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:

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.
