Registration is open to insular government professionals.

This course is limited to public sector professionals working for the U.S. Virgin Islands Office of Management and Budget.

Course Description

In the book, In Search of Excellence, co-author Tom Peters wisely states that “Leaders don’t create more followers, they create more leaders.” Peters further notes that “Leaders who create followers reduce the capacity of the organization to adjust. Leaders who create more leaders increase the capacity of the organization to change and to grow.”

Aligned with Peters’ philosophy, leadership expert and founder of Leadership Works, Glenn Furuya, has dedicated 40 years to helping organizations survive and thrive by embracing this “people paradox” - where leaders become followers and followers become leaders.

While sometimes easier said than done, Glenn’s course on Growing Peak Performers provides leaders with a straight-forward blueprint for developing competent and committed team members that can provide long-term sustainability and growth.
