Leadership is an inside job. Our ability to be creative and inspiring leaders, to make clear and strategic decisions, and to cultivate positive relationships with others, all stems from self-understanding. Our relationship with ourselves is the foundation for leading teams and to our own experience of fulfillment in life. 

Human and leadership development are one and the same. Leaders must continuously develop themselves and be resources for others to evolve. While some may say this is not a role for business, we believe this is essential for business growth and our best chance at advancing society.

Leadership development for the past two decades has largely adopted an “outside-in” approach, focusing on behavioral management and quick fixes. While it may yield short-term results, this approach rarely leads to true development or systemic change. One may learn how to quell bad habits temporarily without ever truly understanding their root sources. 

An outside-in approach reduces the essence of people to their behaviors and ignores their innate potential to evolve. This view is “mechanistic,” addressing people as “cogs in the wheel” of the business machine. This enables passivity and victim behavior and treats team members as children, not independent adults who are self-directed in pursuit of their own destiny. No wonder innovation is scarce and so many people feel disempowered, burned out and disengaged at work. 

Taking an integral and whole-picture view of human and leadership development, our inside-out approach supports leaders to develop the self-mastery, critical thinking skills and business acumen required to become true leaders in today’s world. Inside-out leadership forwards regenerative thinking and offers a humanistic and living systems model for understanding the purpose of organizations - to unleash human creativity and potential. 

We don’t believe in silver bullets or quick fixes - we guide leaders through the noble journey of self-development to become the highest version of themselves as human beings first and leaders second. 

We offer innovative education, immersive developmental experiences, coaching, and timely support to help leaders raise consciousness around leadership, strategy, and culture to enable purpose-driven, creative, and thriving people and organizations.
