Research shows that fewer than 1 in 3 employees apply what they learn in corporate training, and some studies put the number as low as 12%. Do not become part of that majority. Look at our reviews or use the link to schedule a 30-minute Zoom call and see the difference for yourself.

About Empowered by Design:

Everyone teaches leadership skills. Empowered by Design's signature program - 'Accelerate Leadership Excellence with the Shiftcode™ Model' teaches the behaviours behind the impact.

It's not another leadership development program. Our focus is on behavioural intelligence for leadership excellence. Shiftcode™ is a leadership methodology that transforms results by shifting behaviour first. It’s not your skills that build trust, engagement, collaboration, or inspiration. It’s your behaviours.

We equip leaders, and teams with practical tools and behavioural frameworks to shift from outdated leadership models to emotionally intelligent, trust-driven leadership that creates lasting impact. Our work is anchored in helping leaders break through behavioural blind spots, cultivate behavioural intelligence, and accelerate leadership excellence in real-world, high-pressure environments.

Through bespoke keynotes, immersive workshops, and transformative mentorship programs, Empowered by Design supports modern leaders for the modern workplace. We partner with organisations who are ready to elevate their culture, align leadership behaviours with purpose, and turn insight into measurable action for impact.
