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.

Elevated awareness around my decision-making is one of the most effective tools I learned in the program.

I sum up my experience as “profound, empowering, and thought-provoking”. I highly recommend this program for anyone who is looking to become a better version of themselves, change habits or patterns in their life, and make better decisions.

The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program has been a game-changer for me, and I highly recommend it to anyone juggling numerous responsibilities, especially those in leadership roles. The program has enhanced my ability to maintain perspective and address challenges effectively. It was inspiring to witness a teammate, who once struggled with frustration, find clarity and overcome obstacles through the principles we learned. The Central Question and the concept of staying in my “A-Game” significantly boosted my performance. My initial goal was to prioritize my responsibilities better and become the best version of myself. Through collaboration with my coach, I learned to be less demanding and distracted, and more self-aware, present, and focused. Asking The Central Question consistently helps me concentrate on the task at hand and make informed decisions. One of the highlights of the program was mastering the art of recognizing my triggers, allowing me to maintain my “A game” for the benefit of my company, family, and friends. By committing honestly to this program, I’ve discovered a more efficient way to manage myself, enabling me to present a clear, calm, and focused self to my team. This program truly can have a profound impact on your life.

My name is Karmin Jenkins and my journey with the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program has been transformative. My goal was to live authentically and consistently from my strengths. I quickly learned, under the guidance of my coach, Dr. Melodye Hilton, that to fulfill this, I needed to become less influenced by biases each day and more driven by my assets. When I started this program, I was completely ruled by my biases. However, the coaching and guidance provided by Dr. Hilton enabled me to experience deep-seated changes in my behavior and mindset, all without feeling guilt or shame. What I really loved about this program was taking the assessment as it allowed me to better understand myself and my past behaviors. It gave me insights into how to coach others and enhanced my interactions with my mental health therapist. In summary, I feel as though I have been reset and realigned in a way that allows me to live as I was truly intended to. If you’re someone seeking to understand the core of your behaviors and the cause-effect relationships in your life, I highly recommend this program. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Hilton for her coaching and to Axiogenics for providing the resources that enabled this transformation.

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.

My name is Helene Burns, and I came to the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program with the goal of self-nominating for the American Organization of Nurse Leaders (AONL) Board, representing Region 2, including New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. At the beginning of the program, I was dealing with issues such as being overly perfectionistic, type A, and feeling insecure. However, through my work with my coach, Mary Kutheis, I was able to shed these negative traits and instead become more decisive, courageous, and confident in my abilities. This transformation has substantially enhanced my professional interactions and made me more adept at decision-making. The central question and “thinking good” have become my anchors for maintaining mental clarity during problem resolution. The program’s approach to recognizing and reducing “B Game” thoughts, while amplifying my “A Game” thoughts, has wholly altered my perspective. The coaching sessions with Mary were beneficial and enjoyable, setting this program apart from others I’ve participated in. This learning experience’s applicability to both work and life is truly remarkable. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone seeking to elevate their “A Game”. Trust me; it’s a game-changer.

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 name is Mary and I recently had the privilege of participating in the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program. When I embarked on this journey, it was with the intention to find balance in my professional and personal commitments. I soon realized I needed to reevaluate my expectations, as I was overcommitted, constantly striving for perfection, and frequently exhibiting impatience and dissatisfaction. Through my sessions with my profoundly insightful coach, Kristin Clark, I was able to swiftly transition to embodying more reasonable expectations, expressing contentment and supportiveness, and feeling more satisfied with my work products. What resonates most with me about this program is its methodical approach to personal growth, compelling us to acknowledge our weaknesses and fine-tune them into strengths. In summary, my experience in this program saw me evolve from a overextended perfectionist to a balanced, content, and resilient executive. The personal growth and leadership skills I have developed are invaluable and I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to elevate their self-leadership capabilities.
