WIM Leadership Lab
8 customized training modules to support high-potential individuals looking to advance their careers in the mining industry.
WIM is extending their Professional Development Initiative with Cultivage’s 8-module Leadership Lab. Labs are currently offered bi-annually. The Leadership Lab is the start of a program that WIM is hoping to grow into multiple learning series available for their members. In partnership with Brooks & Nelson and Cultivage, WIM is able to offer the Leadership Lab at a discounted price of $1,500.
The program is designed to support individuals in the mining industry as they transition into leadership roles and assume responsibilities of managing others, advancing business development goals, growing talent within the organization, and overseeing company deliverables.
The curriculum offers an arc of leadership skills that includes strategic communication, direct-report and stakeholder management, team navigation, and conflict management. The sessions are highly interactive and incorporate case-studies with opportunities to put learning into practice. In addition, the latest research on women and leadership is integrated throughout each of the sessions.

- Communicate more effectively across organizations.
