The Solutions and Specialized Innovations team utilizes a leadership training curriculum designed and developed by CEO Ron Morrison.  The curriculum, recognized as one of the best in the country, is extremely dynamic, updated constantly with new advances in the field in order to be as relevant as possible to today’s emerging young leader.

Every leadership experience initiated by SASI uses kinesthetic, auditory and visual learning elements to guide participants through deliberate and purpose-filled exercises resulting in personal and organizational growth.  Through these experiential processes, mental and physical exercises, and emotionally based activities, participants increase their personal leadership capacities.  Students grow in their understanding of self and discover more about the leader within. 

During our leadership workshops, participants contribute equally in order to take full advantage of the collective wisdom and talent within the group.  Processes are carefully selected and presented so that personal contribution without regard to position, rank, status or personality type can easily take place.  Our workshops are purposefully sequenced to build upon one another with participants generally being unaware of the culminating effect until they have reached solutions or conclusions.

We believe the answers are in the room, and we insure that students are actively involved in creating plans for improvement and solutions to problems, often before they become consciously aware of their own significant contributions.  Among many positive outcomes of our processes is students’ sense of successful personal development and empowerment gained by knowing that their individual contributions are highly valued parts of the finished product.

Our experiences for leaders

  • Students develop a variety of leadership strategies as well as a personal understanding of what it means to lead.
  • Assimilate the common qualities of effective leaders into workable leadership practices for student leaders.
  • Increase participants’ emotional intelligence by exploring the impact of emotions on leadership and on the decision-making process.

Our experiences for organizations and teams

  • Strengthen team members’ understanding of teamwork techniques through a variety of physical, mental and emotional exercises.
  • Help students develop real-life problem solving skills while holding to a leader’s solution-centered mindset.
  • Facilitate the construction of student strategies for communication and for breaking down the barriers that impede success.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions you may have about our leadership curriculum.  We look forward to sharing it with your student leaders.
