Management Development for the Future (MDF) is a dynamic, agency-exclusive, individual, and organizational development experience that primarily targets the middle management tier of a correctional organization. It is composed of three hybrid phases occurring over approximately 12 months. Learning strategies used in this hybrid development series include independent e-learning courses, an online 360-degree feedback leadership assessment, additional assessments, individual reading assignments, individual developmental coaching sessions, and the development of personal leadership development plans. Participants will prepare a dynamic Leadership Plan and undertake action-based learning projects focused on the relevant issues in their agencies to apply skills and strategies learned in the program to build organizational capacity and manage organizational change.
Participating agencies are selected by NIC.
