Northrop Grumman Newport News: Apprentice School - iLead
In its Apprentice School, Northrop Grumman Newport News trains selected employees in a shipbuilding trade and also prepares them for future leadership. The Apprentice School wanted students to learn and practice nine specific leadership principles, while being inspired to leadership by the company’s rich 113-year history. This award-winning course used a person from the company’s history to illustrate each leadership principle. Students learned about each principle through the example of the historical mentor. They also viewed interviews with current employees illustrating the principle, practiced in a simulated situation, then created a personal challenge and action plan related to the principle.

The potential awkwardness of the situation often caused managers to avoid feedback conversations. This award-winning course helped managers identify and overcome their barriers to giving feedback, structure a feedback conversation, build skills in dealing with negative reactions to feedback, and plan specific feedback conversations. Along with scenarios, practice exercises, and simulations, the course included a feedback planning tool that managers could use whenever they needed to address a performance problem.
