the Work

Athletes reach for their highest potential by putting in the work of training and skill-building with expert guidance from their coaches.  The same holds true for any individual or group interested in increasing their relational leadership capacity and capability, their range and level of impact, and the agility and resilience of their system.

Athlete poised at starting line, ready to sprint and Generate Impact on the track.

Core Themes

Money
Family
Leadership
Power
Mission
Identity

The heart of this work lives at the intersection of money, family, and leadership, followed closely by power (authority & influence), mission, and identity. The goal is to transform your stressors and challenges into thriving, high-performance experiences and environments where the systems, groups, and individuals are more and more capable of generating their desired impact, reaching for their highest potential.

Most high-performance athletes and teams are in constant pursuit of their next level of potential and performance. Rarely do they seek it and reach it without their partners, their coaching team. The same is true for this work.

It is an exploration, a learning and action laboratory.

The Generative Impact Framework

While each of the elements incorporated into this model are dynamic in and of themselves, it is the interaction between the elements and the two triangles that is both exponential and essential in the work. This combination of currencies and each element exerts a powerful impact on our mindsets, our behavior, our choices, our culture, our work, and the systems and communities we exist and engage in.

How we relate to each element of the triangle and how the interaction between the elements take shape become the dynamics of a leader’s experience and of the system and culture they are creating, leading, and operating within. This lens is hugely informative and orienting and creates a strong foundation for diagnostics on goals, vision, mission and success across the long term developmental arc and life of any change/impact initiative.
