Leading for Organizational Health

A Human-Centered Leadership Intensive

Organizational health is not an abstract ideal. It is the lived experience of how people think, relate, act, and achieve together.

When leaders cultivate clarity, trust, and aligned action, they create environments where people thrive and organizations sustain momentum through complexity and change.

Leading for Organizational Health (LOH) is Leverage to Lead’s advanced leadership development program designed for leaders who want to create resilient, human-centered organizations. LOH offers a structured, experiential path to developing the internal clarity, relational depth, and aligned execution that organizational health requires.

This program builds directly on the foundations of ANCHOR, our immersive experience in Human-Centered Practices. While ANCHOR strengthens leaders’ inner awareness and relational capacity, LOH expands their ability to apply those insights across systems, teams, and organizational cultures.

 

The 50/30/20 Leadership Model

This model helps leaders shift from reactive doing toward intentional leadership that is clear, relational, and grounded in purpose.

Organizational health requires a leader who knows how to balance thinking, relating, and doing. We teach leaders to structure their time, attention, and energy around a model that aligns with how real transformation occurs.

50% Critical Thinking

Leaders develop the capacity for clarity

The ability to interpret complexity, question assumptions, discern patterns alongside exceptions, and make grounded, values-aligned decisions. This includes reflective judgment, ethical reasoning, strategic focus, and sensemaking.

30% Relational Intelligence

Leaders strengthen the capacity for connection

The ability to build trust, communicate transparently, navigate conflict, and foster belonging. These skills support dynamic partnerships, collaboration, accountability, and shared understanding.

20% Action

Leaders practice purposeful execution

The demonstrated capacity to translate insight into aligned behaviors, setting direction, establishing rhythms of accountability, and modeling the practices that sustain organizational health.

What past participants are saying about Leading for Organizational Health:

“I signed up for Leading for Organizational Health hoping to clarify my leadership style. What I didn’t realize at the time was that I also needed to reground myself—to reconnect with what makes me a good leader in the first place.”


“This program changed how I show up in meetings, how I approach my team, and how I think about what we owe our people as leaders. And I’m still returning to the workbooks—it’s the kind of learning that keeps deepening over time.”
