What Senior Leaders Are Saying

“I have used the principles of Resilient Leadership for years, and they have been foundational for the leaders I work with in complex and dynamic client environments. RL gave me REAL tools: being a "Step Down Transformer," getting on the "Balcony" to see how my actions impact people, and understanding the "Triangles" in all human relationships. RL training and Executive Coaching have challenged me to see new ways to assess every challenge I face as a leader. RL has been a partner on the entire journey — with just as much impact on my personal life as in the workplace.”
Richard McLaughlin
President, MasterCorp Commercial Services
“The Resilient Leadership program is the best and most impactful leadership development program I have encountered in my career. Its principles have had a lasting impact on my teams and organization overall. Resilient Leadership transformed how I lead, enabling me to navigate complex challenges with greater clarity and purpose. I recommend this program wholeheartedly and without reservation to any leader who wants to lead with resilience, authenticity, and conviction.”
Jaap Venema, Ph. D.
Executive Vice President and Chief Scientist, Personal Care Products Council, Washington DC
(formerly, Chief Science Officer, U.S. Pharmacopeia)
“What makes Resilient Leadership training and coaching so different from so many other trainings I've been to in my career is that trainings are at such a deep level. It's different than a tool or a book that you pull off a shelf. It really is a different way of seeing. What I learned through Resilient Leadership was the ability to identify anxiety, both in myself and in the people around me, and to really try to be a non-anxious presence, a step-down transformer as the organization changed. I have people come up and thank me for having them take this training — they said it changed their lives, and that is tremendous.”
