LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Practical. Human. Lasting.
Let's be honest:
It's important that managers don't suck.
Effective leadership isn’t built on theory—it’s built on real connection, real skills, and repeatable processes.
Leaders shape organizations for better or worse. Decades of research show that when they’re equipped with practical skills and adaptive mindsets, they build trust, boost morale, and create high-performing teams.
That’s why we focus on more than ideas. We help leaders apply what matters most:
✔ Building trust and respect through relationships
✔ Holding others—and themselves—accountable
✔ Coaching and motivating to elevate team performance
✔ Navigating conflict, emotions, and tough conversations with clarity and care
✔ Designing systems and processes that drive collaboration, accountability, and engagement
How do we do it?

Managing With Mind & Heart Workshop Series
For over three decades, our signature workshop series, Managing with Mind and Heart, and the sustainability efforts both before and after, have been instrumental in helping leadership teams and organizations achieve sustained improvement through the consistent practice of best-practice management skills. (“The Top 15 Management Skills”)
Our workshops are interactive, highly practical, and customizable to meet your organization’s unique needs. Leaders and managers will leave equipped with sustainable management skills and clear, actionable plans to ensure these tools don’t just become the “flavor of the year.” We stand behind our commitment to delivering lasting results.
One-on-One Coaching
Whether through one-on-one or group coaching, we collaborate with leaders to help them achieve their goals, become more skilled managers/leaders, increase their effectiveness, and build greater trust and respect with others. Of course, as leaders become more centered, confident, and skilled, they bring to their organizations higher morale, greater health and vibrancy, and more sustainable positive change.
“You can use the concepts and skills in the workplace and in everyday life immediately. I recommend all new and experienced leaders to take a look at Nash Consulting.”
- Director, City of Seattle
Our coaching approach emphasizes actionable strategies and practical tools, ensuring every session results in clear action plans that lead to measurable, lasting change. Whether one-on-one or in a group, our coaching helps individuals and teams achieve tangible growth and meaningful outcomes.
Executive Team Development
Organizations that invest in their executive team's overall health and cohesiveness reap long-term benefits in terms of workplace morale, sustainability, effectiveness, employee engagement, and much more.
Nash Consulting’s work with executive teams is highly customizable in terms of length of engagement and content, based on each organization’s specific needs.
“The NCI workshops have helped establish the solid foundation upon which our company culture is established. Our management team is more effective and our whole team’s communication style and efforts are significantly improved as a result of their work with us.”
- CEO, OneEnergy Renewables
One of our strategies for building a healthy leadership team includes a “Common Commitments” approach - a process that establishes behavioral norms that support the practices of accountability, decision-making, teamwork, respect, attention to results, cohesiveness, and more. This process culminates in a group consensus decision around a shared set of team commitments and a discussion about sustainability - avoiding the “flavor of the year syndrome.”
Leadership Retreats & Workshops
Retreat settings offer a much-needed break from the day-to-day work environment and can allow a group to focus much more of their attention and energy on the task at hand, whether that be learning best-practice management skills, creating common commitments, engaging in team-building, revising a mission statement and creating a set of organizational values, or dealing with a particular organizational roadblock.
“If you're serious about investing in real management training that will have a lasting positive impact and you're willing to put in the effort to succeed, you'd be hard pressed to find a better organization to partner with.”
- CEO, MoxiWorks
We collaborate with you to create a retreat experience for your group that precisely fits your needs, your culture, and your goals.
