SLII® is a globally recognised leadership framework that equips leaders to tailor their leadership style to the needs of each team member. Resulting in more focused leadership, stronger relationships, and higher performance.
SLII® is hands-on, adaptable, and extensively validated - making it one of the most widely adopted leadership models worldwide. Developed by Blanchard®, a global leader in leadership development, SLII® is exclusively offered in Denmark through CfL.
We provide tailored in-house programmes, open enrolment courses, and certification options - giving your organisation the flexibility to train in a way that fits your goals.
SLII® equips your leaders with a shared language and a practical framework for adapting their leadership style. It strengthens relationships, creates clarity, and more effective leadership in a world of constant change.
With SLII®, both formal and informal leaders learn to:
Set clear goals in collaboration with team members.
Adjust support and direction based on each individual.
Conduct honest, growth-focused conversations that help team members move forward.
Adapt their leadership style to fit the situation and needs at hand.
Build stronger relationships and boost team motivation.
Apply a consistent leadership methodology - across teams, departments, and borders
Adopting SLII® empowers your leaders to understand what truly drives each team member – and to adapt their leadership style accordingly. By aligning support, direction, and feedback with the individual's skills, motivation, and development needs, leaders ensure that employees feel acknowledged, valued, and supported.
This personalised approach fosters stronger relationships, higher engagement, and improved job satisfaction – while also reducing staff turnover. SLII® also provides a shared language for leadership conversations, helping to build a culture of trust, clarity, and ongoing dialogue across teams and departments.
The result is a more motivated workforce, stronger performance, and a resilient, people-first leadership culture.
SLII® is a world-renowned leadership framework developed by Ken Blanchard and rooted in the principles of situational leadership. Through training in SLII® , you will learn to use a model with four leadership styles tailored to different types of employees:
Directing is used when the employee is inexperienced and needs clear instructions.
Coaching is applied when the employee has some skills but still needs guidance and support to improve.
Supporting is used when the employee has some experience and skills but still needs encouragement and recognition to maintain motivation and performance.
Delegating is appropriate when the employee is highly skilled and experienced and can take full responsibility.
The SLII® model also emphasises the importance of creating a supportive workplace culture.
