Did you know that some statistics show millennials will make up almost half the workforce in 2025?

Have you heard that 63% of millennials are concerned that their workplace does not develop their leadership skills? It's a staggering statistic that underscores the importance of nurturing leadership skills among the emerging generation.

The COCPA is looking for forward-thinking employers, firms, and colleagues committed to investing in the future of the profession to sponsor an emerging professional who shows great leadership potential. LeadFit is unique in that it includes two hours of one-on-one coaching that will focus on the individual's goals to level up their performance within your team. Sponsoring a participant in this program not only generates individual growth opportunities but also promotes a sense of employee/employer loyalty.

LeadFit isn't just another leadership program. It's a transformative journey designed specifically for CPAs and CPA-track professionals who are ready to take their leadership skills to the next level. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities within our profession, and LeadFit is tailored to address them head-on. By equipping participants with essential management skills and the confidence to pursue leadership positions within their organizations, LeadFit is not just about getting ahead; it's about blazing a trail of success for both the employee and your organization at large. With well rounded curriculum taught by facilitator Lorrie Tietze of Interface Consulting, LLC, LeadFit participants develop skills to lead with confidence both in the workplace and in their personal lives.

36% of companies polled in a 2017 survey by Chief Learning Officer magazine invested between $1,000 and $3,999 per person on Leadership development.

The COCPA is committed to offering this course at a reasonable price of $1,499 for members to encourage this important investment in the future of the leaders of our profession!

Sponsoring a team member will help to grow the future of your Organization- and ultimately, the future of our profession.
