“Having Peter as my trainer, coach, and mentor has helped me to focus more on my wellbeing, appreciate my wisdom, and discern how at this stage of my life I can best serve others and co-create value with them. Peter is incredibly supportive, direct, quick-witted, listens at a deep level, and using his ability to “play” with words he provides further insight and perspective almost instantaneously.”

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, Michael Gidlewski, 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 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!

The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program is both helpful and intriguing. Before beginning this program, my primary goal was to become more confident and skilled in decision-making. I recognized the need to transition from being reactive, indecisive, and passive to being proactive, decisive, confident, and engaged.

One of the highlights for me was the Central Question and Centering Questions, which guided me through challenging scenarios and enabled a deeper understanding of myself.

I’ve discovered this fulfillment naturally permeates other areas of my life, too. Despite being heavily oriented towards precision, quality, and headstrong leadership, I realized through the program that I needed to adopt a more heart-centered, qualitative, and community-focused approach. My coach, Jordan White, guided me proficiently in transitioning my mindset. The result being, I now think differently; I feel balanced and more confident in my leadership role. The highlight of this program for me was my coach. Jordan was warm, thoughtful, attentive, and utterly inspiring. My experience with the program can be aptly described as both eye-opening and soul-searching. It’s provoked every emotion possible while helping me maintain an out-of-the-box thinking approach. I would highly recommend the Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development Program to anyone who feels stagnant yet knows they have the potential to get to the next level. If you’re feeling stuck in neutral but know you have the fuel to reach your destination, this program is for you.

The Valuegenics science [neuro-axiology] and approach is outstanding. It set the stage for a Board meeting where we went deeper into Purpose and trusting teamwork than I ever thought possible. People brought their “A” game to the table and we are poised to execute with passion!

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 highly recommend this program to anyone who is looking to make meaningful improvements or changes in their life. The Axiogenics Self-Leadership Development program has helped me achieve my goal of being able to confidently work on things that I want to do, trusting that I will make the money that my family needs to live our new life. I can now clearly see what drives my sense of wanting to be perfect, and how that holds me back from being the rainmaker that I want to be.  I am easily able to recognize when I am taking on tasks and issues that belong to other people. This is very empowering, and is a huge help at work. Working with my coach, Peter Demarest, also helped me realize that I have the skills to be a rainmaker, and I can learn to enjoy the process. My favorite thing about this program is being able to see the connections between the different parts of my life. Axiogenics helped me see that my mindset around my husband’s autism was the same as my mindset around work. I also love that these are skills that I can continue to hone throughout my life, and that I now have a set of tools that helps me identify the issues so I can address them.

Note: Julie went on to become a Certified Axiogenics Partner.

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.
