Each mastermind group is limited to no more than 10 members to ensure the participants get the most value from the content, from Lisa, and from each other. Once the group is full, interested applicants can be put on the waiting list for the next Success Leadership Mastermind. If there is enough demand, Lisa will start an additional Mastermind and notify you of availability and schedule.
Because each group is small and exclusive, it's important to determine if it's the right fit for you. Schedule a call with Lisa Hinz to discuss the program in detail.

What the Leadership Success Mastermind Program Includes:
Energy Leadership Index Assessment and 1:1 Debrief
An attitudinal assessment that captures how you perceive and approach work and life and how it impacts you, your organization, and those around you. The assessment and debrief are separate from the group sessions and will be done individually with each member. Debriefs take 60 to 90 minutes.
Session 1: Authentic Leadership and Why It Matters
In this first session, we will have introductions to get to know each other. We'll then dive into Authentic Leadership - embracing your uniqueness and staying true to YOU while succeeding. Organizations that foster authentic behavior are more likely to have employees who are engaged and motivated in their jobs. Authentic leadership has been known to increase employee morale, boost productivity, create a stronger culture, and strengthen trust.
Session 2: Facing Imposter Syndrome, Unconscious Bias, and Managing Confidence Roadblocks
Learn the signs and effects of imposter syndrome and four ways to manage it. We will also discuss ideas around how to approach unconscious bias in the workplace and address the main confidence roadblocks: limiting beliefs, assumptions, and interpretations, and how they can hinder one's success and leadership abilities.
Session 3: Peer-to-Peer Support Open Floor Discussion
Members can share a leadership-related challenge they would like the group's feedback on. Group coaching and discussions can be very powerful as oftentimes what one person is facing is a challenge that others have faced as well. This is where we learn from each other and establish a deeper connection with those in your group.
Session 4: Emotional Intelligence - an Important Key to Success
Emotional Intelligence is pivotal to the success of every profession. To be successful in a continuously changing and complex environment, having more than technical expertise is critical. Having the mental ability to reason validly with emotional information allows you to not only better understand and regulate your own emotions, but to better understand your customer's needs, and connect with others. We will dive into the various aspects of Emotional Intelligence - awareness, expression, and managing emotions, as well as how we respond to others.
Session 5: Empathetic Leadership and Making Tough Conversations Easier
Empathetic Leadership is becoming increasingly more important than ever in the workplace. Learn how to not lose touch with those you lead and connect more strongly, which builds trust and deeper relationships. Also learn effective methods to make having tough conversations easier by using a coaching approach with an empathetic leader mindset.
Session 6: Making Decisions, Prioritization, and Saying No
Being a leader requires one to constantly make decisions - learn ways to make smart, accurate, and conscious choices and how doing so affects your performance as a leader. When it comes to saying no - saying no can be a difficult thing to do. We take it upon ourselves to be of service and provide the greatest value. However, we can't always do it all, especially if we want to protect the quality of that which we are delivering and protect our own well-being. Learn methods to help prioritize your projects, protect your schedule, delegate more efficiently, let go of perfectionism, and confidently say no.
Session 7: Peer-to-Peer Support Open Floor Discussion
Members can share a leadership-related challenge they would like the group's feedback on. Group coaching and discussions can be very powerful as oftentimes what one person is facing is a challenge that others have faced as well. This is where we learn from each other and establish a deeper connection with those in your group.
Session 8: Communicating Like a CEO and Leading with Influence
Learn ways to motivate, inspire, and influence your team and others you work with. Communicating and leading is not simply done by how one speaks, but also by how one listens, acts, and responds. This covers nonverbal, listening, and speaking. Also, learn how to be direct with your communication in a succinct way that gets your point across without giving more information or details than necessary.
Session 9: Defining Your Leadership Vision and Personal Leadership Brand
Defining your leadership vision provides motivation, focus, and direction for where you are and where you want to go. Your personal leadership brand is what differentiates you from others. It tells others who you are, the values you embrace, and how you express those values through your work and leadership. Your leadership brand can highlight your strengths, build trust, and communicate the expertise you bring to your industry.
Session 10: Importance of Self-Care in a Chaotic World
In the final session, you will learn how self-care and success can coexist. Adopt methods to help set boundaries to combat stress and burnout and to help prioritize what's most important to you as a human being, not just as an employee. To end, we'll discuss how we, as women, can support and encourage other women within the industry and help them to stay the course and achieve success. We're going to have some fun in this final and celebratory session!
