Is THIS Our Legacy to Our Kids?

  • Entitlement...not Responsibility
  • Feelings....not Facts
  • Ego...not God

How did we get here?

More importantly, how do we change course?

The World Needs AUTHENTIC Leaders.

We watch billions of dollars wasted every year on “Leadership Lip Service”: programs in education and business that produce no results, because they treat leadership like a technique. It’s not.

Rather, Authentic Leadership is first about CHARACTER - which is the power to MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES. Without this foundation, our young people will fail, doomed to a life of mediocrity and misery.

Building CHARACTER in Our Young People is what the Authentic Leadership Foundation is all about.

Formally established in June 2021, the Authentic Leadership Foundation uses training and development models successfully implemented in private business over the past 25 years. The foundation’s purpose is to help young people capture WHO they are, fulfill their BEST SELF, and create BETTER RESULTS in their responsibilities, relationships, and their lives.

Our Approach

At the Authentic Leadership Foundation, we help people of all ages build character as the foundation for their actions and decision making, transforming them into true, character-driven authentic leaders for their communities, organizations and families. We do this by teaching the “Principled Decision-Making (PDM)™ Framework”, which becomes a Framework for Life.™

This framework emphasizes authentic leadership, where leaders harness TRUTH to guide their decisions and actions. This results in Leaders who embody:

Clarity of Purpose:

A clear understanding of their personal and professional purpose. It all starts here.

Character Strength Building:

The continuous development of virtues and ethical traits that make a leader genuine and effective.

Principled Decision-Making:

Making choices based on a consistent set of principles, rather than convenience or short-term gains.

This universal Principled Decision-Making Framework is both formative and practical, ensuring that leadership training is grounded in virtue while also being actionable in real-world scenarios. It champions leadership as a moral activity, demanding both ethical responsibility and practical efficacy.

The Time is NOW.

When you join us, you will be actively supporting our youth education programs. As our past work in business, these programs are very specific in their objectives with measurable deliverables and outcomes. But we can’t do it without education partners and investors. As our nation corrects its course, you will be actively and enthusiastically helping to transform our young people into true, character-driven authentic leaders.
