Twelve weeks

Future Me™

The leader you're becoming already exists. Most people just haven't decided who she is yet.

This isn’t a program about getting better at your job. Most people who join are already good at their job — that’s rather the problem. Competence became comfortable, and somewhere in there the question of what you were actually building stopped getting asked.

Twelve weeks moving from understanding yourself to defining your leadership, finishing with activation rather than reflection. It teaches Future Me Theory™, the companion to the Leadership Brain Framework™.

Embodiment

Leadership Impact

Most people are promoted for being good at the work, then left to guess at the job. This is the part nobody taught you.

Delivered in two parts: Leading Self, then Leading Others. The first builds the self-awareness, emotional intelligence and personal foundations that make the second possible — which is why they run in that order rather than as a menu.

It is the largest of the four programs: twelve modules and thirty-eight lessons, from values and vision through to conflict, coaching and the neuroscience behind how people actually change.

Format

Self-paced, two parts in order

Length

Leading Self: 7 modules, 20 lessons
Leading Others: 5 modules, 18 lessons

For women leaders · ten modules

OWL™ — Outstanding Women Leaders

Ten qualities that decide whether a capable woman is heard in the room or talked over in it.

Character, confidence, courage, compassion, composure, connections, career, communication, clarity and commitment. One module each, in that order, because confidence without character is performance and courage without composure burns out.

This is the online, individual version. The organisational Women Leaders Program — the one my team delivers inside companies through LeadershipHQ, with cohorts and facilitated sessions — is a different thing entirely. If you’re buying for yourself, you’re in the right place.

From the book · fourteen modules

First Comes Courage

Courage isn't a personality trait you were born with or without. It's trainable — and it has to be built before the moment that needs it.

The course version of my third book. Same argument, but structured so you actually do something with it rather than finish the last chapter feeling briefly inspired.

Fourteen modules that treat courage as a practice rather than a mood: what it is, where fear sits inside it, and what it asks of you at work, in a team, at home, and in the moments when the popular choice and the right one aren’t the same. It finishes with a pledge, because a decision you’ve written down behaves differently to one you’ve only had.

Where these live

The programs run inside The Leadership Association.

It’s the membership community I founded, and it’s where all four programs sit — alongside the masterclasses, the resource library, live events and everyone else doing the work at the same time. When you join a program, that’s where you land.
