Most managers were never taught to lead people
Managers are promoted for being great at the work — not for knowing how to lead the people doing it. They have the skills. They don’t have the beliefs.
MADP closes that gap. Your managers walk in performing competence. They walk out with conviction.
How MADP works — the PX3 Methodology™
Every module works three layers at once. Skills-only training changes what a manager can do. PX3 changes what they believe — so the behavior holds after the program ends.
Two tracks, matched to your organization
Both tracks are available now and matched to your organization’s goals and readiness. Each runs the full PX3 stack — Mindset, Heartset, Skillset — through every module.
What your managers do differently after MADP
Concrete, observable behavior — not a certificate on the wall.
- →Run a structured feedback conversation — giving and receiving — using a repeatable framework.
- →Diagnose what stage a team is in and apply the leadership move that stage needs.
- →Name a team’s real motivators and build engagement through development, not perks.
- →Work a decision through a collaborative process that builds consensus instead of resentment.
- →Address persistent conflict directly, then lead the team’s recovery.
- →Delegate to AI by task complexity and judgment required — and know when to override it.
- →Lead a team through change with the Transition Formula instead of managing reactions ad hoc.

WHY JOVAN
FITWho MADP is built for
MADP is designed for the layer of leadership that touches the most people and gets the least development.
You need new managers effective faster than they’re getting there on their own.
Management layers are shifting and people are unsettled.
New leaders stepping up, or a wave of first-time managers at once.
Managers are being asked to lead teams through the change, not just use the tools.
Used across industries — especially common in multi-unit and field operations, where managers are promoted from the floor. Not built for senior executive teams; that’s Jovan’s Executive Advisory work. MADP is for the mid-level.
MADP — frequently asked questions
What is the Manager Acceleration Development Program (MADP)?
MADP is Glasgow International’s manager development program for mid-level managers and supervisors. It closes the Belief-Behavior Gap™ — the space between what a manager knows about leadership and how they lead when it’s tested — and runs in two tracks: Leading Teams and Leading in the Age of AI.
Who is MADP for?
Managers and supervisors who were promoted for being excellent at the work and then handed a team with little or no formal leadership training. It is designed for the mid-level — not senior executive teams — and is a common fit for organizations in growth, restructuring, leadership transition, or AI adoption.
How is MADP different from other manager training programs?
Most programs teach skills. MADP works the beliefs underneath the skills at the same time, so the behavior holds after the program ends. Every module addresses what a manager believes about people, the conviction to act in hard moments, and the technique itself.
What is the PX3 Methodology™?
PX3 is Jovan Glasgow’s proprietary framework for closing the Belief-Behavior Gap™. It develops three layers together — Mindset, Heartset, and Skillset — rather than treating leadership as a set of techniques alone. It is the same methodology behind his senior-leadership work.
What are the two MADP tracks?
Track 1, Leading Teams, covers team dynamics, communication, motivation and engagement, decision-making, and conflict resolution. Track 2, Leading in the Age of AI, covers the shift from doer to delegator, human-AI team dynamics, leading through digital disruption, decision-making in the AI era, and the human advantage. Both tracks are available now.
How long is the program and what formats are available?
Formats range from a 90-minute executive brief to a 12-month leadership pipeline. The core format is a six-week cohort that meets 90 minutes per week. Half- and full-day workshops and three-to-six-month programs are also available, scaled to your organization’s readiness, budget, and timeline.
How much does MADP cost?
Engagements start at $5,000 for a 90-minute executive brief. Workshops, cohorts, and multi-month programs are priced by scope and organization size. The full investment menu is shared on a scoping call.
Is MADP delivered virtually or on-site, and where is it available?
Both. MADP is delivered virtually or on-site and is available to organizations nationwide across the United States, from Glasgow International’s base in the Dallas–Fort Worth area.
What results can our organization expect?
Managers leave able to run structured feedback conversations, diagnose team dynamics, resolve persistent conflict, and lead teams through change. Organizations that have worked with Glasgow International on leadership pipelines have seen measurable gains — including one accounting firm that grew revenue 8% in a year against a 1% five-year average.
When is MADP the right fit?
When the moment makes the gap undeniable: a growth or expansion phase, a merger or restructuring, a leadership transition, or an AI adoption that asks managers to lead through change. MADP works across industries — the niche is the moment, not the sector — and is common in multi-unit and field operations where managers are promoted from the floor.
