Why Transformation Matters
Leadership requires a new set of skills.
The biggest factor that determines success of your company is the quality of its leaders. They influence everything.
Yet, 82% of people are promoted to management roles without any leadership training. This oversight leads to disengaged employees, diminished results, and dissatisfied customers.
Empower Them to Lead Unleashed
Leadership requires ever-evolving skills.
High achieving leaders often feel, for every two steps forward, they are pulled back five.
This feeling is leashed leadership.
When you unleash the leaders at your company, you:
Increase Profitability
Unleashed leaders aren’t just motivated; they’re strategic thinkers. They understand the bigger picture and how their actions impact the bottom line.
Improve Employee Engagement
Unleashed leaders empower, not dictate. They create a thriving environment where employees feel valued and heard.
Reduce Turnover
Investing in your leaders shows you value their growth. Unleashed leaders, in turn, develop productive relationships with their teams.
Strengthen Company Culture
Unleashed leaders set the tone for your culture. They build a positive environment that attracts top talent and loyal customers.

Testimonials
“Dr. Garland Vance is by far the best expert I know for helping high achieving leaders get honest with themselves about taking the right steps to Make War against the enemy of “Busyness”!”
“I had multiple people thank me for bringing in AdVance. They told me it was easy to understand, engaging, and most importantly, something they could implement immediately.”
“The most valuable thing I learned is that there are practical steps to implement an overall vision. It provides a way to go back if a result is not met and find a solution.”
“After working with AdVance Leadership, we are now working with a renewed sense of clarity. We don’t feel overwhelmed by constantly doing tasks. We now see the difference that our work makes not only for our firm but also for our clients and community.”
“I am the type of person that can get distracted very easily if things are not engaging enough. You were more than engaging, you made it fun, especially in a group setting where we can learn and to be able to take lessons with us along our Leadership Journey and to be able to project that in helping other people.”
“After a couple of months and taking the tools you taught seriously, I began to see changes (Mostly in me), and that of course, flowed out into my operation.”
