DEVELOPING LEADERS AT EVERY LEVEL
​Learn from History's Greatest Leaders

SINCE 1984
Tigrett Leadership Academy has helped successfully develop over 8,000 leaders at every level for organizations like the Defense Intelligence Agency, General Mills, the Federal Judicial Center and Omega Protein to name a few.
​
WHAT TO EXPECT
Our workshops begin with case studies that focus on history's greatest leaders like Abraham Lincoln, Dwight Eisenhower and Winston Churchill. Your group will engage in round-table discussions, analyze workplace challenges, and complete self-awareness exercises under the guidance of an expert who has over 30 years of experience in leadership development.

We use movie clips to help deliver the message, but nothing is more awe inspiring than our excursions to the Gettysburg Battlefield or Dwight Eisenhower's farm and standing in the same spot where these great leaders made critical decisions that affected our world's history.

WHY USE HISTORY?
During Winston Churchill's speech to the House of Commons in 1948, he said “Those who fail to learn from history are condemned to repeat it." Those words encompass what we believe rings true today—the challenges faced decades ago are still relevant to business professionals today. From their lessons, you will discover real-world applications to solve today's real-world issues. ​And...you might learn a little history too!

"There are so many parallels between what we can learn on the battlefield or in the classroom. And it makes it very easy to apply those lessons to what we do in business."
