Who We Are

Cultivating Leadership is an unconventional global collective of skilled facilitators, coaches, and conveners dedicated to helping leaders and organizations thrive in complexity. As vanguards of the principles of adult development and systems thinking, we co-design leadership solutions with our clients—including custom programs, coaching, and organizational initiatives—that enable immediate growth and sustained development.

With roots in Paekākāriki, Aotearoa New Zealand, we have grown into a worldwide network spanning Australasia, Europe, North America, the Middle East and South Asia. We honor Tangata Whenua (People of the Land) of our birthplace and the many lands where we work. We admire the human condition and strive to meet our fellow humans with generosity, curiosity, lightness, and compassion.

We recognize that the complexity and change leaders face today are unprecedented, and our human systems—both organizational and personal—are not naturally equipped to navigate them. That’s why we help leaders intentionally evolve, considering their minds, hearts, and bodies as interconnected systems. We guide organizations to create cultures and practices that foster continual growth and readiness for an uncertain future, not by offering prescriptive answers, but by helping clients define and live out their own purposes.

Through our work, we aim to shape a more just, diverse, flourishing, and sustainable planet, empowering leaders with practical tools to grow as humans and inspire meaningful change.
