THE TRUST ADVANTAGE LEADERSHIP COHORT

Building High-Trust, High-Impact Teams

Trust is the Foundation of Effective Leadership

Leadership isn’t about authority, it’s about trust. High-trust teams innovate faster, collaborate more effectively and adapt to change with resilience. But trust doesn’t happen by accident. It must be intentionally built, reinforced and restored through the conversations, habits and actions of leaders. 

Trustworthiness is a skill not a trait, and it’s learnable, measurable and actionable. 

It doesn’t take time to build; it takes the right habits. Leaders don’t wait for trust to grow, they create it. And when trust is broken, they restore it quickly with deliberate action.

How might one go about becoming the most trusted leader in every room?

Welcome to The Trust Advantage Leadership Cohort, a high-impact leadership accelerator designed to help high-performing professionals build the mindsets, conversation skills and habits needed to deepen relationships, inspire action and create lasting impact.

  • Navigate change and uncertainty while maintaining trust

  • Create cultures of accountability and high performance that inspire action

  • Guide high-value conversations that move teams and organizations into the future

Workshops

Monthly 2-Hour Sessions

Each month, we’ll explore one of the 12 core habits of high-trust leaders, from empathic listening to making responsible promises. But this isn’t passive learning, we’ll practice new leadership conversations, build muscle memory and start turning knowledge into lasting habits.

What to Expect:

You’ll walk away with a fresh mindset, new tools and leadership habits to apply immediately. This is where trust-building begins… in your everyday conversations.

  • Bi-Monthly 1-Hour Sessions 

    We all know that repetition is the genesis of mastery. In these small-group practice sessions, we’ll go deeper, have opportunities to get more practice in and introduce expert-level moves that bring each habit to life in real-world leadership moments.


    Dates:

    • February 2

    • April 13

    What to Expect:

    You’ll share how you’ve been applying what you’ve learned, get honest, supportive feedback and walk away with a clearer path forward. These are your moments to pause, focus and grow.

  • Building trust as a leader is personal. That’s why each participant receives four private coaching sessions to reflect, refine, and get unstuck. With the guidance of your coach, you’ll bring intention to your development and accelerate your impact.

  • You will be invited to our Trust Advantage Leadership Cohort Slack channel, where you will be offered weekly thought exercises and support from your fellow cohort members.

Our courses are designed to help leaders build and sustain trust in the workplace through practical, repeatable habits.

  • Lead with confidence by fostering trust through transparency, consistency and accountability. Strong trust creates stronger teams, higher engagement and lasting influence.

  • High-trust leaders provide clarity and stability, even and especially in times of change and ambiguity. Build alignment and inspire action when the future is uncertain.

  • Leaders set the tone for open, productive conversations. When trust is high, teams feel safe to innovate, share ideas and take risks.

  • The best leaders don’t just communicate, they create progress through transformative conversations. Master the skills to engage, influence and guide teams toward meaningful outcomes.

  • Trust isn’t just about keeping promises, it’s about knowing how to repair trust when it’s broken. Leaders who master trust recovery turn challenges into deeper, more resilient relationships.

  • Trust isn’t a one-time achievement; it’s a practice. High-trust leaders develop daily habits that reinforce credibility, build authentic connections and create lasting impact.
