The three of us share a commitment to helping leaders to achieve transformation and become the “best version” of themselves that they can imagine. Through our leadership development research, teaching and coaching work over the past decade, we have become increasingly interested in examining ways to accelerate leadership development change and to increase levels of profound self-awareness.
