RBLP® Community of Practice


When people earn one of our leader certifications, they become members of the RBLP® Community of Practice. Our community understands that being “brilliant at the basics” of leadership is essential for professional success in any occupation. We also know that earning a leader certification can provide significant career benefits, especially for young professionals.

The RBLP® Community of Practice is defined by our mutual interest in building and leading resilient teams. We know that in any organization, getting the work done can be hard. Sometimes, it can be really hard. We know that resilient teams thrive in challenging environments because they can overcome adversity, and then adapt and grow together.


Next Actions for All Certified Leaders


1. Complete the post-exam survey and provide a Google review.

Within 24 hours of administering a certification exam, we send out a Congrats email to those who achieve a passing score. That email includes a link to complete a post-exam survey. Collecting feedback from our certified leaders is essential for our credibility and reputation. Your thoughts about the benefits of leader training and certification are important to us and the public.

Please complete the post-exam survey. We publish updated survey results on our homepage every month. As you might expect, we are quite proud of our historical survey results. They are a testament to the reliability, validity, and sustainability of our leader certification program. If you have not completed the survey yet, please do so.

The Congrats email also includes a link to provide a Google review of Resilience-Building Leader Program (RBLP®). Google reviews enhance our visibility in both national and local search results. More importantly, they help build our credibility and reputation with the public. Many consumers rely on online reviews as much as personal recommendations. Positive reviews on Google help build trust and can provide us with a significant competitive advantage. If you have not provided a Google review yet, please do so.


2. Create a LinkedIn profile.

If you don’t already have a LinkedIn profile, you should create one now. LinkedIn is a powerful networking tool that connects professionals from every industry. LinkedIn profiles serve as online resumes, allowing professionals to showcase their education, experience, and achievements.

Connecting with others on LinkedIn fosters opportunities to share ideas, job opportunities, and career advice. Thousands of thoughtful articles and industry insights are posted on LinkedIn daily.

Add RBLP, RBLP-C, or RBLP-T after your name on your LinkedIn profile. You can also list your certification in the Headline section below your name on LinkedIn.

Once your profile is setup, connect with Mark Holman, our Chief Community Officer at RBLP®. Next, search for “RBLP” and connect to other certified leaders on LinkedIn. Start with those in the occupations, industries, and geographies of most interest to you.

Each person who earns one of our leader certifications is issued a digital badge via the Credly platform. Digital badges can be shared online and added to your LinkedIn profile for maximum visibility and recognition. They can attract the attention of recruiters, industry peers, and other professional connections.

Digital badges are also an easy and secure means for employers and others to verify your certification status.

Update your resume and cover letter. Submit the training and certification learning objectives and hours to PMI, SHRM, and other professional associations for PDUs.

Our Community of Practice LinkedIn group provides a forum for constructive dialogue between members with varying levels of experience. Through regular interactions and mutual support, we share our leadership knowledge and experience. Membership in this group is limited to people that have earned one of our leader certifications.

As certified leaders, we have a growth mindset and we understand that knowledge, skills, and abilities can be developed through hard work and dedication. We are self-directed, lifelong learners who take initiative and accept responsibility for our own learning.

5. Update your resume and submit for CEUs/PDUs.

In a competitive job market, adding your RBLP, RBLP-C, or RBLP-T leader certification to your resume can distinguish you from other job candidates. Your certification reflects your initiative and commitment to self-improvement. It indicates that you have taken extra steps to enhance your leadership knowledge and skills.

Keep in mind that employers are always thinking about the future growth of their organizations. When they hire people, they are looking for people who are not only capable but also adaptable and eager to learn. Organizations of all types want to hire people who can take on more significant responsibilities in the future.

8. Commit to always being “brilliant at the basics” of leadership.

In today’s complex and fast-paced world, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by minutiae or sidetracked by fleeting leadership fads or trends.

Getting back to basics during times of adversity provides clarity and focus for leaders. Getting back to basics fosters self-reflection and growth. Getting back to basics allows leaders to refine their knowledge and skills, bolster their effectiveness, and address areas for improvement.

A steadfast commitment to being brilliant at the basics of leadership provides a solid foundation for both new and experienced leaders to build on. Our certified leaders can get back to basics by reviewing the Building and Leading Resilient Teams curriculum often.


9. Read books from our Professional Reading List.

Reading is essential for professional development because it exposes leaders to new ideas, concepts, and perspectives. Reading can help leaders discover new ways of thinking and it enhances mental flexibility.

Regular reading is known to improve cognitive functions like memory, concentration, and critical thinking skills. Reading improves writing and speaking skills by enhancing vocabulary and comprehension.

Reading can help leaders relax and reduce stress. Books can also be a source of inspiration and creativity. Books that focus on personal growth, motivation, and mindset can provide strategies for setting goals and overcoming challenges.
