Leadership Development

Leadership development in NYC, built around your business.

Off-the-shelf programs deliver off-the-shelf leaders. We design custom leadership development anchored in your strategy, your culture, and the behaviors your business actually needs.

Not a curriculum. A development system.

Every leadership development program is designed from scratch — beginning with diagnostic work to identify the capabilities your strategy depends on and the gaps in your current pipeline. The curriculum serves the diagnosis, not the other way around.

Programs are anchored in our ontological methodology, supported by MRG’s LEA 360® and IDI assessments, and paired with applied practice, group coaching, and — where useful — retreat intensives.

Delivery formats
01

Cohort programs

Structured curriculum for a cohort of high-potential or mid-level leaders, paired with live group coaching to embed the work.

02

Team programs

Designed around a single intact team — typically blended with team coaching and a retreat anchor.

03

Enterprise rollouts

Multi-layer development delivered with our multilingual coaches-in-network bench to maintain quality at scale.

04

Manager enablement

Skill-building for the people-leader layer — feedback, coaching skills, performance conversations, and operating rhythm.

Who we partner with

Built for HR, L&D, and the C-suite.

Engagements are commissioned by Chief People Officers, Heads of L&D, or the C-suite directly — at mid-to-large organizations that value depth over checklists.

Programs frequently combine with 1:1 executive coaching for senior participants and leadership team coaching for intact teams.

Add-on

Beyond the leadership team.

Development rarely stops at the leadership layer. As an add-on to any program — or commissioned on its own — the same methodology, coaches, and assessment tools extend to full departments, cross-functional teams, and individual contributors. Whoever in the organization needs the work, the work travels.

Questions

Common questions about leadership development.

How is this different from a leadership training program?
Training transfers content. Leadership development changes behavior. Our programs are designed from your strategy and culture — anchored in assessment, ontological coaching, and applied practice, not slide decks.
Cohort or 1:1?
Both, depending on what the business needs. Cohort formats build shared language across a leadership layer; 1:1 work goes deeper for senior participants. Most engagements blend the two.
What does the partnering organization get?
A custom program designed around named leadership capabilities, anchored by MRG's LEA 360® and IDI, supported by group and individual coaching, and reviewed against outcomes agreed up front with HR or the C-suite.
What's the time commitment for participants?
Typical programs run six to twelve months with a measured monthly cadence — designed to integrate with the realities of senior roles rather than pulling leaders out of the business for long stretches.
Do you work with non-leadership staff?
Yes. As an add-on to a leadership engagement or as standalone work, the same programs, coaches, and assessment tools extend to full departments, cross-functional teams, and individual contributors at any level.
