Equipped
to Lead
Effective leadership means acting in alignment with your own unique design. Through one-on-one coaching, executive team development, and small group classes, Leading by DESIGN equips leaders across West Michigan with the tools and training to discover and develop their individual blueprint for success.
Long-term Results
Behavior change takes time. Unlike a seminar or weekend retreat, our leadership training programs involve a long-term process. This approach provides leaders ample time to digest, question, practice, and apply concepts.
Practical Application
At Leading by DESIGN, we go beyond teaching concepts and offering tips — we reinforce key learnings through practical application and structured accountability, and we help leaders internalize concepts through on-site learning.
Ongoing Support
Our programs at Leading by DESIGN emphasize ongoing accountability, guidance, and support. In small groups, triads, and one-on-one coaching, leaders are offered a safe place to discuss challenges and receive encouragement.

From ‘Great Man’ Leadership to Alignment
Imagine casting a vision for and leading a team who's members change constantly due to injury or offseason moves. Imagine your job performance being evaluated and scrutinized not at a quarterly or annual review--but every week, by multiple coaches, profession pundits, and thousands of fans.
That's the context for Rodger Price's interview with veteran NFL quarterback Kirk Cousins.
