Leadership Development
-
Effective Managerial Leadership
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Effective Managerial Leadership builds the skills nobody gets by being good at the job. In one day, managers learn to delegate without abandoning or hovering, set expectations specific enough to hold, give feedback that changes something, run a one on one worth having, and connect daily work to what the organization actually needs. The payoff is managers who lead on purpose rather than by instinct. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Improving Project Communications and Stakeholder Management
2 Days (16 hrs; 4 sessions)Improving Project Communications and Stakeholder Management addresses the reason most initiatives actually fail. Over two days, leaders learn to map who has influence and who only has opinions, tailor a message to what each stakeholder needs to decide, manage expectations before they harden, surface disagreement early, and hold alignment through delivery. The payoff is fewer projects derailed by people rather than problems. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $695.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
AI for Leadership and Management
2 Days (16 hrs; 4 sessions)AI for Leadership and Management is the enterprise view. Over two days, senior leaders learn to set a defensible direction rather than react to vendors, decide what to fund and what to decline, establish governance before an incident forces it, communicate priorities so the organization moves together, and evaluate a claim they lack the technical background to check. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $695.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
AI for Project Managers
2 Days (16 hrs; 4 sessions)AI for Project Managers is hands on with the tools rather than about them. Over two days, project managers work in ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Google Gemini, and Claude on the tasks that actually consume their week: drafting plans, chasing status, writing updates, preparing stakeholder communications, and analyzing risk. The payoff is hours back on administrative work you were never hired to do. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $895.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Employee Motivation and Performance Management
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Employee Motivation and Performance Management gives managers the conversation they are avoiding. In one day, they learn to set expectations that can be measured, address a performance problem while it is still small, document without turning it adversarial, and understand what actually motivates the person in front of them. The payoff is fewer surprises at review time and fewer problems that become HR's. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Process Improvement and Operational Excellence
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Process Improvement and Operational Excellence gives managers a method for the inefficiency everyone tolerates. In one day, they learn to map how work actually flows rather than how the policy says it should, find where time and rework accumulate, test a change before committing to it, and make an improvement hold after attention moves on. The payoff is measurable capacity you already own. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Microsoft Power BI for Data Driven Decision Makers
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Microsoft Power BI for Data Driven Decision Makers is for managers who use dashboards but do not build them. In one day, they learn to read a report critically, find the filter that is hiding something, tell a real trend from noise, ask the question that gets a useful answer from an analyst, and know when the dashboard cannot answer what they need. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Leading Change, Innovation, and Creativity
Half Day (4 hrs)Leading Change, Innovation, and Creativity addresses the gap between deciding and landing. In a half day, leaders learn why change fails at implementation rather than design, tell reasonable resistance from obstruction, communicate a change to people who will bear its cost, protect performance during transition, and create room for ideas without losing focus. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $395.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Project Management Fundamentals
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Project Management Fundamentals gives managers structure for work that has a deadline and no owner. In one day, they learn to define scope tight enough to defend, build a plan with real dependencies, assign accountability that means something, run a status conversation that surfaces problems, and close a project properly. The payoff is fewer projects that drift until someone notices. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Project Management Certificate
42 hoursGet started with hands-on Project Management TrainingFrom $3,005.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Tableau for Data Driven Decision Makers
2 Days (16 hrs; 4 sessions)Tableau for Data Driven Decision Makers teaches leaders to use visual analytics rather than be shown it. Over two days, they learn to interrogate a dashboard someone else built, explore and filter it themselves instead of requesting a new version, tell a design choice that clarifies from one that distorts, and reach a decision they can defend. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $695.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Talent Management and Succession Planning for Leaders
1 Day (8 hrs; two 4-hr sessions)Talent Management and Succession Planning for Leaders turns key person risk into a plan. In one day, leaders learn to identify the roles that would actually hurt to lose, tell potential from current performance, build development that produces readiness rather than goodwill, and plan continuity inside real structural constraints. The payoff is a bench that exists before you need it. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $495.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available -
Increasing Performance Through Project Risk Management
2 Days (16 hrs; 4 sessions)Increasing Performance Through Project Risk Management turns a compliance document into a working tool. Over two days, leaders learn to surface risks people are reluctant to name, assess them by exposure rather than gut feel, decide which to accept and which to act on, build responses that trigger before impact, and keep the register alive after week one. The payoff is fewer predictable surprises. Available by request only, with a three participant minimum.From $695.00/student3 person minimum, private & group rates available

Experienced leaders and department heads
Leading change, improving processes, and developing the people who will lead next.
HR directors and L&D managers

Leadership pipeline
Leadership training for managers at every stage
Most managers were promoted for being good at the work, not for leading the people who do it. DWC leadership workshops give new supervisors practical tools from day one, and give experienced leaders a structured next step: employee motivation and performance management, leading change, process improvement, and talent management with succession planning.
Organizations often combine several workshops into a leadership development series for a cohort of new managers, scheduled around their work. Government and public-sector agencies get procurement-friendly booking, invoicing, and the completion documentation their programs require.
Not sure where to start? The free Team Alignment Toolkit includes a team diagnostic, a change-communication template, and a delegation worksheet you can use before booking anything.

What is leadership development training?
Leadership development training builds the skills managers use every day: motivating people, managing performance, leading change, improving processes, and planning for succession. DWC teaches it in live, instructor-led workshops, as public classes and as private cohorts for organizations.
Is this training for new managers or experienced leaders?
Both. Leadership training for managers at DWC ranges from first-time supervisor skills to leading change, talent management, and succession planning for experienced leaders, so you can place each person at the right starting point.
Can leadership workshops be combined into a program?
Yes. Many organizations run several workshops as a leadership development series for a cohort of new managers, spaced over weeks or months and scheduled around their work.
Do you offer leadership training for government agencies?
Yes. DWC works with government and public-sector teams and provides procurement-friendly booking, invoicing, purchase order documentation, and certificates of completion for training records.
Can workshops be customized for our organization?
Yes. Private sessions are built around your actual work before delivery, so managers practice on the situations, processes, and teams they lead every day. Customization is included in team pricing.
Can individual managers take a class?
Yes. When a class shows a scheduled date, anyone can register. If no date is listed, use Register Interest and we will contact you when one is set. Employer professional development funds can cover tuition.
How long are the workshops?
Most leadership workshops run a half day (4 hours) to two days (16 hours), usually split into short live sessions so managers can train without stepping away from their teams for a full day.
Do you offer leadership development training nationwide?
Yes. Workshops run live online for teams nationwide, and on-site, in-person delivery is available by request.
