Leadership Program: The Path to Dynamic Leadership in Today’s World
In an increasingly complex and globalized business world, it is crucial for executives to lead themselves and others effectively through challenging times. Daimler Trucks relies on Certified Management — a certified leadership development program for executives from Daimler Trucks’ service partners in Sales and After-Sales. This exclusive program was developed by Daimler Truck Training in collaboration with Formation4You as a joint project.
The program offers managers from Daimler Trucks’ service partners the opportunity to develop their skills in a targeted and personalized way. The qualification spans one year and is divided into three key modules: “Leading Yourself,” “Leading Others,” and “Leading the Business.”
The Qualification Process
The Certified Management Program follows a clear, structured, and dynamic process that comprehensively addresses the demands of the complex industry environment. Through e-learnings, virtual classroom trainings, in-person camps, and workshops, participants acquire both theoretical knowledge and practical skills, creating space for personal growth in their professional roles. This blend of digital and face-to-face formats ensures effective knowledge transfer that can be seamlessly integrated into everyday work.
Strategic thinking, innovation management, and change processes are at the heart of this one-year journey. Guided by the trainers from Formation4You, participants navigate the program through a real-world project with regular progress assessments. The program concludes with certification. By the end, participants not only hold a personal toolbox filled with self-developed strategies but have also successfully implemented a real project within their organization.
This year DACH – next year locations all around the world
At the end of 2024, the first participants were certified. We warmly congratulate them and are delighted to see the many developments that have become visible among all participants this year. Meanwhile, the fourth cohort of the Certified Management Program has started in the DACH region. In 2025, the program will continue internationally in other countries.

They praised the structured and easy-to-understand format of the online seminars and the pleasant pace. Many were pleasantly surprised by how engaging the virtual sessions felt and are looking forward to further events, particularly a face-to-face meeting with the group. Overall, the atmosphere was lively, and expectations were met, which has increased anticipation for the upcoming certification courses.
