“I’ve taken dozens of courses. Most are like espresso. They give you a quick hit and then everything fades. Great Traits isn’t just a course. It becomes a way of life.”

“It gave me permission to really step into my role as a leader.”

“As a seasoned learning and performance specialist and graduate of Great Traits’ Corporate Champions program, I thought I was doing the Great Traits team a favour by reviewing The Leader’s Edge. As it turns out, they did me the favour. This book cut through clutter and refocused my attention on the leadership traits that matter in today’s complex, ever-shifting world of work. With clear explanations, lived examples and practical tools, it’s a refreshingly succinct and relatable guide – an essential resource for emerging, new, and experienced leaders alike.”

“We used the Create Synergy framework to restructure our department, placing the right people in the right spots. Completing the team chart helped us identify each person’s unique “X-Factor” — their strengths, motivations, and how they thrive best. It brought clarity, harmony, and new energy to how we worked together.”

“I got promoted at the start of January. I got a 14% raise and loads of motivation to keep going. Thank you for what you do and how you have helped me.”

“What sets The Leader’s Edge apart is its clear commitment to action. Rather than prescribing what a “good leader” should be, it empowers readers to discover their own leadership identity, one trait, one skill, and one action at a time.”

“As an emerging leader, this program was incredibly helpful. It helped me hone my skills.”

“The Leader’s Edge is brilliantly written encompassing the fundamental traits to be a successful leader at home, in business or in sport. It’s a must read if you are striving to be better, and make those around you flourish.”

“It was uncanny. Each week the program gave me exactly what I needed to do next with my team. It was like you designed the program just for me.”

“It increased my self-awareness, and increased my self-confidence.”

“For me and my entire leadership team this program was the sharpening of the saw. It was so useful, I’m thinking of putting our people through it a second time.”

“Great Traits has been transformative, delivering a learning experience that persists long after the course is over. Week after week, the traits take root and truly become a way of being, both at work and in life.”

“Great Traits is the best leadership training I’ve been involved with. It was practical and easy to digest, all the while providing great tools to add discipline in becoming a great leader and also a great human.”

“We use the program as a retention tool for our high potential leaders. We invest in them early in their career because they use the essential skills for years to come. It’s a great ROI.”
