  • 2 Short Stories

    "The High and Hard Road"

    "The Expectations Master"

    Two short stories from Academy executives who address the tendencies of a team to resort to crisis management rather than proactive problem-solving

  • 1 Song

    "Charmer"

    The Academy partnered and collaborated with the incredible artists at Songfinch and provided the language for this song and then Songfinch put that to music for you.

    This song is about the crucial conversation between the leader of a team and her direct report. The leader feels a sense of responsibility as a leader to guide her team towards improvement but her direct report initially feels uncomfortable with the idea of confronting difficult situations and prefers to avoid conflict.

  • Check Sheets

    The Academy's check sheets are a great visual aid that are commonly used by students in Japan. The answers are written in red. You cover the page with the included red check sheet. Text written in a dark color will be perfectly readable through the check sheet but the red ink will be completely invisible. This visual learning approach allows you to lookup correct answers and test yourself on what you've learned which are both recognized learning techniques to help you remember details of concepts you have already learned.

  • Assess Interpersonal Dynamics

    Review the Academy's Short Story and Song and test yourself from the perspective of the Interpersonal Dynamics which is essential for effective communication and for building meaningful connections, fostering trust, and exerting positive influence in personal and professional contexts.

  • 1 Set of 52 Mastery Cards

    The Academy's Mastery Cards are like little helpers that make learning fun and easy. They help you become a master at something by giving you lots of practice and repetition. Each card focuses on a specific skill from the Short Stories and Song and has exercises or activities to help you get better at it. The more you use these cards, the more you practice, and the better you become.

  • 1 Academy Bracelet

    Once you've completed your Academy Skills Kit, translate the information into your own words. Next, find someone to share what you've learned. After you share, pass along your Academy Bracelet. Educators have long noted that one of the best ways to master a skill is to teach it to someone else.

There is academic intelligence. There are chief executives putting their best foot forward on camera. Now there's the real-time, raw feed from years of the personal notes of the CEOs themselves.
