Leadership Development

Confidence. Consciousness. Compassion

What distinguishes a great leader from a good leader? How is it that some leaders inspire and empower their people to be the best possible? Taking leadership to that next level means not only making the individual leader aware of their unconscious behaviours and biases and the impact these have on the people around them, but how to use this self-awareness to nurture what is working and change what is not.

At Leading Edge Professional Development, authentic leadership development is our area of expertise and our passion. Our programs develop intelligent leadership skills necessary to enhance the effectiveness of teamwork required to achieve company goals. What makes our programs more effective than other leadership programs? We can guarantee to meet your objective through our experiential sessions where horses are your teachers. Yes, horses! Horses are the ultimate addition to a team. They do not know or care about office politics – they simply provide honest, immediate and unbiased responses to individual and group energy, intention, actions and body language. Our experienced leadership coaches guide you through the session ensuring that you understand the interactions and how they apply to your leadership style when paralleled back to the office environment.

Quite simply – we make the invisible visible.

Executive Leadership Programs

As an Executive, it can be almost impossible to remove yourself from your leadership role and view your style and skills objectively – this makes it difficult to pinpoint how to continue to broaden your impact and strengthen your impact.

Our Executive leadership program provides the unique opportunity for participants to deepen their self-awareness. Horses require clear, authentic leadership. We work alongside you, with our horses, to elevate your leadership skills and build confidence and inspiration in your teams.
