Transformational Leader
Who are you capable of being?
You want to forge ahead and make things happen, but transformational leaders know that pausing, reflecting, and sense-making are just as important as acting.
IMD’s Transformational Leader is a personalized transformation journey that teaches you how to unlock the full potential of your leadership in four stages: mindful, resilient, adaptive, and evolving. The program takes place over three months, which allows you to process, reflect on, and integrate your learning between sessions. Your coach accompanies you every step of the way.
The program takes a three-dimensional approach to transformation. You explore your personal and professional identities to understand your behaviors and reshape your future. You look at how you show up as a leader in different contexts, and discover levers and tools for self-transformation. You also understand the impact of your leadership context, and how you can exercise your agency and choices with confidence.
Over the three months that follow the program, one-on-one calls with your coach and Program Director, and a coaching call with a small group of peers will continue to support your transformation journey and keep you focused on achieving your goals.

Transformational Leader wasn’t just a program – it was a mirror. It pushed me not to just absorb knowledge, but to unlearn patterns, assumptions, and leadership reflexes that no longer serve. The cases and simulations went beyond business – they triggered deep inner reflection. The unexpected learning methods and safe, yet challenging environment brought me closer to self-awareness, my values, and how I show up for others. A truly mind-opening experience.

Transformational Leader was a game-changer for me as both a human and a leader. The program fostered an atmosphere of trust and learning, allowing me to further hone my skills in what I would call the ‘human’ side of leadership. I’m thrilled with the experience and grateful for the chance to grow personally and professionally.

Looking back and assessing the past to better understand where I am in my career today enabled me to imagine the way forward. The program transformed my apprehension into genuine curiosity and open-mindedness. I’m now in a position where I look at life with eyes wide open and a positive spirit.
