HRD* is a global Leadership Development Company, and our mission is to equip leaders to be the best of themselves and to get the best of the people they serve.
We are Influencers of Change + Leadership Growth Facilitators
Training is for dogs. GROWTH is for leaders. At HRD*, we are on a mission to improve the world, one leader at a time. We believe that the improvement of a leader comes from within, through personal development from experiencing a growth journey to change, rather than skills to be obtained through training courses. Every single leader comes to your business with their own past experiences, values, fears, and desires. To improve their mindset, to want to change, to grow, and to be the best leader they can be, they must be supported and understood as an individual. This is where we differ from other leadership training and development companies.
We are not trainers. We are change influencers.
Our Development is Evidence-Based:
- 93% of participants agree or strongly agree that their behaviors have changed as a result of our development process.
- 88% of participants show measurable improvement in at least one of their focus areas.
- Cohorts consistently achieve 100% improvement across all practice areas of The Leadership Challenge®.
- Participants in Manager Essentials™ report an average 44% increase in leadership confidence and competence.
We are Strategic Designers
At HRD*, we know that every client need is different and that no leader is the same, so we collaborate with you to design and facilitate inspiring and practical leadership growth experiences that are tailored to strengthen your leaders and elevate your business strategy.
Each of our facilitators and coaches brings a strength or certification in the areas of executive coaching, leadership development and facilitation, succession planning, strategic planning, and diversity, equity, and inclusion in the workplace.
Our proven leadership growth experiences, or Signature Solutions, are tailored to your overall team, the leaders on your team, and your goals. We believe in the highest quality service; therefore, every experience is measured at various points for success using methods such as:
- Pre- and post-assessments measuring group and individual progress in focus areas
- Post-session survey data
- Participant retention rates
- Promotability and promotion outcomes
- Team assessments (pre- and post-program data)
- Engagement and pulse survey data
We are Lesson Curators
Great leadership isn’t learned through lectures—it’s experienced. We design interactive, thought-provoking workshops that engage leaders at every level, turning insights into action. Every session we create is tailored to inspire, challenge, and equip participants with the skills they need to lead with confidence.
But real learning only happens in a space where people feel safe to speak, experiment, and grow. That’s why we cultivate an atmosphere of psychological safety, ensuring that every participant can engage fully, take risks, and discover new perspectives without fear of judgment.
Our workshops don’t just deliver content — they spark transformation.
We are Keynote Speakers
Our leadership mission expands throughout our leader community, and so, we share our expertise by connecting with as many leaders as we can. Our speakers have inspired and motivated employers and organizations around the world.
At the heart of every meaningful leadership transformation is empowerment. That’s why our speaking engagements focus on topics that equip and energize every leader on your team to grow with purpose and confidence.
We are Trusted—and It Shows
We are proud to have earned a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 95+, a reflection of the deep trust and strong relationships we build with our clients and their leaders. In an industry where the average NPS hovers around 40–50, our score stands out—and speaks volumes.
This level of satisfaction doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of our intentional, personalized approach to leadership development, our commitment to real outcomes, and our belief that growth happens through meaningful connection.
When organizations choose HRD*, they’re not checking a box for just "training"—they’re investing in experiences that spark change and build confidence from the inside out. And they’re seeing real results they want to share.
