Townsend Leadership Program, Virtual

A comprehensive leadership development program built to help leaders who are deeply invested in their personal and professional growth realize excellence.

STOP TREATING SYMPTOMS

Most leaders are under-supported and struggle to access their full potential, leaving them feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and suffering from burnout. The Townsend Leadership Program equips you with the support and skills needed to impact your leadership, your organization, your vision, your relationships, and your life.

These are areas that we believe should not be left up to chance, and which are all supported by Relational Nutrients, a foundation that supports your life and that acts as the backbone of our program.

      How TLP-V Works

      Leadership Models for People and Businesses

      As a leader, it’s important to have a complete set of skills to accelerate your personal, professional, and organizational performance. Our Townsend Leadership Program features teams around the country that meet on a monthly basis to support each other in growth and success, both professionally and personally.  

      first steps: Joining a tlp group

      The first steps to joining the Townsend Leadership Program including finding a Director in your area and initiating contact to request an interview. TLP is a year long and different Directors begin their program year in different seasons. Once you’ve interviewed with a Director in your area and are invited into their program, you’ll be given detailed information on meeting days, times, locations, and other program specifics from your Director. Visit the Directors page to browse our TLP Partners and find one in your area. 

      Program Pillars

      At the foundation of the holistic program, and throughout every didactic, lies the integration of Dr. Townsend’s Relational Nutrients as an essential resource. We all have the need to receive these nutrients, and ensuring this happens is directly connected with your ability to develop healthy, vibrant, life giving relationships. Relational Nutrients are both the operating system for the Townsend Leadership Program, and for you to achieve your highest potential in relationships, leadership and life.

      Virtual Group Information (TLP-V)

      Townsend Leadership Program is now also being offered in a virtual format to accommodate our members’ needs.

      The learning material and content from the Townsend Leadership Program has been formatted specifically for virtual members, maintaining the same depth of benefits as the original TLP program.

      Virtual TLP members can enjoy the following benefits:

      • Virtual groups meet without the potential exposure risk that can occur during traveling and in-person meetings (however, all TLP Groups choosing to meet in person exercise strict social distancing and safety protocols).
      • Without the need to travel to an in-person meeting, monthly learning days are conducted in a half-day format rather than a full day, resulting in less time away from the office.

      Learning Strategies to Expect

      With our  Competence + Character Leadership model, you’ll learn how to focus on strategy and goals while cultivating emotional intelligence to help grow a successful business. The Leader’s Path to Growth is a framework that highlights how the fruit of your success in your personal and professional life stems from roots of grace, truth, and time. With these models, you gain benefits of integrated leadership growth while experiencing personal support from your TLP team.
