A global pandemic transformed how we show up at work, and in life.

Are you observing…

  • Burnout from team members who are required to shift directions quickly

  • The struggle of team members to maintain work-life boundaries

  • The “business as usual” model no longer works

  • Strained relationships within and across organizational teams

  • The old way of leading impedes forward motion for the individual and institution

  • Your people are feeling undervalued, overworked and unseen for their effort and service

It doesn’t have to be this way.

Invest in your people

Investing in your people has never been more important.

As a compassionate and forward thinker, you recognize that engaged team members are essential to the advancement of a healthy organization. The task of refueling and preparing your leaders and teams to adapt to the fast-changing times has fallen to you.

We believe people should have the awareness and the skills to lead and navigate themselves through these experiences.

We have taken our decades of leadership experience in higher education, private sector and coaching, and created a coach-based leadership program called A New Kind of Leadership (NKL).

NKL partners with conscious leaders and organizations to support their teams and people to lead themselves.

How has your NKL experience impacted you?
