A Leadership Development Company
We deliver leadership growth, tailored to your business that builds on your team’s
innate genius and accelerates your strategy.
Exploring leadership development opportunities for your organization?
Before you invest in leadership development, it’s critical to understand if your organization is truly ready for it.
Our Cultural Readiness Assessment helps uncover whether your environment supports real growth—or if there are unseen barriers holding leaders back.
Use it as a starting point to spark the right conversations, identify gaps, and build a leadership strategy that sticks.
Leaders Impacted... and Growing
Strong Leaders Don’t Just Perform—They Transform.
Their influence ripples across teams, cultures, and entire organizations. They inspire action. Elevate others. Drive results that last.
At HRD*, we’ve been equipping leaders to do exactly that since 1996. We don’t deliver off-the-shelf training—we create customized leadership development experiences that spark growth, unlock potential, and align with your business strategy.
Whether you're nurturing first-time managers or elevating senior executives, our expert facilitators design practical, high-impact journeys tailored to your leaders' strengths and your company’s unique goals.
As an authorized partner of Everything DiSC®, The Five Behaviors® of a Cohesive Team, and The Leadership Challenge®, we go beyond surface-level skills. We help leaders understand themselves, connect with others, and cultivate the kind of culture where people thrive.
Because at HRD*, we believe leadership development isn’t a one-day event—it’s a process. And we measure success not just by growth, but by the real change your leaders create.

"The Leadership Challenge has been one of the most impactful investments we have made in our team’s leadership skills. People managers rave about the principles and how they have significantly changed the way they think about leadership. Whether participants have been leading people for months or decades, there is something for everyone to learn. We’ve also seen it show up in our employee engagement measures, which is also a proof point that this investment in our leaders extends to how we show up to the entire organization. Easily one of the best investments I’ve made in my career in strengthening my leadership team!"

“The collateral that comes with the course is outstanding. The two 360 feedback reports, The Leadership Challenge book, the workbook, and the value exercise are all easy to use, read, and follow. I have shared a lot of the content and learnings as part of my corporate mentoring and coaching responsibilities. All of the content remains close by every day as reference points. My manager has a deeper insight into the things that are important to me and my career aspirations which has fostered a meaningful conversation. My network with my co-workers has grown and I also have new friends as part of this process. It was a hugely valuable, thought-provoking process that I will look back on with fond memories. The learning and growth continue.”

"When I became CEO of my organization I recognized the need to develop leaders within my organization. I read many books and looked at many programs and the program that really appeared to align with my goals and my organization is the Leadership Challenge. The key difference of this program vs. other assessment/360 tools, is that it is behavior based which makes it easier for leaders to understand the feedback they are receiving. It therefore makes it easier to make changes because you are asking for behavioral change which everyone has the ability to do. The 5 practices can also be easily understood and they can also be applied successfully across various levels of leadership in an organization. I highly recommend this program to organizations that are seeking to build a culture of successful leadership."
