Accelerant Leader

Activating Leaders

Accelerating impact

Leadership development is about increasing your capacity to accelerate your team.

That’s complex. It means curating and sustaining a culture where team members can operate at their highest and best. It means building meaningful trust. Redefining conflict as a vehicle toward collaboration. Casting a compelling vision for engagement and impact. Driving development toward a shared mission. It’s a lot to do.

Accelerant Leader is designed to support leaders in creating trust-filled and growth-focused space where their teams are accelerated toward their best. Leaders who are delivering the best experiences for their teams, and who are activating the best outcomes from their teams.

How can we help you?

Stagnant Development + Growth

Too many leadership programs are too prescriptive.

It’s hard to get leaders excited about the same old same old. Rightly so. The Accelerant Leader content combines business best-practice, human psychology, and anecdotal wisdom, resulting in conversations that resonate, engage, and lead toward greater leadership impact.

Manager Overwhelm + Burnout

Managers are often unprepared for the task of leadership.

Too many managers have been advanced without getting enhanced. They’ve gotten promotions to leadership roles without the training necessary to move them from “doers” to “leaders of doers.” That’s a transition that without training leads to burnout and exhaustion.

Leader Upskilling + Coaching

Emerging leaders need next-step, not status quo, coaching.

Our succession plans often have us identifying high potential talent, but not necessarily pairing that talent with the coaching necessary to equip them to take the organization to the next level. Accelerant Leader helps you coach toward where you want to go, not just where you are now.

Reach Out

Culture Consistency + Circulation

Culture ambassadors are your next best opportunity.

Great culture is about ownership. It’s one thing to hear some good ideas, but it’s another thing to transfer ownership of those ideas to the team. Moving your teams through Accelerant Leader allows them to take ownership and become ambassadors of an Accelerant Culture.

How We Create This Space

Accelerant Leader Workshop Series

This is a series of workshops designed for graduates of the Accelerant Culture Workshop Series, and is built to help leaders and managers become the kind of leaders able to effectively curate an Accelerant Culture. We’ll help leaders expand their understanding of people-leadership principles, and practice tactical exercises to build the competencies of a leader who can activate and accelerate their team’s very best. The Accelerant Leader series merges operational excellence with team psychology, resulting in conversations that resonate, engage, and lead toward greater leadership impact.

Session 1: Building Trust

Trust is like a tire. It provides traction when things get messy, direction as things change, and the friction necessary to keep us stuck to one another and to the vision of the team.

Session 2: Redefining Conflict

Conflict is simply a spark. Used well, it turns individual ingredients into explosive collaborative power. Used poorly, it’s a flash that steals our attention but doesn’t drive our progress.

Session 3: Casting Vision

Vision isn’t just about a destination; it’s also about the communication necessary to get us there. It’s a constant journey of inviting, accepting, and aligning to a shared goal.

Session 4: Driving Development

Development isn’t about promotion or advancement; it’s about enhancement. It’s holistic betterment, and the resourcing necessary to keep being invited toward the front edges of growth.
