Overview

The Center for Leadership at Endicott College (CFL) is the management and professional development institute of the Van Loan School of Graduate and Professional Studies. Center for Leadership programs include seminars, special lectures and events, workshops, consulting assignments, and non-credit certificate programs. The CFL brings practitioners and faculty members to work with manufacturing and service companies, community-based organizations, and municipalities to improve organizational, operational, and individual effectiveness. Programs are delivered at client sites, via the Internet, and on the Endicott College campus' in both Beverly and Gloucester, Massachusetts.

Custom Developed Programs

The philosophy of the Center for Leadership is to custom develop programs that meet the needs of our client organizations. Representatives from the Center for Leadership spend a significant amount of time working with company management and collecting information prior to creating an instructional plan. Then, equipped with an understanding of the relevant business issues, the CFL custom-develops a program that is most responsive to the organization's needs. This process maximizes the likelihood for a productive experience.

Interactive Instruction

The programs delivered by the Center for Leadership are not highly theoretical or totally academic in nature. Instead, these programs employ a practical and interactive model of instruction. Through role-plays, illustrative examples, and vigorous group discussions, the opportunity for lasting change is greatest. Our instructors are experienced in encouraging and facilitating structured group participation.

Expert Faculty

Center for Leadership instructors and seminar leaders are experienced practitioners and subject matter experts who work as coaches and facilitators to help individuals and organizations work towards significant improvement. Faculty members of Endicott College also participate in program development and delivery.
