Welcome to LTR Leadership
We specialize in Emotional Intelligence (EI) assessment, skill building, coaching, and development for leaders and their teams.
To lead in today’s challenging world requires leaders who know how to build trust, foster collaboration, and empower others to do great work. One of the best ways to do this is by practicing emotional intelligence. We help leaders, and their teams, leverage the power of emotions to create positive and engaged work cultures that spark innovation, increase productivity, and reach organizational and personal goals.
With more than three decades of leading, coaching, and developing teams in and out of the Federal workspace, we understand the challenges of leading change, especially in resistant work cultures, with resistant leaders. Emotional Intelligence, together with the positive psychology of Appreciative Inquiry, helps average leaders become great leaders. We are ready to partner with you to help you lead change no matter where you are or where you work!
