What Makes a Remarkable Year?

As the close of 2024 approaches, it’s easy to see positive momentum at Good Leadership. The team is so grateful for the teamwork of clients, partners, coaches, sponsors, and staff who co-created these substantial steps forward: 

1. Healthy Accountability Research: With the help of an amazing 15-member steering team who guided the research, the Good Leadership team completed 153 personal qualitative interviews and 4,280 survey participants from dozens of companies across 21 industries. There’s no questioning this as the biggest accomplishment of the year. 

2. The Good Leadership Conference: More than 250 senior executives from nearly 50 companies attended the daylong conference where the Healthy Accountability Research was unveiled. Participants learned how the research into this very complex subject points to some simple steps along the Pathway to Healthy Accountability™. 

3. Twin Cities Business Magazine Feature: A feature in Twin Cities Business Magazine highlighted the powerful work and impact of Good Leadership. Click here to read the article. 

4. Client and Partner Collaboration: This year included facilitating 33 Leadership Alignment Retreats, debriefing 175 Hogan assessments, and delivering meaningful transformations in 59 organizations for clients who believe goodness pays. 

5. Good Leadership Breakfasts: The excitement for this leadership development event continues after 113 breakfasts and 14 years of building community. With more than 35,000 guests through the door, the event series continues to shape the research and point of view of the coaching team.  

6. Expanding the Team: Two exceptional talents joined Good Leadership: 

• Jill Duevel, Director of New Business Development, brings fresh energy to transform the organization. 

• Matt Tappe, Graduate Research Assistant, contributed outstanding efforts to the Healthy Accountability Research Project. 

Looking Ahead to 2025 

The excitement doesn’t stop here. In 2025, the focus will continue to be sharing the Healthy Accountability Research through workshops, coaching, and development programs. Here are just a few things generating excitement: 

• Launching the spring series of the Good Leadership Breakfast. This spring’s theme will be The Pathway to Healthy Accountability™. 

• Building on the momentum of leadership retreats and assessments to expand reach and influence. 

• A new book on Healthy Accountability.
