We’re proud to recognize the latest group of graduates from our Leading Others program, part of our broader LeadingU leadership development initiative. Over the past 15 months, these individuals dedicated themselves to developing the critical skills that define effective frontline leadership: from navigating difficult conversations and coaching for success to leading through change and fostering inclusive, high-performing teams.
The Leading Others cohort brought together team leaders and supervisors from across our enterprise to grow through virtual workshops, simulations, and collaborative learning. This program isn’t just about theory; it’s about equipping leaders with real-world tools to lead with purpose, alignment, and accountability.
Inside the Program
The Leading Others experience is designed to balance practical leadership tools with personal growth. Through virtual, cohort-based learning and real-time simulations, participants explored six core areas of leadership:
-
Personal Leadership – understanding values, strengths, and self-awareness
-
Performance Leadership – building focus, accountability, and results
-
Team Leadership – building trust, motivating teams, and creating inclusive environments
-
Change Leadership – navigating uncertainty and driving transformation
-
Visionary Leadership – aligning team goals with the company’s strategic direction
-
Cultural & Inclusive Leadership – promoting equity and belonging within teams
Participants also took part in the ExperienceChange simulation, a hands-on, scenario-based exercise where they practiced guiding a team through real organizational change.
Words from the Graduates
“I have participated in different leadership development, management training, and personal development courses throughout my career. What made the Leading Others program valuable, is that it provided additional tools to enhance those previous courses, and it was tailored to the practices, programs and management philosophies here at Moore. It helped me learn how to function in this role specific to our ESOP and our company.” – Tara
“My leadership skills are growing through the ‘Leading Others’ program by enhancing my emotional intelligence, communication, and strategic thinking. I’m improving at navigating change by empowering my team, fostering innovation, and managing conflicts.” – Mike
“One of the most valuable takeaways that I have gotten from the Leading Others Program is the feedback preparation guide as part of the crucial conversations. I have used it a few times and it is very useful to help organize thoughts and communicate effectively.” – Josh
