  • The Mission
  • We live in turbulent times. Institutions are strained, trust is eroding, and artificial intelligence is reshaping how organizations work faster than most leaders are being prepared to guide it. Moments like this are not decided by technology. They are decided by leadership.
  • We are the home of the
  • Transformational Leadership Framework
  • - twelve practices across the four domains where leadership lives:
  • Leading the Self
  • (Purpose, Integrity, Accountability),
  • Leading the Team
  • (Dignity, Empathy, Inclusion),
  • Leading the Organization
  • (Assets, Innovation, Prosperity), and
  • Leading the Community
  • (Humility, Peace, Democracy). Our mission is to place this framework in front of leaders at every level, in every sector, around the world - through keynotes, books, and leadership programs - and to build a legacy of leadership that outlives us.
  • That mission is urgent, and it does not amplify itself. This role exists to carry it.
  • Who You Will Support
  • You will report directly to our founder:
  • a U.S.-based, globally recognized leader
  • - a published author and the creator of the Transformational Leadership Framework, with more than 25 years of leadership
  • and a second book on leadership in the age of AI in development. Your work keeps his speaking calendar full and the movement's audience growing, so he can focus on what only he can do: writing, teaching, and delivering keynotes.
  • This is a process-driven role with a clear monthly rhythm. The workflow is fully mapped - you will run and continuously improve a documented system, not guess your way through vague instructions.
  • Key
  • supporting an author, keynote speaker, consultancy, or leadership development organization.
  • ● Basic design skills (e.g., Canva) for LinkedIn graphics and slides.
  • What You Will Be Part Of
  • ●
  • A movement, not just a job:
  • every booking you secure places the Transformational Leadership Framework in front of another audience navigating turbulent times.
  • ●
  • Direct mentorship:
  • you report straight to the founder — no layers in between — and learn transformational leadership from the person who wrote the framework.
  • ●
  • A documented system:
  • a repeatable monthly workflow with clear targets, so you always know what success looks like.
  • ●
  • Real growth:
  • as bookings and audience grow, this role grows with them into a revenue operations leadership position.
