What Makes SML Different?
Tired of programs that are little more than videos, slides, and an optional weekly call with 200 other people? You are not alone!
We know what's out there, and we hate it too.
THAT'S WHY WE DO IT DIFFERENTLY!
With decades of real leadership and training experience, we've combined the best training methods with the most important leadership principles to provide this uniquely impactful course that will change how you think, how you show up, and (of course) how you lead!
But don't take our word for it. Here's what previous participants have said (you can find a lot more like these in our Google Reviews!)
The leadership course was top notch! I have a fair amount of leadership experience and learned a ton! Each week, because of the course, I noticed small changes I could make that had a big impact.
~David J. (Entrepreneur)
If you have the chance to take an SML course, either personally or through an employer. Take it. Take the course. You won’t regret it. This course and the pillars it teaches are genuinely impactful both professionally and personally. The facilitators are all 10/10 amazing people who have such a genuine love for what they do. I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to be apart of one of these courses.
Brittany R. (Operations Manager)
Why are people like David and Brittany (and many, many more)
having such a great experience?
Because we have the audacity to challenge the status quo!
The reason all the other courses are nothing but videos and clicking through slides is because they are cheap to make, and the "creators" can make lots of money for doing very little work. They simply wash, rinse, and repeat the same content (videos, weekly check-ins, and email blasts) over and over, calling it a "membership" in a "community".
We're not interested in doing things the easy way or making lots of money for no work. We would much rather make less money and make sure you walk away with real tools that will make you a better leader.
Here's what you can expect from us:
Real Human Interaction
We limit each group to only 15 people so you get personalized attention and engagement, led by a trained facilitator who actually cares about your success.
In fact, they care so much that our team makes themselves available before and after every session for questions and comments
Helpful Content
Each session is curated to provide empowering information on a specific topic. The content is easy to follow in your accompanying workbook, and there are both in-session and out-of-session activities to help bring the concepts to life.
Accountable Engagement
Each session features leadership accountability, along with peer-accountability time during most sessions.
Graduation from this course requires:
- Attendance at 6 of 8 sessions
- Completion of ALL Assignments
- We require cameras to be on and will ask you to participate in each session.
