Leadership Huddles – A Flexible, High-Impact Model for Leader Development

This is a 2.5hr Deep Dive Workshop

What if leadership learning felt meaningful, practical, and doable? In this session, explore Leadership Huddles, a self-paced, applied professional learning model piloted with ACS Abu Dhabi and Huddle Up Learning. Participants chose a leadership identity (Change Agent, Skilled Facilitator, or Team Builder), engaged in short video lessons, and applied tools directly with their teams.

In this session, you’ll experience a mini-version of a huddle: engage with content, try a practical strategy, and reflect in real time. We’ll unpack how this model supports leader development through flexibility, relevance, and collaboration.

Leave with a replicable framework and inspiration to reimagine leadership learning in your context, without adding to the overload.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Leadership Huddles offer a self-paced, applied approach that allows leaders to engage with content on their own schedule, making professional growth more manageable and meaningful.
  2. Creating a culture of collaboration, belonging, innovation, and shared ownership is essential for turning a group of individuals into a cohesive, high-functioning team.
  3. The model emphasizes immediate application of strategies with teams and real-time reflection, fostering relevance, peer collaboration, and lasting impact in leadership development.
