Sandler Leadership Acceleration Program (SLAP)

Why Leadership Training Matters:

Uncover the pivotal elements that contribute to employee retention and organizational triumph. According to Glassdoor data, a toxic work culture surpasses pay by 10 times in predicting turnover. Our Sandler Leadership Acceleration Program (SLAP) directly confronts these issues, empowering leaders with skills to cultivate a positive and flourishing workplace.

Key Insights from Glassdoor Data:

  • Toxic work culture is a leading cause of turnover.
  • Issues include failure to promote diversity, disrespectful environments, and unethical or abusive behaviour. 

The Cost of Delay:

For every year a company delays leadership development, it costs 7% of their total annual sales (Zippia Research).
