Before You Lead a Team, Know Where You’re Headed.
A foundational course for leaders in senior healthcare who want to lead with clarity, alignment, and purpose — from Day One
Building the Foundation for Authentic Leadership
Too often, new leaders are handed the keys to a team and expected to perform — fast. But real leadership starts long before performance. It starts with self-awareness and direction.
In this course, Jerald Cosey walks alongside you as you define your mission, clarify your vision, and identify the values that shape your leadership — and invite your team into that journey.
This is Level One of the Leadership Academy: not a “basic” course, but a foundational one that honors where every leader begins.

What You’ll Gain:
- Greater clarity about who you are as a leader
- Tools to align your purpose with your organization’s mission
- An understanding of how to include your team in the leadership formation process
- A model for self-leadership that builds culture, not just compliance
- 1 CEU credit per completed module (NAB submission in process)

What’s Included:
- Four self-paced video modules (1 hour each)
- Downloadable slide decks, modeling-based worksheets, and reflection prompts
- End-of-module quizzes to reinforce learning
- Certificate of Completion
- Immediate application to your leadership role — whether clinical, operational, or departmental

Who It’s For:
- New leaders taking over a team
- Experienced professionals stepping into formal leadership
- Anyone ready to revisit the why behind their leadership journey
- Managers looking to strengthen their leadership foundation and team dynamics
- Organizations seeking to cultivate a culture of purpose-driven leadership
How This Fits Into the J.Cosey Speaks Leadership Academy
This is Level One of a five-level academy. Each level meets leaders right where they are — not based on title, but on growth.
Future levels will deepen your ability to lead others through Mission, Vision & Values conversations, facilitate workshops, and build lasting culture.
No matter where you start, this is where alignment begins. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Start here — and lead with intention.
