There is a difference between understanding leadership and being a leader as your natural self-expression. One is conceptual, the other shows up in action. Being an Exceptional Leader was developed in response to the critical need for quality leadership in organizations and a lack of available quality real-world, action-oriented training on leadership.
This course is a 'Leadership Laboratory,' encapsulating leadership at its core - demonstrating it visibly, tangibly, and allowing participants access to a new way of being that was not previously possible. It is a life-altering experience that provides access to real leadership.
What is the 'Being an Exceptional Leader' course?
An in-depth, hands-on leadership course unlike anything you have experienced. This is not a check-the-box course. It is a first-person, real-time exercise in leadership based on participants lived experiences and how things occur for the individuals and collective cohort. Participants will walk away fundamentally changed in how they show up as a leader professionally, personally and in their communities.

" I came here to unlock myself, as I felt something was holding me back in my career, and now it's not even about me. I want to create a Center of Excellence for IT & Business Partnership.
The shift in my thinking comes from the freedom I feel. This freedom has come from simply being aware of my own being (the way I act, react, think, behave, make decisions, etc). I haven't actually consciously made any changes; just the awareness itself has this amazing sense of freedom to be myself, freedom to accept myself, freedom to create my future. I have started to make different choices, acting and reacting differently without thinking about it. I don't think anyone who hasn't gone through the course can relate to this. You have to go through the course and discover for yourself.
Thank you for opening my eyes to the world I have been so-called living in. It feels and looks like a new world with limitless possibilities."
