How is this different from Harvard, Wharton, or Korn Ferry?
EDGE is the only premium executive cohort we have found combining four things in one twelve-month program: Hogan-grade instruments, structurally faith-built content, individual pre-post measurement, and an outcome-linked refund. Drop these qualifiers and a competitor appears.
Does my company have to be Christian?
No. The participant needs to want the faith content, not merely tolerate it.
What do I have to do as the sponsor?
Nominate the 360 raters. Sit the year-end review. Your level of involvement can be tailored to your preferences; these are the minimum requirements.
How much time does this take them away from work?
Three multi-day retreats, roughly one to two PTO days per retreat. One monthly coaching session, and pre-work and applied assignments between modules, done outside work hours. Additionally, what is learned at EDGE is immediately applied inside their job rather than alongside it.
How does the guarantee work?
Growth is measured at intake and close on instruments EDGE does not score. Complete the program without measured growth above the threshold where movement is statistically real, and we refund the tuition in full.
