“Alice has been a great coach to work with one on one.

Life-changing Experience
Taking on the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development program through the coaching of Dr. Melodye Hilton was and is an ongoing life-changing experience. Following the process of the program along with Dr. Hilton’s guidance was simple in practice yet profound in impact. Through the personalized VQ report, I was able to see the areas of life that are under-serving, over-serving (biases), and best-serving (assets) my life and my world.

Through the personalized VQ report, I was able to see the areas of life that are under-serving, over-serving (biases), and best-serving (assets) my life and my world.
Through conscious choice and action, I was able to begin living a more value-genic life. Before I knew it, things I had struggled with and felt disconnects on for years were suddenly non-issues as I began to function in a higher and clearer way of thinking and living while also presenting a more valuing and nurturing presence to those around me. I highly recommend this powerful tool to anyone who wishes to live a better, more authentic, more fulfilling, and more impactful life!

Starting with One Light Ahead, I felt lost. My business required a direct sales approach, and the struggle with the developing relationships required within this model was real. Building relationships that communicated care to clients was difficult for me. In the initial meeting, it was apparent Coach April could uncover the secrets I was looking for. My initial experience was enlightening. Being able to uncover habits that were holding me back was empowering. Through my coaching sessions, I was...
Starting with One Light Ahead, I felt lost. My business required a direct sales approach, and the struggle with the developing relationships required within this model was real. Building relationships that communicated care to clients was difficult for me. In the initial meeting, it was apparent Coach April could uncover the secrets I was looking for. My initial experience was enlightening. Being able to uncover habits that were holding me back was empowering. Through my coaching sessions, I was able to learn how to take corrective action that replaced my unproductive habits with efficient ones. I have seen a major shift in my focus away from a life that I found to be very stressful. As I accepted my past and the experiences I lived through. I am now experiencing a life that is more fulfilling and complete.

I signed up for the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program with the aim of developing a relationship model for our company.

Through this practice, I became increasingly centered, driven, and composed, experiencing far less stress than before. Best of all, because our entire C-suite went through the program, we began to understand each other’s assets and how we complement each other in various tasks, and practice novel strategies and tactics in unison. It has been a challenging journey, but it has changed my perspective on life and equipped me with invaluable tools. I recommend this program to those who perceive barriers in their progress, who feel underestimated, or who are ready to take their professional growth to the next level.

The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program was a deeply transformative and personal experience. The small group of cohort participants created an environment that was both open and supportive, empowering me to be honest and fully engaged in my learning journey. This was a rare opportunity in my professional experience. Going into the program, my goal was to define a non-grading role in the DODC Cohort Program, focusing on performance and impact.

The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program was a deeply transformative and personal experience. The small group of cohort participants created an environment that was both open and supportive, empowering me to be honest and fully engaged in my learning journey. This was a rare opportunity in my professional experience. Going into the program, my goal was to define a non-grading role in the DODC Cohort Program, focusing on performance and impact. I knew I needed to become more direct and confident, rather than self-effacing. Working with my coach, Peter Demarest, the program’s Central Question became integral to my practice, helping me avoid unproductive patterns. Embracing my biases and realizing that caring about and empowering others is a powerful strength significantly boosted my confidence and authenticity. Participating in this unique, diverse group led by Peter will be a memorable experience. I highly recommend this program to anyone curious about personal growth and supporting others in their development journey. The tools provided are invaluable, offering just a taste of life’s work that inspires a desire for more. Peter’s rare combination of expertise and humility makes this program exceptional. My aspiration is to further develop my axiology skills and actively contribute to this growing community.

I am tremendously grateful for my experience in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. Initially, I enrolled with the intention of increasing my capacity. I soon found out that I needed to shift my tendencies from passive and impatient to being assertive and present.

