Leadership in Action
Progressive Leadership is a model that encourages Leaders to think in new ways and question the status quo. These leaders model what they say and do by bringing their values to the table: diversity and inclusion, building relationships by bringing “heart” into the equation, enabling others to act thereby creating an environment of trust and collaboration.
Leadership in Action is a Progressive Leadership Program experience for business owners, independent professionals, corporate decision-makers and emerging leaders.

I highly recommend [Jacquie's] program. Jacquie led us through an understanding of leading yourself in order to be a progressive leader. I came from a place of never thinking about “leading yourself” beyond a matter of self-discipline. But, through the program, I gained perspective on my own leadership style, strengths and challenges. Program topics were very relevant, including gender diversity and implicit bias with subject experts and I appreciated being able to learn and discuss sensitive issues with a group of peers in a judgement free environment. Jacquie is a skilled group discussion facilitator, asking just the right questions at the right time, encouraging each participant to engage in a way that is comfortable. I began applying my new perspective and skills immediately in my conversations with clients. I am more efficient and effective with those conversations, I am more aware of hanging out too long in my comfort zone and feel more confident about my new business challenges. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about the program.
Jacquie has helped me discover my voice as a leader, and through her coaching I’ve strengthened my relationships with my colleagues at work, become a better manager for my staff, and become a stronger voice and leader within my organization. Her lessons have been eye-opening and I hope to continue to work with her!
