Registration now open for Advanced Leadership Program, new Phoenix Cohort added

SEATTLE, WA (February 16, 2023) — Registration is now open for the 2023 Advanced Leadership Program, the transformational leadership course that equips the next generation of leaders with the tools, skills, and resources needed to increase their strategic impact.

This intensive, hybrid program is offered through a partnership between GoWest Credit Union Association and DDJ Myers. Previously known as the Emerging Leaders Program, the course is now in its 11th year and is designed for experienced leaders in mid-level manager, leader, and director roles as well as those with previous leadership development training.
Due to unprecedented demand for in-person programming, Advanced Leadership is expanding this year with a second cohort in Phoenix in addition to Seattle/Portland. Each cohort includes three in-person group learning sessions, 3 virtual group learning sessions, monthly calls, one-on-one executive coaching and more. Program participants will graduate with sustainable leadership practices, new thinking, and a clear understanding of their unique development path moving forward, as well as a network of industry peers.
“We’re thrilled to be entering our 11th year and expanding the program to meet growing credit union needs,” says Peter Myers, Senior Vice President, DDJ Myers, An ALM First Company. “Not only do participants share the immediate positive impacts this course has on their professional lives, but we’re also seeing the long-term results firsthand with several past attendees becoming CEOs and many alumni now serving in other c-suite roles throughout the industry.”
Early tuition is available for those who register before March 1, 2023 and special pricing is available for credit unions who send multiple attendees.
Cohorts tend to fill up quickly, so credit union professionals interested in attending are encouraged to register as soon as possible by visiting gowestassociation.org/event/advanced-leadership-program/.
