The challenges you face as a leader in today’s world are unprecedented. My extensive coaching and advisory experience, from the frontline to the C-suite, has prepared me to support you in successfully leading yourself and others through those challenges.
Today’s leaders can no longer depend solely on positional authority. They need to be able to coach and mentor those they are leading. The research is clear. Leaders who bring a coach approach into their conversations are able to significantly improve engagement, performance, retention, and morale.

Building and Sustaining Trust
Trust is at the core of every successful relationship. I work with Judith E. Glaser’s neuroscience-based model for building and sustaining trust (Transparency, Relationship, Understanding, Shared Success, and Truth-Telling).
03.
Living Your Values
Values are no more than words unless they are lived every day. For this to happen, people must have a clear, shared understanding of their meaning and take specific actions in their execution.
04.
Inclusive Leadership
Intergenerational differences. Cultural differences. Introverts and Extraverts. “Outside the box” vs. “follow the rules.” Inclusive leaders value the differences across their teams and know how to leverage them for success.

The Future of Work
COVID-19. The Great Resignation. Artificial Intelligence. The disruptions to the workforce and the workplace are unprecedented. Being able to lead through this uncertainty requires both vision and practicality.
06.
Culture Change
Culture lives inside the actions and minds of the workforce. This makes culture change the most difficult change a leader will face. It is often also the most critical. Coaching is a proven resource for successful culture change.

Work-Life Blending
Maintaining a dynamic blend of workplace demands and life outside of work is important for you as a leader as well as for those you lead. Successful work-life blending is key to avoiding burnout.

Endless Change
Change, from minor to transformational, continues to accelerate. Leading through endless change requires an understanding of the human response to change as well as the universal change journey.
I’m Brian Gorman. I help leaders create and live into the future they want.
Change is today’s workplace constant. COVID-19, the Great Resignation, and AI have been catalysts for some of the most significant disruptions in generations. The foundation of my professional career is in organizational change management. One of the most important lessons of change management is that all change is personal. Organizations don’t change; people do.
Today, I bring the principles of organizational change management and adult learning, a deep understanding of the psychology and neuroscience of change, and expertise in curriculum development to my leadership coaching and advisory services. Working with individuals, groups, and teams, I support leaders as they live into their vision for the future and guide others to follow.
Whether your focus is on the leader you want to become or the vision you want your organization to achieve, I am prepared to support and guide you into the future.
