The Need for Engaging Leaders
Organizations need leaders who can effectively motivate and empower their teams.
Coaching techniques – such as active listening, goal setting, problem solving, and empowering questions – have proven to be the key traits of effective leaders in today’s world.
Mastering these skills requires adopting new practices that can only develop through meaningful experiences.
That’s where Leader Street comes in.
What We Do
We equip professionals with leadership coaching techniques through a unique combination of training and real-life application of these skills.
Through training and social impact, participants master the skills to guide, inspire, and engage those around them.
Once the methods are learned, they will use their new coaching abilities to help rescued African street youth overcome limiting beliefs, solve problems, set goals and inspire action.
It’s an innovative approach to leadership development that profoundly transforms professionals.
They return to their organizations with greater empathy, confidence, as well as more meaning and purpose in their roles.
