Partnerships

We believe that a leader’s growth is accelerated when they have a colleague who is simultaneously experiencing coaching, and can therefore create for each other a learning community. 

BES offers incentives to partners who enroll multiple leaders or register for bulk seats. We encourage our partners to take advantage of this offer, as this enhances the quality of experience for their leaders and catalyzes both their collective and individual development.
