Thought provoking, energetic and informative

Discreetly cultivating leaders that are worth following.

Accomplished professionals like you are rarely questioned, challenged or encouraged to change and grow. At some point however, a large granite mountain appears that cannot be denied; it speaks to the core of your being and invites you to become more.

​

In a supportive yet challenging, confidential relationship, we use assessments, dialogue, assignments and feedback to devise a personal action plan that aids your quest toward exemplary leadership. Success begins with listening to your mountain and summoning the courage to climb higher.

​

Emerging Leaders  Learn tools and skills that facilitate your successful transition to your new role, while  avoiding typical missteps of new leaders. 

​

Established Leaders  Invest in renewing and revitalizing your leadership skills. Give yourself permission and space to pause, reflect and  conquer complacence that can result from a track record of success and unchallenged power.

Astutely realign your organization's strategy for success.

Learning for

Transformation

& Growth

In many of my classes I learned the technical skills that a leader should know, but in Dr. Myers' class, I learned how to be a leader!

Transformational learning solutions are designed to cultivate high integrity, high caliber talent at all levels. Master-classes in leadership development, organizational change and personal growth expand practical skills and professional capabilities.
