“We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”  -- Albert Einstein

​

 Imprint Leadership Partners uses evidence-based cognitive approaches to help our clients modify habituated limiting behaviors and thinking patterns. We do this by empowering them to find their current growth edge and make informed choices about how they want to adapt to meet the leadership needs of their organizations, communities and lives.

It is not our job to solve our clients' problems. We are here to help them develop their capacity to solve their own problems, which requires a change in the way they operate. By becoming the author of their own future and behaving consistently with their vision, our clients become role models for others. As they take responsibility for their development, they begin to create a culture of learning that encourages others to do the same.

​

To prepare clients to navigate the increasingly complex world in which we live, we must help them learn, unlearn, and relearn how they make sense of the world. As such, we:

• Create an environment in which our clients feel safe to grow, find their own answers, and create their own agenda

• Utilize a coaching framework to help them stay committed to the work to be done, yet foster the freedom to grow on their terms

• Turn up the “heat” just enough to engage them in productive dialogue, but not enough to lose trust

• Help them identify and disrupt their 'immunity to change' and define action plans to generate better results

• Foster self-awareness through direct communication, active listening and reflection of what is and is not being said

• Create structures of accountability so the work they do during coaching is sustainable
