OUR SIGNATURE PROGRAMS

OUR SIGNATURE PROGRAMS •

Next Level
Leadership

Our signature 3-day experience focuses on the core skills leaders need to succeed: DiSC communication, emotional intelligence, productive conflict, delegation and accountability. Currently offered in Detroit twice a year, with Chicago coming soon.

Executive
Coaching

One-on-one coaching for leaders with clear potential and a few key areas to develop. Whether we focus on what’s needed to enhance their leadership skills or help them ascend within the organization, we build a tailored approach around their specific goals.

Customized
Workshops

No two teams have the same challenges. We draw from a broad library of leadership topics, including trust, accountability, conflict, delegation, and feedback, and shape each workshop around what your team is working through.

We know leadership first-hand.

Our programs were developed by experienced leaders who’ve led teams, driven results, and faced the same challenges your leaders face.

With decades of real-world experience across financial services, manufacturing, healthcare, technology and other industries, we design leadership development that is practical, relevant, and built for real-world environments.

As a 10-Year Emerald Award-winning Everything DiSC® Authorized Partner and certified in The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team® and Center for Creative Leadership frameworks, we combine proven tools with customized facilitation and coaching.

Every program, from our 3-day Next Level Leadership experience to one-on-one executive coaching, is tailored to your team’s specific challenges.
