The Sustainable Mind Leadership
Innovative strategies for Personal Growth
Sustainability is at the centre of success in navigating the modern business and investments landscape addressing innovation, strategic planning, product development and workforce challenges.
Yet most of us neglect to foster a Sustainable Mind strategy enabling us to lead ourselves to lead others in the eye of the storm.
The Sustainable Mind Leadership program was born out of the growing need in the age of rapid technological advancements, where there is a critical demand for professionals who possess a unique blend of human insight and knowledge, business acumen, and innovative holistic thinking to lead and manage businesses and organisations effectively into the future.
The Sustainable Mind Leadership retreat takes place in Valencia, Spain 24-26 of October 2025

The very first workshop we designed for corporates was when the CEO of a UK based called and asked if we could teach his team how to become “great players”. And that was the kick off for using the methodology, experiences and sport-specific knowledge and translating it into the business world.
In sport we train and practice 95% of the time and only compete about 5% of the time if that.
Most companies compete daily in their market, often without leaving time for conscious and deliberate training of the specific skills needed to succeed.
We have designed workshops for local and global companies and organisations to gain the insights needed for any team to function and reach the Olympics of business.
Using the metaphors and training methodology of sport exposes a different view on how to approach many different aspects of a certain challenge and how to train and practice specific business skills required to conquer the market.
The manner in which talent development programs are producing elite athletes that have achieved the unimaginable, is what constantly inspires us to build new workshops that tap into the essence of what, how and when to optimise focus to excel in all areas.
We design workshops to the client specific ask and challenges.
Here is a list of some of the programs we are most often asked to run repeatedly:
Expect the Unexpected
Belonging
Life as an Experiment
Verified Confidence
No Experience Required
Focus on Demand
Business as a Sport

MODERN MEN
The challenges confronting the modern man are many in a rapidly changing world of understanding his role and position and the fluidity of gender.
Traditionally men were guided by their fathers who clearly defined what and how a boy acted, behaved and how to transition into the role and responsibilities of being a grown man.
For multiple reasons modern men often experience a lack of understanding and confusion of how he is supposed to fit in and questions of what is the meaning of modern masculinity?
Most men experience the feelings of the male primal urges and codes of proving protection and security for their loved ones. How does one navigate that in a setting of both male and female careers and very importantly what does that do to the polarity of the male and female?
