Abstract

The Understanding Groups and Leaders (UGL) is an experienced based 5-Day intervention and one of the most popular leader development programs in Sweden. We found, using artificial intelligence, that participants’ self-descriptions differed in meaning before and after the UGL. Thus, suggesting a significant change in leaders’ identity after the intervention.
