“The Alaka’i Leadership Series offered me a level of leadership development beyond the basics of leader skills. The course delved into characteristics and traits of effective leadership and would benefit all leaders at my company but especially managers and directors who are directly responsible to influence, develop, and inspire the next generation of leaders.”

All workshops are in-person, and facilitated by Jordan Chouljian of OnTrac Partners.  For more information, pricing, or to schedule the workshops, please contact us.
