Cambridge Leadership Associates (CLA) develops leadership cultures for changing organizations.  Through consulting and training in the skills and behaviors of Adaptive Leadership™, we expand and enhance the leadership that organizations need to change and thrive in complex environments. 
 
Adaptive Leadership is different from other approaches; it develops the leadership of the system as a whole.  It is grounded in the belief that exercising the leadership required to change and thrive means guiding people and organizations through adaptive challenges—the ones that question long held beliefs and demand new ways of doing things.  Widespread leadership capacity is often the key to whether an organization can close the gap between where it is and where it aspires to be.
 
Adaptive Leadership also goes beyond other leadership models in that it focuses on:

• The leadership skills required when the going gets tough;
• Developing a shared understanding of what exercising leadership entails, which beliefs and behaviors are essential and which must change;
• Support for smart risk-taking to build the capacity to adapt and create the future they want; and
• Recognizing what the organization and its people must give up in order to move forward.
