Providing an impactful, transformational learning opportunity that facilitates participant-specific “breakthroughs” is the inspiration for an advanced professional program offered through the Greater Reading Chamber Alliance (GRCA).
The three-month Breakthrough Academy—facilitated by Executive Coach, Tom Rhoads—creates a space for participants to feel supported as they let go of automatic reactive patterns and tendencies. They will take on courageous new ways of thinking, communicating, and being in situations personally and professionally in their journey and quest for mastery.
The Academy combines group sessions, one-on-one executive coaching, as a forum for addressing:
- Aspirations
- Goals
- Objectives
- Frustrations (e.g., feeling stuck or overwhelmed)
- Extraordinary growth
Who should attend:
- Individuals that possess authenticity, commitment to growth, and openness to coaching conversations (i.e., alternative ways of interpreting and responding to situations and patterns of thinking and reacting).
- Participants are required to contribute as effective and respectful listeners for each other.
- Completion of the Essentials for Effective Management and Essentials for Effective Leadership is strongly recommended, but not required.
Why the Breakthrough Academy?
A key aspect of the Breakthrough Academy is “the breakthrough.” The new results that each participant is committed to achieving through their investment in themselves and the Academy. The work of personal transformation requires a commitment that is often deemed unreasonable by people who expect traditional training and development program approaches yet withhold the personal commitment to take them self on in the process. The inner work of observation, reflection and intentional creation and implementation of growth plans provides extraordinary learning, results and sense of freedom that can be replicated and sustained in other areas of participants life and over time.
