What if you could lead confidently in the face of today's unprecedented uncertainty, change and pressure?

The Confidence Leader

A unique, fully online learning experience designed specifically for time-poor leaders and executives to build and maintain confidence in the face of today's unprecedented challenges.

Being a leader is tougher than ever isn't it?

Everyone looking to you for answers and direction, expectations and demands coming at you from every direction, endless churn, change and pressure, and that's even before we get to your own extremely high standards.

It's an experience where you might feel like:

  • You're only ever a few moments away from failure
  • You can't be seen to fail or screw up
  • You're going round in circles second-guessing the right calls
  • You have to keep inspiring confidence in your team, even if you don't feel confident on the inside
  • The rug might be pulled from under you at any time

No wonder so many leaders are feeling more stressed, more boxed in, with more and more burning out.

I get it, I've been there too...

I totally get it.

I've worked on high-profile projects with sky-high expectations.

I’ve felt my heart-pounding in my chest as I saw the impossible challenge ahead.

I've had sweaty palms when I knew I had to go against the status quo.

I’ve delivered work I thought hit the nail right on the head, but still wondered if everyone would just point and laugh.

And I've been thrown in at the deep-end on impossible-seeming projects, wondering if this time, this would be the one I totally screw up on.

But you know what? I got through.

In fact, I flourished.

See, for over 15 years and more than 30 contracts I ran successful teams in global organisations as a project leader and agile coach for highly complex, multi-departmental 7-figure projects.

Walking through the door, I never knew what I was going to face or what kind of challenge would be thrown at me. All I knew for sure is that I was expected to figure it out fast and get great work done.

Here's why I Created THE CONFIDENT LEADER

Because leadership is fucking hard.


Pardon my French, but it is. Sometimes all you feel is the struggle, pressure and fear, as all those people look at you and expect you to deliver.

Without a core of confidence, there's more thrash, more second-guessing, more stress and more self-doubt.

I've gone through those struggles myself, I've crashed and burned out, and have figured out how I can cut the bullshit that doesn't help and get back to showing up fully and doing great work.

Across all the business owners, leaders and founders I've coached since 2002, I've seen time and time again that confidence is the prerequisite for effective leadership and meaningful success.

That's why I've built this course.
To show you how to lead, confidently.

I've learned what makes the difference...

The difference is trusting that you have what it takes to figure things out, to rise to any challenge, and that you're good enough to deliver, no matter what.

The difference is building and maintaining a solid core of confidence.

The kind of confidence that's with you at every step, that doesn't vanish at the first sign of trouble, and the kind of confidence that you can lean into when you really need it.

I've dug deep and looked closely at the tools, insights and strategies that make a tangible difference, and have built a course that delivers on the promise of being a naturally confident leader and dealing with the myriad fears and anxieties that get in your way.

This is What You'll Learn in the Course...

The Confident Leader is a fully online course, consisting of video lessons and workbooks with practical exercises and strategies, that you can complete at your own pace.

Taking you step-by-step, the course covers everything you need to know (and do) across four main areas:

LAYING A STRONG FOUNDATION

We put in place a strong foundation for what confidence looks like to you, looking at your beliefs and thinking around confidence to see what's helping you and what isn't. This gets us off on the best possible footing, setting out a solid foundation to build from.

THE BIG TRAPS OF LEADERSHIP

We tackle 3 of the biggest traps that get in your way and hold you back as a leader. These deeply damaging habits often creep up on you without you knowing, so we'll cover 3 strategies to deal with each one, to make sure you can avoid them in the future.

STRATEGIES FOR BETTER THINKING

As your experience is a product of your thinking, we'll uncover the things your brain does without you knowing that undermines your capability, confidence and effectiveness, along with simple, smart solutions.

APPLYING NATURAL CONFIDENCE

Clear and concrete ways to connect with the confidence you were born with, maintain it for the long-term, and apply it when you need it most. These 7 distinct and proven tactics make sure you can feel confident no matter what you're facing.

3 Reasons Why The Confident Leader Works...

1

PROVEN STRATEGIES

This isn't stuff I've just made up or conjured from nothing. I've been coaching since 2002 with a focus on confidence since 2007, and the content I've created is based on strategies I've seen work and strategies I employ today with my clients.

2

TANGIBLE AND ACTIONABLE

I've broken everything down into manageable, practical and tangible steps that are easy to follow and implement. That's why we're here—to take action to free you up from feeling like you'll fail and set you up for meaningful success.

3

A FOCUS ON INNER CONFIDENCE

I've seen other courses out there around confidence, but they're focused on outer confidence that's all surface-level and no heart. This, on the other hand, is about building and nurturing your inner confidence in ways that will last.

Here's what's inside...

SETH GODIN

Author & Executive

It's easy to feel confident when we're on a roll, when the cards are going our way, or we're closing sales right and left. This symptomatic confidence, one built on a recent series of successes, isn't particularly difficult to accomplish or useful.


Effective confidence comes from within, it's not the result of external events. The confident salesperson is likely to close more sales. The confident violinist expresses more of the music. The confident leader points us to the places we want (and need) to go.


You succeed because you've chosen to be confident. It's not really useful to require yourself to be successful before you're able to become confident.

Confidence isn’t a nice-to-have or an elective. Not if you want to do great work and lead confidently in the face of today's unprecedented uncertainty, change and pressure.

Confidence is the vehicle for meaningful decisions, meaningful work and meaningful success

Who the course is for...

BUY THIS IF...

