In the client's words

When I first chose to work with Steve, it was his passion and genuine energy that stood out. From day one, he didn't just consult from the outside, he fully immersed himself in our business, taking the time to understand our people, our challenges, and what truly makes us tick as a club. Since then, our business has grown significantly. We've been able to scale knowing that the foundations we're building are strong and sustainable.

Questions

Common questions

What does the Lead Differently program involve?
Lead Differently runs over six weeks, with one hour of training a week plus homework. You join as an individual through the Leadership Academy. The indicative price is $500 per person and the next intake dates are being confirmed.
Who is Lead Differently for?
Leaders who manage others without formal training in how to. The signs are familiar: inconsistent standards, disengaged staff, your best people leaving, and you becoming the go-to person for everything.
What happens on a team development day?
A team development day is single or multi-day and built around the team's objectives. It can run as a one-off workshop, a multi-session program or an offsite.
How does an engagement start?
Every engagement starts with the free discovery and culture audit. We review the current state of your leadership and culture, agree what success looks like, and give you a written report.
Where do you deliver?
Confirming this with the team. It will be published once agreed.
What does it cost?
Confirming this with the team. It will be published once agreed.
