Experience in Leadership Development Programs

Integral Development and Dr Ron Cacioppe have over 15 years experience in conducting leadership development programs. A few examples are summarised below:

The program included sessions on strategic leadership, managing poor performance, coaching skills for managers, building high performance teams and managing change. Each MDA manager received feedback on an Integral 360° Leadership and Management Profile designed specifically for MDA and received ongoing coaching.

This involves a 5-day program for middle-level managers and includes strategic management, managing change, building effective teams, financial management and managing performance.

A range of expert ID presenters and facilitators are involved in this program. The program also includes the Integral 360° Leadership and Management Profile and coaching for participants. Dr. Cacioppe has been the coordinator and principle presenter on the Monadelphous senior executive and middle level management programs for over 5 years involving over 150 managers.

Amana Living: Integral Development conducted in 2007 a 5-month program for the senior and middle level managers for this community and aged care organisation.

The program included sessions on effective leadership, authentic leadership, leadership coaching, performance management, building high performance teams and managing and communicating change.

Churches of Christ Homes: Integral Development provided a program for the senior executive of this aged care organisation. This involved managing strategic change, feedback of the results of the Integral 360° Leadership and Management Profile and building an effective senior management team. This program also helped the executive team look at their communication and the strategic challenges facing the organisation.
