PEAK Leadership
Transform from a Stressed-out, Overwhelmed Manager into a Confident, Empowered Leader who Effortlessly Achieves Extraordinary Results
– Without giving up on what makes you, YOU
- Are you tired of feeling like you're failing, no matter how hard you work or how many evenings you sacrifice to your laptop while your husband enjoys movie night alone?
- Do you secretly worry that you're not cut out for leadership, even though you've dedicated your career to getting this far?
- Do you feel like you're one "dropped ball" away from running away to Italy for a month of alone time & gelato?
You've been told that success means doing it all, having it all, being it ALL
That having success means being the perfect manager, the perfect mom, the perfect partner, sister, friend, woman…
The perfect everything!!!
But the truth is, that impossible standard is a recipe for burnout, not brilliance.
You’re brilliant, capable, and driven.
But lately, you’ve felt more like a hamster on a wheel than the leader you aspire to be.
The endless to-do lists, the constant firefighting, the nagging feeling that you’re not living up to your full potential…
It’s exhausting.
And the guilt?
It’s a crushing weight you carry everywhere, whispering that you’re failing as a manager, a leader, a woman, a mom…
You're not failing. The system is.
I’ll say that again: You are NOT failing.
You’re simply operating within a system and on a playing field that wasn’t designed for you.
And no amount of working so late that the midnight office cleaner is now your closest “non work” friend, or surreptitiously doing emails from the back of the recital hall while Lily and her class dance the Nutcracker, nor any fancy new “productivity hack” is going to make up for that.
The traditional leadership model expects you to be a master juggler, effortlessly balancing the demands of your team, your superiors, and your own personal life (leaving literally NO TIME for your own needs).
Work-life balance has never seemed harder to maintain!
Perhaps You've...
Sat in a meeting, trying to focus and contribute, but constantly distracted by the image of emails piling up in your inbox, each one a tiny pinging reminder that you will NEVER be done.
Watched your team’s morale slowly decline as the workload increased, despite your best efforts to offer support, praise and encouragement, wondering if you’re truly making a difference.
Fielded a question from the Exec team you didn’t have the answer to, feeling your palms getting a little sweaty and your face reddening as you mumbled something about “looking into it.”
Cuddled your child goodnight (sneaking in after the story books were closed & just before the light went out), promising yourself you’ll leave work early tomorrow, only to find yourself hunched over your laptop at 11 pm, with a sore back & a hollow feeling of guilt in your empty stomach
Lay awake at night, replaying conversations and decisions, second-guessing yourself at every turn, wondering if you’re really cut out for this leadership thing (or if it’s even worth it at all).
WHAT IF you could...
82% of managers have had no formal management training, so it's not your fault if you're only scraping by!
So what CAN you do?
The solution lies in personalised, ongoing coaching & mentoring with a transformative approach that empowers your middle managers to:
- Try new ways of effecting change (instead of asking once and then being frustrated by a lack of action)
- Overcome challenges in the moment (rather than spending hours wavering between choices)
- And develop the leadership style that best suits your individual personality (and your company culture).
Our 6 month group program for women in middle management is designed to do just that.
We’ll work with you continuously, supporting you to implement, learn & transform the way you manage & lead your teams (without the guesswork!)
We’ll equip you with the tools you need to actually change the way you lead & manage, rather than clamming up when a difficult conversation with a direct report arises, and avoiding the issue. We will challenge you, and nudge you out of your comfort zone – because that’s where growth happens.
We approach changing management behaviour in a proven-to-work way, drawing on the latest research in habit building and behaviour change, backed up by a century of data on what works to motivate, engage and support people to be their best at work. And because of that, the impact is huge.
DON’T WASTE ANOTHER PENNY OR MINUTE on ineffective leadership development courses, away days or buying yet another leadership book that will simply gather dust on your nightstand. It’s time to invest in a solution that actually works, because you, your team AND your family deserve you at your best.
You KNOW you've got the potential to be a great leader! but you don't want to give up on your identity, your values, your family or your free time to do it...
You don't have to!
I’m Charlotte – a leadership coach & mentor with 25 years’ experience leading teams across retail, non-profit, and corporate spaces.
Throughout my career, I’ve seen the same pattern…
Incredibly talented, ambitious and intelligent women struggling to lead as themselves, questioning their value & burning themselves out because they haven’t been shown how to manage effectively & authentically.
So – using everything I learned running multi-million pound humanitarian responses in remote war zones, spending 4 years at McKinsey & Company advising governments and multinational CEOs, and scaling a start-up for 300% year-on-year growth, I created the PEAL Leadership Framework.
PEAK Leadership teaches women how to be effective managers, impactful and purposeful leaders without sacrificing their identity, values, family OR free time.
How the PEAK Leadership Framework will unlock your leadership potential
Knowing what you “should” do, being able to reel off all the latest management theories or say the right thing in an interview isn’t going to make you a more effective leader. You have to actually DO what you know you should…
Most management training doesn’t even begin to address the reasons why you haven’t actually implemented any of your theory. They just assume that knowledge = behavior change and leave it at that.
The four pillars of the PEAK Leadership framework close that gap, and are adaptable to any team, any company and any sector.
They support every leader’s individual style with evidence-based behaviors that have been shown to work in studies conducted over the past 100 years.
This proprietary framework forms the basis of the curriculum for the Lead as YOU Programme, and is available nowhere else.
Fully customisable learning paths
Typically, the women in the programme are doing well in some areas, and the learning further enhances their mastery in those pillars. But they’re really struggling in some of the others – which is why the curriculum is fully flexible, allowing you to choose where you focus first, so that you see results right away.
YOU START WHERE YOU NEED THE MOST HELP
- Personal Mastery: Learn to THINK LIKE A LEADER, and develop greater self awareness, compassion & self-confidence so that you can stop feeling overwhelmed, or at the mercy of conflicting priorities and demands
- Effortless Impact: MAXIMIZE YOUR IMPACT, and the impact of each of your team members through strength-based delegation, authentic influencing skills and learning to coach and support your teams through any challenge
- Authentic Influence: Start MOTIVATING & INSPIRING the people in your teams, by setting goals that tap into the intrinsic values of each person and align with the company mission
- Key Connections: Build strong RELATIONSHIPS THAT WORK, so that you're effective, liked and respected, so that you can build positive team cultures (without shying away from difficult conversations)
"I'm so much more productive, more efficient, more patient with my staff."
Having a clear head makes such a difference! The more time I give to myself, the more I can stay on top of things at work. The transformation has been incredible!