I am tremendously grateful for my experience in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. Initially, I enrolled with the intention of increasing my capacity. I soon found out that I needed to shift my tendencies from passive and impatient to being assertive and present. All of this was made possible with the thoughtful guidance of my coach, Michael Gidlewski. Through this journey, I was able to identify self-limiting beliefs, which had been heavily influenced by recurrent narratives I had unknowingly built up in my story. The transformative part was understanding and changing these narratives, which had a profound impact on my personal growth. My standout feature from the program would have to be the practical, user-friendly tools provided, which I found to be easily applicable to all facets of both my personal and professional life. Reflecting on my journey through this program, it’s fair to say that it has allowed me to redefine my sense of value and purpose effectively. I would highly recommend the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program to anyone who may feel stuck in a rut and is looking for the perfect opportunity to level up their life.

“I have entrusted the development of my organizations’ leaders to Dr. Melodye Hilton for more than 17 years because of her unique perspective, profound insights, and authentic approach. Her core belief that every person carries an innate, unchanging contribution permeates her whole approach, earning the trust of my leaders who want to receive more. She equips our leaders with a better understanding of who they are, how to engage their best ways of thinking, and how to optimize their leadership through heightened self-awareness and intentional self-leadership. Her science-based tools are insightful and amazingly accurate, creating an objective and personalized foundation from which each individual develops. Beyond investing in them as leaders, she deeply cares for them as people. She draws out their gifts through discernment and perspective, empowering greater contribution to customers and teams. She inspires people to be better and do better. I’ve known Dr. Melodye for almost two decades, and she lives what she teaches, filling her content with personal experiences and relevant applications. I’m amazed at how well she motivates us to be more intentional, think higher, and aim for mutual benefit. Our leaders are increasingly blessed with each successive training or coaching encounter with Dr. Melodye, and our teams are forever inspired and activated for higher levels of personal and corporate success.”

I discovered that I have real assets within me
This program taught me the power of asking the right questions — not just to myself, but with my team. We live in a world shaped by the stories we tell ourselves. They influence how we see reality, how we relate to others, and where we’re going. Through this program, I discovered that I have real assets within me — and that when we shift our mindset and rewrite our story, anything is possible.

I recently participated in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. My endeavor in the program was guided by my goal to become more focused and efficient. I realised that to achieve this, I first needed to shed some of my prior habits. Working with my coach, Michael Gidlewski, I was able to turn these aspirations into tangible progress swiftly. This has imbued me with a better sense of focus on creating long-term value and instilled in me the realization that every decision I make and every action I take has value. Along with this newfound understanding, I’ve also learnt to broaden my perspective and leverage my resources better. The program’s well-designed worksheets have been excellent helpers in this transformative journey. They serve not only as great reminders but also effective tools to build good habits. This program merits my highest recommendation. Anyone and everyone can greatly benefit from it, particularly those who may be struggling to find value in their daily lives. Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program is truly an irreplaceable journey of growth and development.

I embarked on the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program with the intention of honing my leadership skills, personally and professionally to ensure I maximize the value proposition given to and derived from my department as a result of my leadership. Revamping my perfectionist nature and eliminating hesitation and indecisiveness was challenging; these aspects of my way of doing things had oftentimes prevented me from getting the best net value from a situation. The transition though difficult showed new ways of thinking and approaching matters that proved to be quite rewarding steps on my journey towards improvement. My coach, Debbie Joseph-Caddle, definitely boosted my sense of confidence in my ability , which in turn allowed me to be more willing to exercise my decision-making in the space. She emphasized the importance of decision-making and accepting occasional failures as being part of the learning process. Under her guidance, I developed the ability to test my ideas and take decisions with confidence, further enhancing my leadership skills. A key takeaway from her tutelage was this: Leadership isn’t about doing everything myself but ensuring things get done, either through my own work or through efficient delegation. One of the more unexpected but welcomed aspects of the program turned out to be having Debbie as a sounding board as well as access to the insightful tools for rethinking problem-solving and leadership practices that the program provides. Reflecting on my journey throughout this program, I would describe it as an enlightening, confidence-boosting experience that provided me with constructive feedback in a secure environment and one that transformed my thought processes. I highly recommend the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program to anyone requiring guidance in enhancing their leadership skills. The program facilitators are understanding, knowledgeable, compassionate, deliberate, engaging, flexible and professional. It’s a highly recommended program that promises to bring about positive change.
