February 2026 Cohort Gives Perfect Scores Across the Board
Our February 2026 Essentials Lab just wrapped, and we’re thrilled to share that participants gave the experience a perfect 5 out of 5 stars for both overall experience and facilitation! This intensive two-day leadership program, expertly facilitated by Gloria McConnell Passman, continues to transform how new supervisors and emerging leaders approach their roles.
What Participants Are Saying
The feedback speaks for itself. Here’s what attendees had to say:
“Today was really eye opening; however, it was encouraging as well. I am excited to implement what I have learned.”
“Loved the class. Learned so much. Role play was surprisingly FUN!!”
“Great class! Loved the role play and getting uncomfortable to grow. Using the skills learned in real time was helpful. Thinking differently and hearing from other perspectives was so helpful.”
“Couldn’t LOVE the role play more! It was the perfect opportunity to experience the situation with time to think process. Play it out.”
“The best class I have ever been a part of!”
What Makes Essentials Lab Different
Essentials Lab isn’t your typical leadership training. Over two immersive days, participants dive deep into the core competencies that transform good employees into exceptional leaders. From understanding your PACE® Color Palette to mastering difficult conversations through real-time role plays with professional actors, every moment is designed for immediate, practical application.
The curriculum covers essential leadership skills including self-awareness, professional presence and composure, effective communication, driving accountability, delegating work, and creating actionable development plans. But what truly sets this program apart is the hands-on experience—participants don’t just learn concepts, they practice them in a safe environment and leave with tools they can use immediately.
Who Should Attend
Essentials Lab is designed for new supervisors, team leads, and ‘step-up’ employees preparing for future leadership roles. If you’re transitioning from individual contributor to leader, or want to strengthen your leadership foundation, this program will give you the confidence and competence to excel.
