Face-to-Face

 

For organizations looking to professionally develop leaders in their organization, the CJO team works directly with you to create a tailored training package for your organization or to deliver a pre-packaged program. We believe that leaders learn best through engaging exercises and candid conversations about the Army Profession. All options are built around that core principle using proven facilitation and reflection techniques. The training programs can fit any length of time from one hour to two weeks and can be incorporated as a standalone program or part of an existing LPD event.  Our wide range of options, flexible scheduling, and ability to custom create content for your organization ensures the best possible package to meet your intent and achieve your desired outcomes.  Below are a few of the options of what we offer.   Contact us to learn more.

Additional Information

CJO will provide the expertise necessary to conduct all of the above events. To create the best possible experience, the unit should provide:

  • Spaces conducive for the events. Most options work best in large, open rooms with small tables each seating 4-5 people. Our team can provide specific guidance for your location. The space(s) should have A/V to support sound and video run from a laptop computer.

  • Supplies such as butcher paper, markers, and handouts. The total cost of these supplies typically does not exceed $50.

  • Travel costs. We can cross-org the funds through DTS so that your organization retains final review and oversight over travel costs.

 

Timeline: We like to coordinate events at least 60-90 days out.  However, we may be able to accommodate requests less than 60 days out if we are not otherwise committed.  Organizations are encouraged to reach out as early as possible.
