Not Just Training. A Leadership Journey.

Leadership today is not about titles or tasks. It’s about finding clarity in complexity, purpose under pressure, and the courage to act with integrity for long-term success.

The Integral Leadership Development Program (ILDP) is not a standard training - it is a development journey. Designed for leaders who want to think deeply, act decisively, lead with meaning, and achieve long-term success. Rooted in world-class research from Oxford and Cambridge, and enriched by real-world experience, ILDP is integral in every sense: training and knowledge, inspiration and reflection, science and art, celebration and community.

From world-class laboratories and global faculty, to a medal-winning brewery and even the chance to conduct the AGH University orchestra - this program blends performance with purpose, offering a truly unique path to creating lasting value for people, organizations, and society.

Every organization has those people who make things happen - the ones others turn to for guidance, decisions, and inspiration. Some have been leading for years; others are just stepping into the spotlight. All share the same need: space to grow, refine their skills, and lead with greater impact.

You might recognize them:

• The Experienced Manager – Runs a capable team but wants to move beyond day-to-day problem-solving into long-term strategic leadership.
• The Rising Star – High-potential talent who’s already influencing others and is ready for bigger challenges. They need space to shape their leadership style before stepping into senior roles.
• The Change Maker – Leading innovation or transformation, often under pressure, and seeking tools to navigate resistance and complexity.
• The Academic Leader – Guiding research or academic projects, balancing intellectual ambition with the challenges of leading people and building trust.
• The Connector – Working across teams, sectors, or cultures, aligning different perspectives toward shared goals.

Whether they lead people, projects, or ideas - ILDP helps them lead with clarity, purpose, and confidence.

ILDP is designed as a journey – a carefully curated path that combines world-class learning, transformative experiences, and meaningful connections. From the very first step, you will be part of a unique leadership laboratory where research, reflection, and real-world practice come together.

Pre-Work

Before the program begins, you gain exclusive access to unique learning materials, tools, and assessments that prepare you to make the most of the ILDP journey. This stage helps you clarify your goals, reflect on your leadership story, and arrive ready to engage.

Optional Pre-Session: Science & Research

For those who want to go deeper, we offer an optional pre-session in which participants can engage with current leadership and organizational research. This creates the opportunity to connect with the scientific foundations of ILDP and even co-shape research directions.

The Core: Three Sessions of ILDP (8 days)

At the heart of ILDP are three immersive sessions delivered in Kraków by an international faculty (Kraków, Warsaw, Rome, Cambridge).

Possibilities of Partnership with TILL 

ILDP is more than a program – it is an entry point into the wider Integral Leadership ecosystem. After completing your journey, you can:

• Stay connected through an international network of leaders and academics.
• Co-create case studies, reports, and publications based on your ILDP experience.
• Explore opportunities for organizational partnerships and tailored programs.
• Join future Labs and advanced development initiatives in Cambridge and beyond.

ILDP equips leaders to navigate complexity, make confident decisions under pressure, and inspire high-performing teams - especially in research, development, and innovation environments.

It’s a practical, tools-focused, and dynamic program built around the real challenges leaders face every day. We combine:

• Hands-on workshops – mastering skills through active, practical exercises.
• Leadership simulations – realistic scenarios that sharpen strategic thinking under pressure.
• Case studies – applying insights from real-world leadership challenges.
• Mini-lectures – research-based perspectives that expand and deepen leadership thinking.

Our faculty are experienced, results-driven practitioners who go beyond delivering content - they involve participants in active skill application and challenge them to reflect on their own leadership practice.

During ILDP, participants will:

• Strengthen specific leadership competencies through immersive practice.
• Apply proven tools and methods tailored to leading in research and innovation settings.
• Sharpen decision-making in conditions of uncertainty and time constraints.
• Gain fresh perspectives through structured reflection and peer exchange.

By the end of the program, leaders leave not just with new knowledge - but with the clarity, tools, and confidence to lead with greater impact in complex, high-stakes environments.

In today’s fast-changing world, leaders are often tempted by quick fixes. ILDP invites you to take a different path – one of authenticity, depth, and long-term success. It is not about changing who you are, but about becoming more fully yourself and empowering others to do the same. And when you do, you may be surprised how far you can go. ILDP is a strategic investment in people, leadership, and sustainable value.
