Motivational Interviewing for Leadership: MI-LEAD

Lead, engage, succeed.

This self-paced online course will give you the basics of MI-LEAD and provides concrete, person-focused tools that help to address ambivalence and engagement both on an individual level and at a group level.

These tools are an effective approach to developing skills as a transformational leader, one who can communicate well, enhance engagement, respond effectively to ambivalence and discord, and lead through change.

An evidence-based leadership development program that will skyrocket your Employee Engagement.

Those who went through our leadership development program saw an increase in engagement by 25% each year for the first three years, going from the 30th percentile to the 90th percentile.

What people who have done our MI-LEAD Training or read our book are saying...

"MI-Lead was one of the best leadership trainings I've gone to. It changed the way I engaged with my staff. I even made a cheat sheet that I keep at my desk."

–Dr. Barb, Hospital Executive


"I ordered the book as part of a course I took. Literally life-changing. You will want to learn more!!!"

–Sarah Jayne Gach


"I learned a lot about framing, change management, leadership, communications, and motivation in this well-written and well-researched book. As a doctoral student in Leadership Studies, this book goes on the “see if there’s stuff for the dissertation” list. A great read and a must-have in the leadership library."
