Case Study: Dive Inside a Leadership Shift

What makes better³, our cohort experience, different?

It’s about helping leaders communicate what they already know in more intentional, connected, and strategic ways. Together, we build better leaders, better teams, and better business outcomes for the long term.

better³ isn’t an off-the-shelf program, instead it’s built with you, for you. We partner to design and deliver a fully customized leadership journey, branded as your own internal program and grounded in your company values and goals.

Through the combination of 1:1 individual executive coaching, group sessions, collective leadership development workshops and ongoing mentorship, better³ helps leaders navigate succession, lead through complexity, and build confidence.

  • A multi-month journey designed to embed strategic leadership across your organization with structured development, peer support, and sustained accountability.

  • Your leaders don’t join our program - we build and deliver one that’s yours. Fully branded, internally owned, powered by your HR team and integrated into your leadership culture.

  • Ideal for senior managers, directors, and VPs ready to think more strategically, lead across silos, and grow into succession-ready roles.

  • What matters isn’t what we teach, but what your leaders do with it. We anchor the work in your business goals and co-create success metrics from day one.

  • Through deep partnership and in-session observation, we dig up hidden dynamics, highlight opportunities, create a common leadership language and help move your organization forward.

  • “We loved the fact that it was built for purpose. It drew from all kinds of leadership models and competencies, but the structure which for us was a year-long program, the coaching, the in-person sessions, that was built around our culture.”

    Randy Heaps, Chief People and Administrative Officer, ISL

  • “The coaching wasn’t just professional. It shifted how I show up in every part of my life. I’ve never experienced a program that was so personally meaningful while still driving business results.”

    Jenn Bellotto, Human Resources Manager, ISL

  • “We’ve seen people 20–25 years into their careers come out of this with totally new levels of self-awareness. They’re recognizing blind spots, owning their impact, and shifting how they lead. You can feel it. There’s a shift in language, in confidence, in how people lead.”

    Randy Heaps, Chief People and Administrative Officer, ISL

  • “It fundamentally shifted how our teams communicate. There’s more trust, more ownership, and more clarity in how we work. The quality of conversations has changed completely.”

    Jenn Bellotto, Human Resources Manager, ISL

  • “I realized how my speed and always trying to move fast and make decisions was coming across as dismissive. I’ve changed how I listen, how I write, how I show up for people. This program made that shift possible.”
