RADIANT LEADER
A community of practice for transformational leaders
You’re either navigating change
or trying to make change happen.
(Probably both.)
You wake up anxious about the unknown, go to bed frustrated by resistance, or spend your days overwhelmed by complexity.
(Likely all of the above.)
You strive to have a powerful, positive impact,
in your work and in the world.
(Without burning out.)
You got this. And we’ve got you.
Welcome to Radiant Leader.
We practice transformational leadership (not just change management).
We lead with purposeful vision, strategic focus and intentional presence.
We cultivate teams that are both healthy and high-performing.
We see patterns, make connections and reshape systems.
We effect change because we embody change.
Radiant Leader is made for you if:
- You’re a deeply dedicated leader who’s reaching a breaking point
- You’re taking on a new change or challenge that’s inviting you to stretch
- You’re an accomplished leader at the top of your game… but it’s lonely up there
- You’re stepping into a leadership role and are determined to do things differently
- Your leadership approach isn’t getting the results it used to—and may be backfiring
Are you ready for Radiant results?
Tell me if this sounds familiar…
"That’s not how we do things here."
"We can’t change. We’ve tried it before."
"We would change, but [insert name here] won’t let us."
"We want change, but not like that."
"That’s just the way it is.'
My friend, the change you want to see is possible. The problem is that we’ve been doing change all wrong. We’ve been treating change like a transaction.
Transactional management tends to command and control. It stays on the surface, makes rigid plans and insists on compliance. It doesn’t account for complexity or resistance, which is why it fails at high rates. Meanwhile, it takes a toll on the team. Transactional management erodes trust, hinders progress and yields change fatigue. You’ve seen it happen, right?
Transformational leadership is radically different. It sets a purposeful vision and cultivates the conditions for others to embrace and achieve it. It takes a systems approach and prizes inclusive co-creation. It allows us to build healthy, high-performing teams, shape sustainable change, and have profound impact… without the burnout.
May I tell you my story?
My career has always focused on change—social change, organizational transformations and leadership development—and work has always been core to my identity.
For years I threw myself into my career with drive and ambition, working constantly and pushing hard. I told myself it was for a noble cause. I was rewarded and promoted for my efforts. Until I practically pushed myself off a cliff.
As I entered my 30s, I was struck by the sudden and alarming awareness that I’d been living my life on autopilot. That all of my choices were actually non-choices. And most disturbing of all for this overachiever, that my effort far exceeded my impact.
I realized that my ability to lead change required me to change first.
Fortunately for me, I knew a few wise and loving people who taught me simple practices for living my life more fully and working smarter. I stopped pushing myself and others, and started to see my work as play. I stopped struggling with change and learned to dance with it.
You might assume that my career slowed down as a result, but it had the opposite effect. If you listen to my full story (above), I’ll share how three fundamental shifts changed my life and work for the better:
1. Reorienting my personal navigation system from outward-focused ambition to a clear and actionable intention—and how this led me directly to the C-Suite
2. Cultivating a practice of being, not just doing—which I resisted until I had no choice
3. Stumbling into transformational leadership—and how this unlocked impact I could never have imagined
Today, I teach and coach transformational leaders all over the world, and I’ve created Radiant Leader as a place for us to practice these shifts and strategies together, but with less stumbling, more structure and more support.
No more lonely leaders
You’ve found your way here because you know that leading (especially leading change) can be as frustrating as it is fulfilling, as isolating as it is inspiring. But we can learn faster, grow deeper and achieve more in relationship with other leaders. That's the power of community.
And Radiant Leader is not just any community. It’s a community of practice. We come together to do the inner work of releasing old patterns that have kept us (and our organizations) stuck for so long. With each practice, we step more fully into our potential as authentic, aligned, powerfully transformational leaders.
None of us can do this alone. In Radiant Leader, you’ll never have to.