  • You're a leader facing unprecedented challenge
  • You're experiencing anxiety, self-doubt and second-guessing, and you're beating yourself up for it
  • You're ready to dig and do some deep work
  • You're naturally curious and a problem-solver, but find it hard to give yourself credit
  • You're happy to commit time to learning and growth

DON'T BUY THIS IF...

  • You want something focused solely on your presentation or public speaking skills
  • You're not willing to put in the work
  • You want to be handed all the answers
  • You're not in a leadership role that comes with high-expectations
  • You only want to *appear* to be confident,  and don't give a damn about inner, natural confidence

Conclusion:

If you're open and curious, want to find tools to help you lead confidently, and aren't afraid of some difficult questions, this is the course for you.


My style is relaxed and approachable, and I have zero interest in appearing like some kind of guru or bamboozling you with self-help clap-trap. I call it like it is, use what works and fully expect you to dig in if you want to see results.

That's what the course helps you with, equipping you with proven strategies so you feel good enough and capable enough, no matter what.

Have you tried leadership courses before?

Leadership courses are ten a penny.

Most are forgettable.

Which is why this isn't a leadership course. It's a means to build and maintain a solid core of confidence to help you advance your leadership and reshape your impact.

I'm not teaching you how to be an effective leader, how to deliver a great presentation, how to run an effective meeting or how to own the room. I have little interest in that stuff. What I am interested in, is your self-confidence.

And in case you're rolling your eyes and thinking, "Steve, it's all that stuff you just said you don't teach that I want", well, I get that too. I get that it's frustrating when you want to be better at what you do. I get that maybe you've tried leadership courses before and found they didn't quite deliver or didn't stick. I get that sometimes you wonder if you'll finally crack this leadership thing.

And here's why I believe firmly, wholly and passionately, that confidence is the missing, central piece that underpins everything else.

It's there when you don't know WHAT TO DO NEXT

Sometimes you have to make a decision and haven't got a clue what to do or what's the right call. At those times it can feel like you're alone, or like everything you've learned has left you.

But with real, natural confidence, all you need to do is trust that you can make a meaningful decision, rather than getting wrapped up in making the "right" decision.

IN THE MIDDLE OF FEAR, IT REASSURES

Fear comes with being human, and the fear of screwing up, letting people down or looking dumb in front of everyone comes with being a leader.

Confidence is a companion who reassures you when you need it, letting you know that whatever happens you'll be okay.

It ALLOWS YOU TO SHOW UP,  FULLY

Sometimes you hold back or hide parts of yourself you think you shouldn't show to others. This compartmentalisation can lead to more self-doubt and second-guessing as you wonder what kind of leader (or person) you really are.

Confidence is the quality that allows you to show up, as you are, knowing you're already whole and good enough.

IT DOESN'T CARE WHAT OTHERS MIGHT THINK

You want people to think well of you, and to think you're great at what you do. That's great. Only, sometimes, you worry too much about what other people think, and sometimes you try too hard to fit in, belong or please others.

With confidence, you know that your value isn't dependent on the opinions of others. You get to pursue great work knowing you're already enough.

It MAKES IMPROVISATION EASIER

As good as you are, you haven't done it all, and you don't have all the answers. And at the end of the day, we're all making it up as we go and doing the best we can.

Confidence is what enables you to move into the unknown, to take a risk, to improvise and see what happens.

Confidence is the secret ingredient. Your secret sauce. It's the quality that allows you to trust yourself, to make meaningful choices when you don't have all the answers, and to deal with whatever comes at you.

If I didn't know how it worked, I'd probably think confidence was some kind of magic.

I loved that I could apply it straight away and see tangible results at work, it's an instant win-win for me and for the company


Loreline Amilhat

My biggest struggle was that the fear of being seen as imperfect, was paralyzing. It was a vicious circle, because the inaction would then make projects/tasks more likely to fail, therefore further feeding the fear of not being good enough.

The course is simple yet highly effective, from the first lesson I found tools and techniques to help me understand where the paralyzing fear was coming from and turn that energy into a productive one. I use these tools everyday. I enjoy putting pen to paper and writing down the answers to the workbooks. Writing and letting the mind make connections to deeper understanding of the concepts brought me the most value.

I can safely say it has changed the course and outcome of some of the biggest work challenges - including projects - that I was facing. It feels like Steve is by your side, cheering you on, which feels fantastic as leaders often feel somewhat isolated. I highly recommend this course to any-one who struggles with confidence, anxiety and fear linked to leadership position.

I loved that I could apply it straight away and see tangible results at work, it's an instant win-win for me and for the company. I had plenty of real life situation and examples to feed my thinking and plenty of opportunities to apply the new tools and techniques.

The content of the course is amazing


Marisol Gomez

Before I took this course, I often felt a lot of anxiety over my ability to deliver the results I knew deep inside I was capable of delivering. About a year ago, I took on a new role in a new industry and was having trouble finding the confidence I needed to lead effectively.

This is a comprehensive, applicable course that will connect you to your inner worth and boost your confidence so you can reach your full potential. The content of the course is amazing as it gets you thinking and identifying things that are constantly affecting your confidence and provides very practical strategies to return your focus on the work that matters and more importantly on letting your passion break through

I think anyone would benefit from this course. Whether you are leading a team already or are at an earlier stage of your career, this course will provide a strong foundation for being an effective leader and the most authentic and confident version of yourself.

Thank you so much for putting this content together and sharing your wisdom 🙂

So if you're ready to start trading fear, pressure and anxiety for more confidence peace of mind, you're in the perfect place.
