Executive-level coaching support for Next Generation Leaders

The transition from individual contributor to Leading People is extremely challenging. How often do you promote a great 'engineer' or 'accountant' or X only to wonder 'why they can't lead'?


Emerging leaders typically don't know what it  means-or what it takes-to lead people and frankly, most managers are not good at spotting high potential talent, much less providing meaningful leadership development.


The Aspiring Leader®  Series  addresses the unique challenges of preparing high potentials for their first  Leading People role and empowers them to take ownership for their own growth and development. It's far more empowering, confidence-building, and customized to each unique Aspiring Leader than typical 'training' and 'leadership development programs' targeting emerging leaders.


Whether you're responsible for developing next generation leaders or you are an emerging leader, this coaching-style program is for you.

What do participants say?

To date, emerging leaders representing 27 organizations and 4 countries completed the program. Program features, pricing, and design was influenced by the feedback from these Aspiring Leaders. Here's just a few of their comments:

  • This is so much more than training! I realized that each of us had a similar experience and built upon the same foundation, but we each left with an experience, learning, and development plan unique to us--just like working with a coach! 
  • This program feels more like a holistic whole-self development program that applies very clearly to leadership.
  • I felt more and more empowered after each session, and confident in my ability to learn to lead ... especially in the aspects of leadership I might struggle with in my first Leading People role.
  • I have tools to use right away in my current role, and a Growth Plan designed specifically around my natural strengths and challenges--specifically for my first Leading People role.
  • I really appreciate Tom's advice on how to leverage what I'm learning in a job interview. This program help me stand out from other applications.

Built for one-or dozens. Customizable to your unique organization.

The leadership and leadership development principles behind the program and the 'coaching style' approach ensures the Aspiring Leader® Series works in any industry, culture, organization, and discipline. If you have 15 or more emerging leaders to develop, it can also be customized to your organization's values, competencies, training programs, etc.


Through self-paced videos, cases, high-impact assessments, expert models, practical application throughout the program, and weekly LIVE sessions with Tom, emerging leaders will not only look like they know what they're doing to prepare and start Leading People, but they will know precisely what they're doing and why.

Expertly Crafted by Tom Giberson, PhD

Tom crafted the Aspiring Leader® Series based upon:

  • 25 years of coaching, consulting, and advising  upper management through the CEO levels
  • Working 1/1 with over 3000 leaders
  • Award-winning leadership researcher and author
  • 20 years as a leadership professor

Key Features

  • Feedback intensive: Emerging leaders complete three high-impact leadership assessments that connect their leader personality and motives to the unique Leader Impact they will have on others.
  • Encourages self-reflection: Through feedback & journaling, emerging leaders learn NOT to point fingers.  You will learn to take responsibility for yourself,  reflect on the impact you have on others, the choices that you make, and plan for how you can foster your own leadership development.
  • Growth-oriented: Emerging leaders leave with a clear leadership growth  plan specifically related to their strengths and growth needs in a leadership role.
  • Proactive: Emerging leaders will know exactly what they need to develop--and why--in order to successfully Lead People. 
  • Accountability-based: Emerging leader participants understand that their leadership growth and development is THEIR responsibility; the organization and their manager are supports.
  • Strategic: Emerging leader participants leave with a 90 Day Leader Onboarding Plan that outlines their first day, day 30, day 60, and day 90 once in a leadership role.
  • Peer Support: A dedicated Aspiring Leader® MS Teams page to collaborate with peers & Tom Giberson, your coach. Corporate clients can also opt for their own Teams page with Tom.
  • Weekly coaching support: Weekly scheduled LIVE Masterclass video sessions. Deep dive into leadership and leadership development topics, ask questions, hear & share examples, get advice, & discuss leadership growth with Tom Giberson. Corporate clients can also opt to sponsor their own LIVE sessions.
  • Career spanning: Getting off the a strong start is just the beginning. The Aspiring Leader's® mental models, tools, and approach to leadership will help guide your leadership and growth for your entire leadership career!
