“We need a leader who’s bigger than the job,” was a colleague's insight years ago as we talked about who could succeed as the next head of the Space Station Program. He didn’t mean a big ego; we’d seen a number of them stumble already. He meant big like a mountain range; big like the ocean. How does one become this expansive and powerful? By harnessing the energy of the whole leader and artfully working with the energy of any situation. That's what we help leaders do...be bigger than the job.

Right energy, Right now...
What are the chances of you using the right energy at the right time? Pretty random if you don't know the energy patterns, or what you're using most of the time. The result is partial performance and needless exhaustion. Imagine getting better results with less struggle. Move to Greatness shows you how.
If you or your company are just coping with complexity,
you'll eventually get overwhelmed;
if you're only playing catch-up, you'll never fully catch up;
if you're changing too quickly, you'll confuse customers
and employees alike;
if you're playing only to your strengths, you'll overdo them.
We focus on a different kind of leadership...
leadership that transforms
We help leaders…
flip from coping with situations to transforming them, from partial performance to whole leadership, from being prisoners of their style, to artfully managing their own and others' energy. Whether it's an upsized role, a downsized team, improbable growth, or ridiculous barriers - whatever situation leaders face, we help them be bigger than it.
Our purpose is…
to catalyze the development of whole leaders and the success of the businesses, organizations, and teams they lead. We do this through powerful integration of the whole person and the wise managment of energy, paradox, and innovation in everything from rethinking business models, to re-energizing oneself and re-engaging colleagues.

For leaders and practitioners…
Our integrated perspective and research into energy patterns inspired the development of the Focus Energy Balance Indicator (FEBI™), for understanding and authentically expanding leadership abilities, improving communication, teamwork, and more. Understanding the energy of teams and organizations, and the motivational requirements for high performance and full engagement, led to the creation of our latest tool, the Focus Climate Indicator (FoCi™). In addition to our direct work with leaders, we train and certify coaches and other development practitioners in our innovative, energy-pattern technology. Learn more.
