Testimonials
Director of Business development
“This program has really validated how I feel as a leader. It’s helped me rethink how I express those emotions—and also how I understand my team’s. We’re all passionate, and now I have language to honor that on both sides.”
associate director, accounts
"As someone who is new in a leadership roll, I found the program to be very insightful to start thinking about my position through a new lens. I am excited to take my learnings back to my day to day and practice what was taught."
Vice President, events
“I’ve worked with some of these people for years, but this is the first time I feel like I really understand who they are. Being vulnerable in this space has brought out parts of us that never show up in meetings—and it’s made our team stronger.”
director of operations
“I appreciate that you don’t let us sit back and stay quiet. Everyone has something to say, even if they’re scared—and you help bring that out. This program is giving us a real framework to grow into the kind of leaders we want to be.”
general manager
“What stuck with me is that we’re all struggling with the same stuff—imposter syndrome, fear, overthinking. This session gave me a new lens for how I approach conversations, and reminded me I’m not alone in it.”
associate director, event production
"Nicole and John's leadership development program was highly informative and provided valuable insights into the type of leader I aspire to become. I appreciated the conversational format, which fostered engaging discussions with fellow leaders in the industry. These interactions were both enlightening and educational, enriching my understanding of leadership."
director, technical production
“I always think of that quote, I think it was a Lombardi quote: 'Great leaders aren't born, great leaders are made', and this is giving us a framework to actively work on being a better leader. So, I'm all in.”
