My name is CJ Hammond. Going into the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program, I wanted to achieve a greater sense of peace in my career, I needed to make myself less judgmental, fearful, and disorganized. Working with my coach, Jordan White, I quickly realized how I could be more compassionate, empowered, and focused. As a result, I immediately noticed that the internal questions I asked myself were different, therefore changing my actions. My favorite thing about the program was the insight I gained into my biases and how they can hinder me from operating from an A-game mindset. I would liken the experience to a personal trainer for your brain. Helping to sharpen my thinking abilities. I highly recommend this program for anyone looking to re-define their lives by making better daily decisions. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working through my cognitive biases as well as learning my assets. Both are vitally important to understand when making choices in my life to create the most value.

When I initially joined the program, my objective was to improve the work culture at my company.

My name is Briel Speer, and my journey with the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program has been incredibly impactful. When I initially joined the program, my objective was to improve the work culture at my company. However, I quickly recognized certain personal tendencies of being too accommodating, easily distracted, and excessively risk-averse, which were impediments to my success. Fortunately, my coach, Jordan White, was phenomenally supportive and efficiently helped me develop a more authentic, assertive, and courageous leadership style. The transformation has been vast and it has given me new insights about my thought processes and their influences on both my professional and personal interactions.
Reflecting upon my journey, the standout aspects have been my interactions with Jordan, whose kindness, patience, and partnership were invigorating, and the toolkit provided by the program, which was instrumental in guiding me through the learning curve. My experience can best be summarized as enlightening and deeply introspective, with a powerful emphasis on recognizing and celebrating personal growth.
The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program has been an invaluable asset in not just refining my decision-making and fostering an open-minded approach, but also in re-discovering my value within my professional sphere. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone striving to unlock their potential and elevate their leadership skills.

I have seen a dramatic increase in my effectiveness as a coach since I started using the VQ Profile and the Self-Leadership Development Program. My clients are getting “unstuck” more quickly, and we are able to go deeper in our conversations more efficiently than ever before. Clients move more directly toward their goals and dreams, maximizing their assets and making their biases irrelevant. Of course, the real beauty is that they have a process that they can use forever, even after we are no long...

Going into this program, in order to achieve my goal of being more calm and collected at work, I discovered that I needed to become less negative, reactive, and assumptive. Working with my coach, Jordan White, I was quickly able to become more empathetic, thoughtful, and considerate. As a result, I have found the ability to take a minute to process my thoughts before reacting or offering a solution. My favorite thing about the program is learning about my faults and shortcomings and how to overc...

My name is Michael Allen. I enrolled in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program with the aim of becoming a professional coach. As I embarked on this journey, my coach, April Ballestero, quickly illuminated some hindrances I needed to overcome – primarily my tendency to get distracted, be argumentative, and act without intention. With her guidance and the program’s robust framework, I was able to transform these weaknesses into strengths, becoming distinctly more focused, intentional, and empathetic. The results were not only immediate but also significant. I gained clarity in purpose, direction, and goals. Moreover, I saw a vast improvement in my marriage due to enhanced communication and understanding. One of the standout features of this program is the A&B game worksheet, a tool that encapsulates the effectiveness and speed of result delivery, cohesive with the course. In essence, my experience with this program has been nothing short of life-changing. It has added a new dimension to my life – a profound level of personal and professional development that I have never experienced before. It’s worth every penny, and for anyone looking to elevate their life’s purpose, goals, and relationships, particularly in marriage, this is a program I cannot recommend enough. The results truly work!

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 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.”

The science of neuro-axiology, and the practice of Valuegenic Self-Leadership, could be a game-changer for OD practice on numerous levels. The neuro-axiological process goes beyond self-awareness, self-understanding, presencing, and radical acceptance, driving a proactive, purposive, and measurable personal transformation.

I’m incredibly happy to endorse the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. My primary goal for entering this program was to enhance my relationship with the people around me – to show them that I deeply cared for them and was committed to their success through actively engaging in our exchanges and exhibiting empathy. I understood that to achieve this, I needed to overcome my fears, distractions, and self-centeredness. With the guidance of my outstanding coach, Michael Gidlewski, I was able to swiftly transform into a more resolute, engaged, and open individual. I now function within my areas of strength and possess the necessary tools to lift myself from patterns of behavior that do not serve me well. Though I sometimes still notice these habits, I am equipped with the ability to detach from them because I understand their lack of relevance to me now. The most remarkable aspect of this program is the provision of vital tools that enable me to break free from my less than optimal performances. I now have the ability to identify when I’m not at my best and a means to navigate my way out. This program has been a breakthrough experience for me. It’s allowed me to thrive both within my team and with my clients. I am confident in my ability to work through any challenges that arise within my teams. I would strongly recommend this program to anyone looking to take a significant step forward but aren’t quite sure how to go about it. The tools provided by this program have proven more beneficial than therapy, and have tremendously impacted my life.
