Lead Yourself First,
Then Lead Your Team
S.P.R.I.N.T. H.U.R.D.L.E.S. is the Self & Team Leadership Framework built for new and emerging leaders: know and manage yourself, then earn the trust and results that come from leading a team well.
“You can't lead others further than you've led yourself.”

Program Delivery Model
Both Leaders Unleashed programs are delivered using Performastery's small-cohort development model, combining facilitated learning with practical workplace application, behavioural insight and individual coaching.
The maximum cohort size is intentional, and a core part of the Leaders Unleashed methodology. It creates an environment where participants can contribute openly, explore real leadership challenges, learn from the experiences of others, and receive more personalised support than a large-scale webinar or traditional training environment allows.
A 90-minute live online group coaching session, every week
Weekly activities and course materials via the online portal
