WORKSHOPS

For teams ready to do the work, not just hear about it.

 

❦

 

Half-day, full-day, and multi-day workshops, plus signature equine-assisted leadership intensives, that take leadership teams through the Aligned Leadership System together. Assessment, dialogue, and embodied practice that doesn’t end when the room empties out.

INQUIRE ABOUT A WORKSHOP

KEYNOTE OR WORKSHOP

Two different conversations


A KEYNOTE 

Sets the room on a different course.


Best when the goal is energy, language, and a shared experience that frames the rest of an event.


❦ 60–75 minutes, single delivery
❦ Audiences leave with language and a framework
❦ Designed for conferences, summits, all-hands

What it gives back: insight, alignment to a shared idea



A WORKSHOP 

Changes how the team operates.


Best when the goal is real shift, not just hearing about the work, but doing it together long enough to change something.

❦ 3 hours to 3 days, application-based
❦ Teams leave with diagnostics, dialogue, and shared practice
❦ Designed for leadership offsites, executive teams, organizational development

What it gives back: behavior change, team alignment, follow-through 


THREE WORKSHOPS

Three depths of work, depending on what your team needs.

 

Each workshop builds on the same foundation,the Aligned Leadership System from Aligned, and goes progressively deeper.

WORKSHOP 01

Recognize the Pattern 


Half-day  ·  3–4 hours ·  up to 20 leaders 

The team’s first look at the patterns leading them.

A half-day intensive built around the Aligned Leadership Index™. Every participant takes the assessment, receives their archetype profile, and works through guided dialogue with peers to make the patterns visible inside the team.

WHAT THE TEAM DOES

❦ Takes the ALI ahead of the session
❦ Receives archetype, drift, and capacity reading
❦ Engages in paired and small-group dialogue
❦ Names the team’s collective pressure pattern out loud

BEST FOR

❦ Leadership offsites where time is short but depth matters
❦ Executive teams new to this work
❦ Pre-keynote application sessions

 

WORKSHOP 02

The Aligned Leadership Day


Full-day · 7 hours · up to 30 leaders 

A full immersion in the system that holds it all together. 


A full day taking a leadership team through Detection, Foundation, and Calibration in sequence.

Morning: archetypes and drift.

Afternoon: the Whole Self Fitness assessment and the Return Loop in practice.

Closes with team commitments and individual integration plans. 

WHAT THE TEAM DOES

❦ Whole Self Fitness capacity mapping across eight domains
❦ Live practice of the Return Loop in real team scenarios
❦ Individual integration plan + 30-day team commitments

BEST FOR

❦ Executive teams ready to shift how they operate together

❦ Annual leadership offsites with appetite for depth

WORKSHOP 03

The Return Intensive


2–3 days · residential · up to 12 leaders 

For the team or cohort ready to do the deepest work of their year.

A multi-day intensive for leadership teams or peer cohorts ready to go past intellectual understanding into embodied practice. Full assessment battery, somatic work, peer coaching, individual sessions with Kit, and structured integration. The version of the work that actually changes how leaders show up.

WHAT THE TEAM DOES

❦ Full ALI and Whole Self Fitness assessment with private debriefs
❦ Daily somatic and breath practice integrated with cognitive work
❦ Peer coaching pairs across the cohort
❦ One private session with Kit during the intensive

❦ Coach cohorts inside TLR Academy or independent peer groups
❦ Founders and executives wanting their highest-stakes development experience of the
year

SIGNATURE OFFERING

Equine-Assisted Leadership Intensive

2–3 days · residential · up to 8 leaders


Horses don’t lie. And they’re not afraid to tell you the truth.


In human-to-human leadership, there’s almost always reservation about truth. In a round pen with a horse, there isn’t. Horses respond to a leader’s nervous system in real time, not their title, their credentials, or what they meant to say. The pattern that’s leading you under pressure, the place where you’re drifting, the way you’re showing up, the horse reads it the moment you walk in.

The equine intensive integrates three pieces of the Aligned Leadership System into one residential experience:


❦ Embodied feedback — your nervous system, made visible through the horse’s
response

❦ Pattern recognition — the Five Archetypes, surfacing in how you interact with the
horse

❦ Presence training — practicing the kind of leadership a horse will actually follow
Available as part of a Return Intensive, or as a standalone residential. Locations vary by engagement.

HOW IT WORKS

From inquiry to integration.


Every workshop is designed for the specific team in the room. Here is how that happens. 

 

STEP 01  •  INQUIRY 

We talk about your team.

A 30-minute conversation about who is in the room, what is happening, what you are hoping shifts, and what success looks like. No pitch. Just listening. 

 ⬇

STEP 02  •  DESIGN 

I design the workshop for your team specifically.

Within two weeks, you receive a workshop design document including objectives, agenda, pre-work, assessments, materials, and outcomes. Nothing off the shelf.

 ⬇

STEP 03  •  PRE-WORK 

The team takes the assessment ahead of the session.

Participants complete the ALI™ (and Whole Self Fitness™ for full-day and intensive workshops) at least a week before. Results inform the room.

 

⬇

STEP 04  •  THE ROOM

We do the work together.

Live workshop (on-site or virtual), combining frameworks, dialogue, and embodied practice. Designed to change something, not just inform. 

 

⬇

STEP 05  •  INTEGRATION

The work continues after the room empties.

Every participant leaves with an integration plan. Optional follow-up coaching, team check-ins, and 30/60/90-day milestones available based on engagement.

 

 

WHAT TEAMS LEAVE WITH

Outcomes woth investing a day or three in.

Shared language 

An entire team that can name the patterns running them. Not vague feelings — specific archetypes and drift domains they can reference for years.

A diagnosed system

Individual ALI profiles plus a team-level reading. Where alignment is strong. Where drift is happening. Where to invest development next.

A practice, not just an idea

The Return Loop is rehearsed in the room until it feels usable. Teams walk out having actually practiced, not just understood.

Team commitments that hold

Specific, concrete commitments the team makes to itself. Reviewed at 30, 60, 90 days. Not aspirational — trackable.
