structure selected. The certificate supports professional development by documenting participation in Ascent’s performance-based learning methodology. It is especially useful for organizations that want a formal completion marker tied to leadership skill development and ongoing growth.
How do we choose the right training format?
The right format depends on your goals, audience size, schedule, and preferred learning style. In-person classroom training is ideal for immersive practice, while online learning supports flexibility and distributed teams. Leadership Academy programs provide deeper transformation, and micro-learnings work well for focused skill-building. Ascent can help align the format to your outcomes.
