Introducing…The Strong Leader Series

Each half-day workshop blends easy-to-apply, real-world leadership tools with the power of personal insights using the lens of CliftonStrengths®, helping participants connect their natural talents to create their unique leadership style.

The inaugural Strong Leader Series™ didn’t just deliver a program, it built momentum,” says South Haven Regional Business Hub Executive Director, Elizabeth Bernhard. “And in 2026, that momentum continues, deepening its impact across South Haven. Beyond the numbers, what stood out most was the shift in the room: leaders showing up with more clarity, more intention, and a stronger belief in their ability to lead well.”

Whether you’re stepping into a leadership role for the first time or scaling a team and making high-stakes decisions, this series will help you:

• Understand and apply your natural strengths to everyday leadership challenges
• Communicate with influence and build trust across your team and organization
• Think strategically to make better, faster, and more aligned decisions
• Inspire and develop others by focusing on what makes each person thrive

Through engaging discussions, practical exercises, self-reflection and group interaction, leaders learn how to communicate more effectively, make confident decisions, and motivate their teams with clarity and focus.

What’s Included

• Three interactive half-day workshops
• CliftonStrengths® 34 assessment and personalized report
• Practical leadership tools and templates
• Opportunities for networking and peer learning
• Sessions are led by a diverse group of experienced local leaders from The Purpose Partners.
