About The Distinct Leader

The Distinct Leader is a must-have resource for executives, subject matter experts, managers, entrepreneurs, and anyone focused on improving their leadership expertise. Our purpose is to help you translate your talent into measurable value.

We believe anyone can be a brilliant leader. But leadership isn't developed in a one-hour workshop or a half-day training put on by your HR department. Stop overpaying for workshops, "management intensives" and other content dumps, and give us a try instead. We're helping goal-oriented leaders take their business, careers and personal brands to the next level.

Be warned, we fully live and breathe the active learner approach. To get real results you must commit - in a community - and get consistent, active feedback. Most leadership programs fail to do these things well. We do things differently here, and our community gets results.

Are you ready to become a Distinct Leader? Get started today.
