Lead From Wherever You Are:

Lead From Wherever You Are is a framework for thinking about the way people inspire, influence and lead, whether from a position of authority, as a member of a team, or an individual who wants to help the people around them do their best work. 

There are four dimensions to the framework:

  • Define and make the most of what makes you tick.

  • Channel change into growth using the art and science of feedback that works.

  • Tie it all together into a personal and replicable playbook for inspiring growth and change.  It starts with understanding how to build trust with the people around you and learning tools to ensure everyone has a shared definition of success, and how we’ll know when we get there.

  • Communicate to inspire and influence.

  • Wire your brain for optimal decision making.

The Process:

We use a blend of proven leadership development tools, the current neuroscience of human interaction, the Results Coaching method, and the knowledge and experiences you bring to the program. We’ll identify and build on your real-world challenges and goals to practice the concepts.  And we’ll provide tools and support to turn what you learn into habits.  We’ll even give you tips on how to spread these ideas among colleagues, family and friends. 

The program includes six modules, each consisting of three to four chapters that include:

  • Facilitated instruction

  • Activities and reflection

  • Opportunities to apply each concept or tool to a real-world situation you encounter

  • Tools for practicing what you’ve learned and honing them as skills.

Frequently asked questions

  • If you mean, “do I have to be in charge of other people,” absolutely not!

    We think leadership is something you do, not someone you are. Leadership is for anyone who wants to positively inspire or influence other people - and that can be at work, in your community, at home, and anyplace you want to help people do their best woirk or live their best lives.

  • Currently, there’s no official accreditation associated. But, we promise you’ll leave with some skills others will notice. And, if that’s not enough, there will be a lovely certificate of completion for you to display as needed.

  • Not yet! But the last couple of years have shown me that nothing beats in-person learning. We can definitely put together custom, in-house workshops. Click on “Schedule a Chat” or Drop Me a Line” below if you’d like to find out more.

  • We are happy to give you a full refund up until completion of your first module. (Yep! At the very least you get one module for free!) After that, we are open to discussing a sliding scale based on how much of the workshop you’re completed.
