THE EXECUTIVE TRAINING FOR AUTHENTIC INFLUENCE

Living Influence Leadership is for CEOs, business owners and senior executives who are followers of Christ.

Our goal is for you to maximize your professional and personal influence — an influence grounded in trust, authenticity — and the freedom to lead from your personal significance.

 

 

We offer two programs, the Living Influence Leadership 2-Day Seminar and the Living Influence Leadership 12-month Experience.

Scott Boyd

For more than 20 years, Scott has built a thriving business by shaping a culture of trust, grace, and empowered leadership.

Bill Thrall

For more than 40 years, Bill has helped senior executives around the world lead from identity, authenticity, and grace.

Waldemar Kohl

For more than 25 years, Waldemar has worked with executives to create healthy, and high-performing organizations.

Every leader has experienced the tension between what they do and who they are. We’ve all seen how isolation, and self-protection erode culture and limit results.

Great leadership isn’t simply about strategy, execution, or charisma. It’s about presence, the ability to bring your full significance into every relationship and decision.

“God gives grace to the humble. Humble yourselves . . . that He may exalt you.”

1 Peter 5:5

*Adapted from illustrations in the book "The Ascent of a Leader" by Bill Thrall, Bruce McNicol and Ken McElrath

 

When leaders live authentically, they don’t just manage outcomes, they shape culture. By releasing the potential of others. They lead with living influence.

This two-day experience will challenge you to:

  • Integrate who you are with how you lead.
  • Transform the impact of your leadership.

When leaders live and lead from the strength of their God-given identity - their significance - they create environments where others can do the same.  Teams flourish, accountability strengthens, innovation accelerates, and the business delivers results. 

This seminar will help you bridge the gap between influence as a concept and living influence as a relational reality, because of grace.

 Join us for two days that will inspire how you think, lead, and live your influence.

Cohort members are assigned a coach for continued engagement between sessions.

  2. I am a leader whose trust in God creates , through me, an invitation for others to trust me. 
  3. I am a leader who courageously processes my own life issues and chooses to live unhidden — building relationships marked by authenticity, grace, and trust.
  4. I am a leader who loves others by seeing and meeting their real needs — and has the humility to let others do the same for me.
  5. I am a leader who experiences the freedom to fully live out my God-given gifts, passions, and vision — leading with joy, clarity, and purpose.
  6. I am a leader who embraces the contributions of others as indispensable to my own growth and influence.
  7. I am a leader capable of guiding teams into environments of grace, where everyone is known and can flourish and grow.
  8. I am a leader living into the hope of experiencing the life I have always dreamed of.
  9. I am a leader deeply at peace with myself.
  10. I am a leader others want to follow.
  11. I am a leader who will finish well.
