The Dale Carnegie Course at Keeley

Build Confidence. Strengthen relationships. Elevate your impact.

The Dale Carnegie Course is more than a leadership class—it’s a confidence-building, skill-sharpening experience that helps Keeley’ns show up more effectively in their work, their teams, and their careers. This globally recognized program strengthens the human skills that matter most: communication, trust, emotional intelligence, and the ability to connect with others in meaningful ways. 


  

This experience supports growth across AEOS and is a great fit for Keeley’ns in the Emerging level who are building core skills that translate into stronger performance and future leadership readiness. For those who aspire to become an Operational Leader, the Dale Carnegie Course provides a proven foundation that accelerates development and helps you stand out through how you communicate, collaborate, and lead yourself.

What Past Graduates Are Saying

“My Dale Carnegie experience got me outside my comfort zone with public speaking and gave me the confidence to step into session hosting and speak up more confidently in meetings. The communication techniques helped me better adapt my message to different audiences and better collaborate with different roles. The stress-management tools have allowed me to give myself grace while still achieving meaningful goals. Together, these skills have played a significant role in my career growth.”
