About Us
Vision
We were founded with one future in mind, a world with more leaders and organizations choosing courage in their moments that matter.
Mission
We supercharge the two most important drivers in every courageous team and organization:
courageous leadership and high performance.
Our Philosophy:
Courageous Leadership turns fear into forward motion
We believe people thrive when their work has meaning—but in today’s high-pressure environments, fear too often overrides clarity, connection, and growth.
We see leadership not as a role, but as a responsibility: to respond to uncertainty with intention, to act with courage, and to create cultures where people can thrive.
When leaders are grounded in their values and willing to face tension head-on, they unlock the conditions that drive performance—trust, resilience, and curiosity.
Founders
Kristen and Mike met at Tesla during a moment that tested their values and transformed their approach to leadership. Like many leaders, they found themselves asking, “What just happened?”—grappling with decisions that made little sense and the silence that followed.
What began as shared frustration became something more: a search for meaning, responsibility, and possibility. In conversation after conversation, one word kept surfacing—agency.
Agency, the ability to make intentional decisions rooted in values, was what was missing in the moments they regretted—and what made all the difference in the moments they were proud of.
After developing thousands of leaders across Tesla, they saw this clearly: when leaders choose courage over fear and act with agency, they don’t just survive uncertainty—they transform it.
Today, every engagement they design helps leaders reclaim their agency, lead with courage, and build high-performing cultures rooted in trust, resilience, and curiosity.
