Evidence-based programmes that cultivate resilient, self-aware leaders and high-performing teams
You know the pattern.
Brilliant people either promoted into leadership roles or showing high potential, talented, driven, technically excellent, but struggling beneath the surface. Operating from survival mode rather than strategic clarity. Caught between delivering results and managing their reactions. Burning out while trying to prove themselves. Or being afraid to step outside of their comfort zone.
The cost isn't just individual.
But here's what we've learned: sustained high performance comes from rewiring how leaders think, feel and show up - for themselves and with others.
Our programmes don't offer surface-level strategies or temporary motivation. We work at the level of mindset - creating lasting transformation in how people lead, collaborate, and perform.
The result? Leaders who inspire rather than exhaust. Teams that thrive under pressure. Cultures where psychological safety and performance coexist.
What We Deliver: Leadership and mindset development rooted in neuroscience, psychology, and application back in the workplace.
Every programme blends practical tools, deep self-awareness, and embodied learning. We don't just teach concepts, we create experiences that rewire patterns and build new neural pathways.
You'll see:
- Compassionate, performance-driven leadership that inspires excellence without burnout
- Improved resilience and emotional agility in the face of pressure and change
- Stronger team connection and psychological safety that enable honest communication and innovation
Sustainable, high-performing cultures built on growth mindset, not survival instincts.
Our Programmes
1:1 Mindset & Leadership Coaching
For: Leaders and high-potential talent navigating transitions, pressure, or pivotal growth moments
The Challenge:
Your senior leaders are technically brilliant. They've earned their roles through expertise and results. But leadership at this level demands more than technical mastery; it requires self-awareness, emotional intelligence, strategic influence, and the capacity to inspire others.
Many arrive in leadership positions without ever learning to lead first. They're reactive under pressure. They second-guess their decisions. They struggle to initiate, delegate, set boundaries, or manage their energy. And the cost, to them and the organisation, is significant.
The Transformation:
This coaching partnership enables a rapid, sustainable shift from a mindset of Survival to Growth, unlocking the ability to lead with clarity, resilience, and purpose.
Through targeted transformation of thought patterns, emotional responses, and behavioural habits, leaders learn to access their full potential and create meaningful impact in their teams, business, and life.
This is deep, results-driven work that cultivates grounded confidence, strategic influence, and authentic connection in leadership.
Focus Areas:
- Leadership mindset and confidence
- Managing energy and emotional resilience
- Communication, influence, and authentic leadership presence
Structure:
- 6 × 90-minute coaching sessions
- Diagnostics
- 6 weeks of Positive Intelligence (PQ) app-based practice and support
Mindset to Growth
For: Functional, grade-based, and project teams adapting to change, complexity, or transformation
The Challenge:
Your teams are capable. Experienced. Technically strong. But when change hits (restructures, new leadership, market shifts, increased pressure or simply, desire to grow), they revert to old patterns. Silos strengthen. Communication breaks down. Innovation stalls. People become defensive, risk-averse, or disengaged.
This isn't a skills problem. It's a mindset problem. And mindset determines how teams respond to complexity, ambiguity, and pressure.
The Transformation:
Mindset to Growth, an award winning programme from the Mindset Practice, provides the tools teams need to move from a mindset of Survival to Growth. Through experiential learning and Growth Indicator feedback, participants strengthen their resilience, inclusion, and agility, enhancing both individual and team performance in complex, fast-changing environments.
This isn't theory. It's practised, embodied, and immediately applicable. Teams leave with tools they can use the next day, and the mindset shifts that sustain them over time.
Key Outcomes:
- Increased performance and learning agility
- Reduced burnout and enhanced resilience
- Improved inclusion and psychological safety
- Greater confidence in communication and collaboration
Delivery: Virtual or in-person, supported by interactive online learning
Includes: 12-month access to the Mindset Practice platform
Best suited for: Leadership and talent development at all levels
Strategy & Leadership Growth Programme for Technical Consultancies
Structure the business. Strengthen the leaders. Sustain the growth.
For: Technical consultancies - engineering, planning, surveying, environmental and similar firms - growing quickly and ready to build clearer structure, stronger leadership, and sustainable performance.
The Challenge:
Fast growth often stretches the systems, communication, and leadership capacity that once worked.
This shows up as:
- Founders spread thin between delivery, management, and growth
- Unclear roles and accountability
- Bottlenecks in decisions and execution
- High workload pressure and reduced resilience
- Culture strain and inconsistency as the team grows
The business is successful - but scaling feels messy, pressured, and founder-reliant.
The Transformation:
This programme creates a shift from reactive leadership and stretched systems to a confident, structured and scalable organisation.
You move from:
- Running on founder effort → Running on systems and shared leadership
- Daily firefighting → Forward-focused strategic leadership
- Unclear roles & ad-hoc decisions → Defined accountability and consistent execution rhythms
- Talent depending on individuals → A business that empowers, develops & retains its people
- Pressure & fatigue → Resilience, clarity, and capacity to grow
It’s the shift from a busy business to a designed business.
From leading alone to leading together.
From running fast to growing sustainably and intentionally.
Key Outcomes:
- Strategic clarity and aligned leadership direction
- Stronger leadership capability and emotional intelligence
- Defined roles, accountability, and rhythm of execution
- Empowered team with collaboration and confidence
- Measurable shift in behaviours and performance
- Founders freed to work on strategy, not firefighting
- Sustainable growth without burnout
- Clarity, confidence and calm control - with a business designed to scale.
Delivery:
A structure + mindset consulting and coaching programme delivered in partnership with The Gameplan™.
We work directly with your leadership team to build the systems, behaviours, and habits required for high-performance, resilience, and growth.
Best suited for:
- Technical consultancies with 10-100 people
- 2-10 senior leaders/founders
- Firms that have outgrown early-stage systems and team structures
- Leaders who value clarity, logic, and measurable improvement
- Organisations committed to growth without sacrificing wellbeing or culture
Why This Work Matters
Traditional leadership development focuses on competencies: strategic thinking, communication, and decision-making. And those matter.
But competencies alone don't create aware leaders. They don't shift the mental models that keep leaders stuck in survival mode.
We combine neuroscience, psychology, and embodied practices to create lasting change, not just new knowledge, but new ways of being. Leaders don't just learn new frameworks. They rewire how they think, regulate, and show up.
The result?
- Leaders who inspire rather than manage
- Teams that collaborate rather than compete
- Cultures where performance and wellbeing coexist
- Organisations that thrive through change rather than just survive it
