SLII® Powering Inspired Leaders™

Learn how to understand your team’s needs and have conversations that help them succeed.

Today’s challenges demand a situational approach to leadership

Leaders are under pressure. They’re managing change, leading hybrid teams, and navigating complex challenges—all while trying to keep people engaged and drive results.

But most leaders aren’t set up for success. Without a clear approach to leadership, they rely on a single style, even as the needs of their people evolve.

SLII^® changes that. It gives leaders a proven, practical framework to adapt their leadership style based on the situation and the person. They build trust, improve performance, and help people reach their goals faster.

SLII® Enables Leaders To Build Deeper Relationships

With more inspired leaders, morale and engagement will improve, team members will feel supported, employees will become more creative problem solvers, and company productivity will increase.

Accelerated development
SLII helps managers accelerate the development of their direct reports, from enthusiastic beginners to self-reliant achievers.

Speak a common language
When managers and team members speak the same language, misunderstandings, micromanaging, and frustration fade away.

Increase
retention
Leaders who match their style to the needs of their people improve morale, commitment, and engagement. Who would leave a job like that?

Unlock
Creativity
Research shows that employees who feel supported by their manager are far more engaged—and that is the foundation of innovation.

Proven, time-tested leadership model

SLII is an easy-to-understand, practical framework that enables your managers to diagnose the development level of an employee for a task: D1 – Enthusiastic Beginner; D2 – Disillusioned Learner; D3 – Capable, but Cautious Contributor; and D4 – Self-Reliant Achiever. Managers then use the appropriate directive and supportive behaviors to help them succeed: S1 – Directing; S2 – Coaching; S3 – Supporting; and S4 – Delegating.

Our award-winning learning design, The SLII Experience™, incorporates Blanchard’s latest research and state-of-the-art design theory. This creates a learning experience that allows for quick mastery of the methodology and enables managers to help their direct reports soar to new professional heights.
