About Us
Who we are
A leadership consultancy with a difference
LIW exists to improve lives by transforming the experience of work through leadership.
We believe in partnership and invest deeply in your performance either as a leader, in your teams, or across your entire organisation.
The customer experience we aim to deliver is “high impact – low maintenance”. That means everything we do should have a positive and measurable impact on your performance and goals, and we should be easy (and fun) to work with.
What we do
We develop leadership capability to improve people’s experience of work.
We do this in a number of ways:
- We are best known for scaled, tailored leadership programs that align and develop your leaders across all levels of your business, wherever they may be located
- We help organisations build high-performance cultures that are designed to deliver on your current and future needs
- We accelerate the performance of teams through our unique “Team acceleration” approach and team coaching/facilitation
- We coach all levels of leadership, from your “C-suite” to emerging leaders
We help you leverage the power of your teams by developing a common language of leadership through innovative, experiential and action-focused development solutions.
Our Story
A mission to improve lives through leadership
LIW has its beginnings in Sydney, Australia, where we opened our first office in 1995. We started with a sense of excitement and purpose to transform leadership in the corporate world (and ultimately help people to enjoy and get more from their experience at work).
Since then, we have expanded to become a truly global business. We have worked with over 300,000 leaders in 21 countries, and our awesome group of 80+ experts are spread across APAC, EMEA and the Americas.
Our purpose remains clear: We are passionate about improving people’s lives by transforming their experience of work through leadership. Leadership at all levels is required for organisations to realise their goals, attract and retain the best talent, innovate to remain relevant, and create environments for people to thrive. This means we need “leadership – not just leaders”.
