Earning Criteria

Problem-Solving Process & Practice: The emerging leaders will learn a process for soliciting and synthesizing advice from their peers and applying it to solve problems at work.
1:1 Coaching: Each participant will be assigned a leadership coach and will receive six 1:1 coaching sessions.
Mentorship: A trusted network of advisors is a must for all leaders. Each participant will develop a relationship with at least one mentor.
Meaningful Work Experience: Each participant will work with their manager to identify a “meaningful work experience” outside of their day-to-day duties, which will require them to grow their skillset, and that will provide Workiva with real value.
