Every extraordinary leader we have served tells the same story. At some point in their journey, they faced the painful reality that the “business side of their work” would be an endless repetition of disappointing setbacks if they didn’t get better at the “people side of their work.”

"Defining the core values that I lead from has been so helpful for me and our organization. This exercise alone has smoothed the way for so many more beneficial outcomes in our work environment. But it goes beyond defining. John was helpful personally in navigating the implementation and communication of these core values. I don’t think I could have implemented well without guidance."
"This training is different than anything we have ever done as a company. We have redirected the ship and are altering our focus. We are asking better questions and have a new definition of ‘Serving Leaders.’ It was a great investment on our part."
"One of the learnings I took from the Serving Leader Cohort was that there are no well-rounded leaders, but that you can build a well-rounded team. This completely changed my approach to leading a company. It allows me to be honest about my own strengths and weaknesses and bring on team members who have complementary strengths. It has enabled me to build a team that provides far better leadership than I could provide on my own."
"As a Serving Leader, we are working through people to achieve the goal. When people do amazing jobs in their respective areas, the end result will be that the organization will have amazing impact on the clients that we serve."
"All the events of 2020—being forced to meet online and stay at home—provided the perfect moment for Center for Serving Leadership to guide my team to examine and clarify our purpose, mission, and values. We now feel far more ready to face the future than we did going into this season."
