Many leaders are standing at a crossroads.

You got where you are because of your natural gifts and hard work. Now you're facing increasing pressures, competing demands, changing relationships, growing levels of uncertainty - and are concerned about your potential blind spots. 


You're at a point where you've seen others struggle, give up, or burn out. Yet you know you have potential inside you to lead at a higher level.


The solution isn't working harder in ways that leave you stretched and stressed to the point you're not bringing your best to your team.


You can expand your leadership capacity when you rise above the overwhelm and fear and get absolute clarity on the invisible factors that influence your success as a leader.

Program Benefits

Unlock your leadership potential (without getting caught in the traps of imposter syndrome or overwhelm) when you settle this one inner conflict

Boost staff commitment & retention by tapping into the single most influential asset a leader brings to workplace relationships

Set a foundation for lasting success in times of change by investing in the one critical resource many overlook or are left to develop on their own

How the program works

In a cohort of like-minded peers, over 12 weeks you'll receive:

Weekly group coaching + Reflective exercises & application + Personal assessment + 1:1 office hours
