Individual Leadership Plans
Tailoring Programs For Impact
FFI has developed an innovative approach to leadership and life development for our participants, called Individual Leadership Plans (ILPS). Specifically, FFI staff build a personalized plan for each participant that we use alongside the participant to measure their progress throughout the program and at the culmination. FFI uses a multipronged approach to design tailored programs and objectives for each individual that align with their team goals.
