“Any organisation would find Circular Leadership a substantial benefit.”
“The Circular Leadership course provides leaders at all levels with the tools, insights and practical skills to improve employee productivity and engagement.
As an HR professional working with a variety of organisations both locally and globally, I have seen a seismic shift toward transparent authentic leadership as the vital ingredient for the success of any business and its employees. Not all leaders have this capability.
The Circular Leadership program provides leaders at all levels, as individuals or as a team, the tools, insights and practical skills to be that positive influence who can lead by example. The content is current, relatable and enlightening. I found its use of survey data to identify specific issues and transform into real solutions though the leaders live learnings a truly unique offering.
I believe any organisation would find Circular Leadership a substantial benefit not only to the development of its leaders but also a subsequent improvement of their employees engagement, productivity and overall happiness.”

The debate is over. Research convincingly shows that leaders make the difference between high-performing teams and all the other teams.
In the last 30 years I have seen this first-hand. I’ve led scores of teams, coached hundreds of leaders, and studied the impact of leadership on thousands of workers around the world.
I emigrated to Canada as a kid, built a couple of successful companies (after I grew up!) and earned my MBA at Kellogg School of Management. My sole focus in the past five years has been researching my passion:
How do leaders support their people to maximize their team’s performance?
This course teaches the four leadership fundamentals to busy managers who KNOW their teams could do more. The course is for those who want something practical that will start making a difference right away.
I’ll share with you everything I know: from mistakes and successes to the proprietary tools that will give you insights you’ll get nowhere else.
If you want your team to reach its performance potential, this course is for you.

“Your course is a wonderful learning experience.
It makes me a better leader.”
“I’ve been thinking about your session this morning on accountability and the previous sessions all day and I wanted to send through some feedback.
The way you have presented the information each week has been thoughtful, considered and I’ve found it to be overall a wonderful learning experience. Each week I’m given things to think about that have genuinely changed my behaviour and the way I’m acting with my team for the better.
I’m not quite sure what’s so good about the progression of learning but personally I’ve found it to be just enough to be comfortable so that I’m not overwhelmed but rather empowered to take a few learnings and implement some new strategies.
I found todays session particularly enlightening and it clarified a few pitfalls of mine in the past and allowed me to reflect and clarify what went wrong, and how I could adjust my thinking or behaviour in the future. I know it is making me a better leader, I’m still very early in my journey.
Your sessions have genuinely changed not only my behaviour but my perception and perspective of what it is to lead. I suppose I’ve always operated on instinct and your teaching has given me a language and a framework to understand why I have particular instincts and challenged me to communicate how and why. It’s given me a whole new way to look at things.
I have really enjoyed learning from you. It’s been a privilege. I’m sure I could do this course 100 times and learn something new each time. I know I have so much more to learn but I do feel like you’ve given a lot more clarity on what it is to be a good leader.
Thank you very much for your knowledge, your generosity and your kind spirit.“
