Creating future-proof organizations through cultures of trust and purpose

The Trust Circle Journey nurtures trust and purpose in organizations: Have the conversations that truly matter, solve real world problems, and build a high-performing culture. 

Trusted by more than 2,000 leaders worldwide

A conscious leadership transformation with trust and purpose at its core.

Leadership transformations must go beyond the surface level focus of increasing cognitive IQ: skills, knowledge, and processes. Instead, it must transcend to also include EQ (empathy, trust, purpose) and CQ (greater collective consciousness). These additional states of leadership and consciousness are essential to meet the multi-layered challenges of today. Once this new state of conscious leadership is earned, the natural outcome is a transformation of culture among those you are leading.

What does the Trust Circle Leadership Program look like?

Primary goal

Undergo a conscious leadership transformation to create a new organizational culture with trust and purpose at its core.

Expected outcomes

Better fulfill obligations to all stakeholders (shareholders, people, and society) through a better performing and conscious organization.

Core method

Leadership transformation based not only on cognitive intelligence (IQ) but also empathy (EQ), and consciousness (CQ). A continuous, facilitated transformation guided by the Conversational Fluency™ methodology.

How it works

Assessments are first taken to generate awareness of each team member’s conscious leadership state. Then regular conversations, or Trust Circles™, are facilitated between team members with the Conversational Fluency™ methodology. This process enables the missing and difficult conversations that are needed to grow conscious leadership, nurture trust, and uncover purpose within organizations.

What will you and your team experience?

Three core elements of our carefully designed process make the difference.

Step 1

The Conscious States of Leadership CSLP™ Assessment

The starting point of your journey is the Conscious States of Leadership Profile™ (CSLP). The CSLP is a self-assessment tool designed to uncover where you and your team fit regarding your conscious leadership states. The profiles provide insight into the development needs of each team member. It helps organizations start a journey towards trust and purpose through understanding multiple perspectives and approaches to life.

Step 2

The Trust Circles™ Master Class

Our Conversational Fluency™ methodology cultivates conscious leadership and is the core mechanism of building a high-performing culture. The 8-week Trust Circle Master Class acts as an onboarding phase for Conversational Fluency™. During this process, your team will gain new tools and methods for reflection and growth, in addition to learning the fundamentals of our methodology.

Step 3

The Trust Circle™ Journey

The Trust Circle™ is a tool that enables conversations that transcend differences, individual and business priorities, and other barriers to connection. Through expert facilitation, a safe psychological place, and awareness of each team member’s conscious states of leadership, these conversations can uncover insights, transform thinking, and reach a level of depth that wouldn’t occur in normal business settings. The journey is modular and can last from a minimum of 6 months up to 24 months.
