Agile Leadership

Successfully Surfing the Wave of Disruption

Agile Leadership - Driving Dynamic Change and Innovation

To succeed as a leader today, we need an agile leadership approach built to thrive on change.

An approach that doesn’t assume the world is constant and predictable, but instead acknowledges that conditions are always in flux and should be continuously challenged. This is the essence of Agile Leadership. The future belongs to those who embrace change, transform challenges into opportunities, and stay ahead of the curve.

From the initial contact to the implementation of our fit2lead Leadership Academy, MDI impressed us with their professionalism, dedication, and expertise. What stood out most was their ability to tailor training content to our company’s specific needs. They demonstrated exceptional skill in analyzing our leadership development challenges and crafting innovative, practical solutions. The trainers are not only highly qualified professionals but also inspiring individuals who know how to engage and motivate our leaders for the long term. Thanks to the modern methods and strong practical focus, our leaders gained valuable tools they could immediately apply in their daily work.

Our agreement with MDI allows us to use the same content and approaches for leadership development in more than 20 different countries – always in the requested language.

“MDI’s Management Development Curriculum was an important step in improving my leadership skills. Managing an international team with a diverse group of people requires the capability to adapt management styles accordingly. In this regard, and regarding a wide range of managerial requirements, the curriculum benefited me greatly. I was able to focus on MDI’s highly professional and practice-oriented approach and I feel more confident in my daily management work as a result.”

Roland Wiesmüller

Head of Sales, CSI Central, Nokia Siemens Network

“I benefited a lot from the two seminar days, but also from the design of the entire learning process. In the transfer phase, a few weeks after the training, we had a short webinar. The fact that the training doesn’t end with the session but is followed by further review of the material helps ensure that the learning is retained and not quickly forgotten. The topics have remained more present with regard to the webinar. As a result, I have been able to bring the contents more consciously into my everyday work.”
