The RISE Leadership model asks executives for an honest self-assessment of their current state of being.  Our immersive executive leadership training course starts by narrowing the lens to uncover what lifestyle activities and choices are contributing to a thriving – or shaky – state of wellbeing.  In an intimate setting limited to 10 executives, participants are bolstered by others who share similar successes and challenges, but also bring different perspectives.

Through open conversation and various holistic exercises in beautiful natural surroundings, we set the stage for curiosity, reflection and the self-insight necessary for awareness and growth. When leaders gain a better understanding of their own mind-body-spirit connection and create a strategic map for their personal and professional success, they are able to apply it to their leadership of others. Intentional living becomes a driving agent for change, with a ripple effect that impacts all levels of an organization.

Best experience of my life! Learning how to bring my best self to Kohler was literally life shifting! I can’t wait to send other Kohler Execs through this and start a wave of wellbeing inspired leadership!
-  Maureen Allen, VP Talent, Kohler Corp.

….Work took off like a horse-race on Monday morning, but I have a new sense of calm and feel more confident because of not feeling so stressed. I have new techniques to read my colleagues, enabling me to be a better coworker and leader. Being in touch with myself and understanding my values are highly beneficial for my organization. Leading from a place of wellbeing will make work a better place to be, for me and my team.
- Becca Heinze, D&I Leader, City of Tucson

This course will help you look inside yourself, and clearly define your purpose, so that you can become the leader you were always meant to be!
-Amanda Maxfield, CEO, Taylor Andrews Academy - St George

My experience at RISE was phenomenal and our facilitators were top notch! I encourage anyone serious about personal& professional development to attend I’m already implementing learnings (wellbeing &  leadership), but a big insight for me was around compassion. Our session on Compassion in Business, helped me understand that being more compassionate with myself, will help me be more compassionate with my team – the human element which is so important in authentic leadership!
- Jack Mullen, CEO, Summer Street Advisors

As leaders we get stuck in our ways at times and I know personally I have fallen into bad habits and not taken the time Ineed for myself and my team. Delving into my purpose and how I can apply that at work was truly impactful. It has already changed my interactions with my team. This time to reflect & learn was just what I needed to get back ontrack!
- Kati Elfers, Sr. Business Officer, University of Cincinnati

The RISE Course, focused on the very relevant subject of wellness, is one of the best leadership courses I have ever taken! My key takeaway….living and leading with intention in all that Ido.  I’m already implementing learnings and highly recommend to other executives ready to expand their leadership capabilities.
-  Wendy Balinski, VP Corporate Functions, AIG Inc.
