A Crisis in Leadership
Be part of the solution—help us build ethical, impactful leaders.
MISSION AND VISION
Building Leaders. Building a Better World.
​
At the Leadership Crucible Foundation, we’re shaping the next generation of leaders to prioritize ethics, service, and positive societal impact. Together, we can create a brighter future.
The Mission
To inspire and equip individuals to become leaders who make a difference in the lives of others through discovery, the sharing of experience, and education.
It is evident from what is occurring in our country and worldwide that we are facing a crisis in leadership.
We find ourselves at a critical time when we need leaders to be called to a higher standard of humility, honesty, decisiveness, integrity, and empathy. Yet, what we see is an inability for many in leadership positions to do just that: lead! This dilemma affects every stratum of our global society, each detail of the business, and the lives of individuals.
We're making a difference by investing in the future of leadership.
We exist to share personal stories of crucible moments and life challenges that define positive and impactful leaders. Our organization highlights these transformative and impactful narratives through various online resources, corporate learning sessions, and programs for students to encourage a higher standard of leadership in current and future generations, resulting in a better world and improved organizations.
Your employees are the human capital of your operation, and they provide the best opportunity for long-term value creation, whether that is in company profits, brand recognition, customer satisfaction or customer service. When you invest in your employees, you are also investing in the future of your organization, and that is more important today than ever before.
