Thought-Provoking Free Training on Cutting-Edge Leadership Topics

At bci, we recognize the importance of offering free training in order to spread best practices relating to shift leadership, talent management, DEI, and belonging to the widest possible audience.

Since March 2020, we’ve offered several dozen free Leadership Lens webinars on a leadership topic almost every month and have now trained tens of thousands of participants.

Focusing on a different leadership area each month, including bringing in thought leaders and experts as guest speakers, our hour-long free Leadership Lens webinars tackle some of the most cutting edge, challenging, and sensitive topics. Our webinars address complex and difficult subjects head-on and offer opportunities for nuanced and thoughtful discussion.
