For almost 20 years we have helped businesses develop managers and leaders to:
Our leadership programs are tailored to your industry, business and strategic objectives. They are well-researched, evidence-based, modern and inspiring. Importantly they are mostly taught by our founder Kristyn Haywood who is an expert in the field of leadership education and a leader herself.
Highly capable, experienced leadership trainers are critical to developing strong leaders. We adapt the materials, models, research and activities to any context making the learning immediately applicable. Those who don't have experience leave it to the participant to make sense of the content which doesn't always translate into learning.
Our Vision
To live in a world where going to work inspires people to make a positive contribution to how people live, do business and connect.
Our Purpose
To support Leaders and HR teams in their cultural transformation initiatives by delivering exceptional facilitation, coaching, and leadership education which enables the whole organisation to consistently evolve.
Customer collaboration — We partner with you using agile methods to co-create change leadership programs. We focus on measuring our impact by using your business metrics.
Continuous Learning — We are obsessed with keeping up-to-date on evolving leadership research and literature not because we have to but because we need to. It’s our obsession.
Contribution — We are motivated by the higher purpose of developing capable leaders who make a positive difference to their team members, their families, the organisation and greater society.
Courage — We believe in telling the truth, even if it hurts. We balance this with compassion and understanding – the perfect mix to support our leaders to step outside their comfort zone and into the learning zone.
Compassion — We nurture the leaders we work with and don’t judge them. We meet them where they are at on their leadership journey with understanding and humility.

"Kristyn's style is unique, engaging, encouraging and honest. I learnt more from her than in any management training I did before. She is unbelievably knowledgeable and a true Master of her trade. We were taught many useful tools to help manage our teams and workloads while staying true to ourselves and confident in our skills. The coaching sessions were deep and meaningful. They helped me to realise that to be a true leader you must work on your personal development as well as we simply can't separate out our professional identity from our personal identity."

I was part of a group session facilitated by Kristyn and then received exec coaching from her. On both occasions, our team and me personally gained immensely from Kristyn' skills. She is an excellent facilitator and a coach who is able to make you think about things that matter to your company, team and to you.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Kristyn for any similar leadership services.
