SLII®. Powering Inspired Leaders™
Create success with a situational approach to leadership. SLII®, the world's most widely used leadership training program, teaches leaders how to build meaningful connections with coworkers that create exponential impact. When this happens, employees are more productive and engaged. And their organizations excel.

Proven, time-tested leadership model
SLII is an easy-to-understand, practical framework that enables your managers to diagnose the development level of an employee for a task:
The SLII® Model:
D1 – Enthusiastic Beginner;
D2 – Disillusioned Learner;

D4 – Self-Reliant Achiever.
Managers then use the appropriate directive and supportive behaviors to help them succeed:
S1 – Directing;
S2 – Coaching;
S3 – Supporting; and
S4 – Delegating.
​The award-winning learning design, The SLII Experience™, incorporates Blanchard’s latest research and state-of-the-art design theory.
