Leadership development

Developmental leadership is a modern leadership model that has been developed by the Academy of Defense. The model is a Swedish version of Transformational leadership, one of the world's most well-known leadership theories. Through research, it has been possible to demonstrate improved efficiency within organizations and the model is considered by many researchers to be the best.

What works in leadership development

Effective leadership development combines practical training with reflection and ongoing support. Programs that are linked to real work tasks and tailored to the organization’s needs tend to deliver the best results.

Key factors that work include:

  • Practical tools: Concrete methods for motivating, communicating, and making decisions in daily work.

  • Mentorship and networking: Opportunities to learn from other leaders provide inspiration and confidence.

This approach strengthens both leaders and employees, fostering engagement and long-term results for the organization.

Efficient management groups

Based on research on efficient and high performing management groups we examine your management group and tailor efforts to consolidate ability to make decisions, efficient role taking and clear communication. We focus on measurability and changes in behavior in all of our efforts.

Strong managers

We work with tailored setups to strengthen managers in self-awareness, role taking and ability to make decisions. Our work is based on the concepts of Developing leadership and Indirect leadership from Försvarshögskolan in different setups adapted to strengthen managers in the key behaviors that characterize successful leadership in your organization.

Value for you

The leader gains practical tools and methods to motivate, inspire, and engage their team in ways that foster both increased job satisfaction and improved results. By creating clarity, encouraging participation, and building trust, the leader becomes better equipped to guide the team forward toward shared goals.

The program also provides deeper self-awareness and strengthens the leader’s ability to reflect on and further develop their daily leadership practices. This means that the leader not only becomes more conscious of their own actions, but can also translate these insights into concrete behaviors that make a difference in everyday work and create long-term value for the organization.
