I attended a few leadership workshops over 5 years ago but I still use the tools and learnings from these workshops on a regular basis as I look to grow personally and develop the team around me. Rich’s work with leaders stands out from others as he challenges conventional definitions of leadership, finding the rare balance of leading where your head, heart, and gut all intersect. To do so, Rich brings frameworks and systems that are easily digestible allowing you to quickly adopt them as well as bring your learnings back to your team in a meaningful and engaging manner.

2020 was a challenging year for everyone, and the buildOn team was no exception. Working remotely, having to transform our work dramatically, and the added fundraising pressure that came with economic uncertainty threw our fundraising and marketing teams into misalignment. True Leader Coaching worked with our teams to build understanding and trust, create mechanisms for effective communication and collaboration, and align around one common goal. Now we are moving forward as one team with a commitment to our shared success. I know we could not have accomplished this without True Leader Coaching.
