Transformational Leadership Program (TLP)
Ok, so you want to be a transformational leader, the kind of leader who gets things done and creates winning teams that deliver results. You don't want to waste your time doing things that don't matter, that burn out teams, and that overpromise and underdeliver. You want to level up your leadership skills and achieve personal and career growth, no matter the economic environment.
That's where the Transformational Leadership Program (TLP) comes in. Led by 120VC Founder, Jason Scott, this online training is designed to help you gain purpose-driven, people-first, and outcome-obsessed project and team leadership principles and practices.
You'll learn how to apply agile, enterprise, product organizational change management, portfolio management, and program management disciplines through practical how-to teaching, guides, and templates.
At the end of the program, you'll have the skills and confidence to enable teams to consistently deliver what matters. You'll become the kind of leader that companies will fight to hire, and teams will want to work with. Plus, you'll earn PMI 47 PDUs/CEUs.
Don't be a note taker, a process wonk, a time cop, a 'yes person', a hack, an imposter, a middle manager of mediocrity, or a corporate commodity.
Be a transformational leader who gets sh*t done. The next online cohort starts Sept 6th.

About the instructor
"Don’t waste your time doing things that don’t matter. That doesn't deliver an impact. That burns out teams. That over promise and under deliver. Hope is not a strategy. If you don’t change things up, you’ll keep getting the same results. Like Einstein said, that’s crazy. Instead, become the go-to transformational leader who can confidently enable teams to consistently deliver what matters." - J. Scott
The TLP is led by Jason Scott, founder and CEO of 120VC and PMI-Authorized Training Provider (ATP)
J. Scott is the anti-thought leader who has proven that actions speak louder than words. Growing up in Los Angeles, he learned early on that grit and courage could overcome any lack of talent. After joining the Navy and becoming a Naval Rescue Swimmer, J. founded 120VC to help people and teams get things done that really matter. He has spent over 20 years leading global transformational efforts for various companies and is the author of two Amazon-bestselling books. J. is a sought-after keynote speaker and has a passion for mentoring and training a new generation of leaders, leading him to start the Transformational Leadership Academy.

The TLP class was terrific and I highly recommend it. There are many valuable lessons (even for someone like me who has been in the field for 30+ years), and I'll share some of the highlights that you'll benefit from:
- You'll learn a roadmap for a practical way to actually deliver value as opposed to theory.
- Identifies standards for all projects to adhere to (in addition to any company specific rules and regulations) that allows senior management to make knowledgeable decisions when comparing the status and benefits of one project over another.
- Discusses “active listening” to get the team to define and focus on a common goal.
- Discusses focusing on what CAN be done (not what cannot be done).
There are too many benefits for me to list all of them. I fully endorse this course, and I'm available at fred.stein@pminyc.org if you have any questions about it.

Practical, real, eye-opening learning exercises
This was such a wonderful yet unique course. The group at 120VC have really spent time to hone in on what is important to be successful in today's world and have packaged those lessons in easy to use applied examples that lay out the foundation for how to get stuff done . The leadership strategy they teach is not at the cost of the team but rather by figuring out how to motivate and encourage the team members to engage and bring their own unique self to the party to support the end goal. 120VC presents concepts by assigning learning in self paced, independent modules then brings a small cohort together to share what was learned bi-weekly over a 14 week period. What an amazing group of people! Most courses teach theory but this course is focused on practical application and looking at things from a new perspective, to help focus teams and leaders on the problem at hand and resolving it together. The true power of teams come from the people. Such a great way to connect with others and get stuff done! We communicate to LEAD!

Everyone should take this course
Throughout my career in leadership, I have attended many workshops, classes, and certifications on leading better OR driving results. I have never had a class experience that binds the two together with one critical foundational piece - Being Human. The class blends neuroscience, leadership theory, process, and best practices simply and effectively with coursework that empowers you to retain and engage. You are set up to hold yourself accountable for your success in the class, and that is a powerful lesson to take back to your team. I would recommend this class to anyone, regardless if they work in project management or not (because we are all driving results, right?).

Ted Talks that Walk the Walk
As a more junior Creative Project Manager working at a startup, there were a lot of opportunities to learn new skills at my company but no concrete means of learning how to be a great leader. Being held responsible for other team members during the onset of remote working, and the inevitable truth that it would be here to stay, assured asynchronous working styles would remain a necessary adaptation of daily professional life. I was skeptical the class would be a series of theoretical nonsense, but was ecstatic to find that the foundations of all the lessons were actual practices upheld by 120vc, married to principles and lectures from some of today’s most critically-acclaimed leaders. Furthermore, these practices are applicable to a transferable methodology that will assure the project keeps moving forward! I’ve already recommended TLP to some of my peers, and I'll keep doing so.

Do it because it is the right thing to do.
120V's TLP is full of simple truths about leadership and project management that are either typically forgotten or go against the grain at many companies. One of our cohort's running themes was "do it because it is the right thing to do." When I start putting the lessons from the TLP into practice, even though my employer did not require them, I began to stand out as someone who knew how to get the right things done.
