The Be That Leader Experience

Build mental fitness where leadership happens: under pressure.

Be That Leader combines the seven-week Positive Intelligence® program with live facilitation, coaching, peer learning, and real-world application. Participants do not simply learn a new framework. They practice a new response until it becomes more available in the moments that matter.

The method

How behavior change is built

  • Daily mental fitness reps

    Short, app-guided practices fit inside a real workday and build repetition without creating another overwhelming commitment.

  • Weekly focus and facilitation

    Each week strengthens one essential mental fitness capability, supported by expert coaching and practical conversation.

  • Real leadership application

    Participants apply the work to current decisions, difficult conversations, relationships, and performance challenges.

  • Peer accountability

    A cohort creates shared language, normalizes honest reflection, and helps the learning spread into the team.

The arc
