69% of employees say their manager has more impact on their mental health than their therapist or their doctor.
Imagine the world we could create if every manager used that impact to inspire, uplift, and empower. Our mission is to build a world where everyone loves the work they do – and it starts with the leaders guiding them.
At Fresh Leadership World, we educate managers worldwide on creating empowered, high-performing teams where every individual feels valued and capable.
We'd love for your team to be next. Join us in changing the workplace, one empowered leader at a time.
Meet our founder, Heather Elkington
Starting as an Assistant Manager on the iconic Harrods shop floor, Heather went on to play a key role building and selling a successful tech company, eventually becoming an Ops Director of a FTSE-100 subsidary, leading five diverse teams across an organisation of 11,000 employees.
These experiences showed Heather the transformative power of leadership in driving business success. Inspired to share the principles that fueled her journey, she founded Fresh Leadership World - a platform dedicated to empowering new managers and creating a world where people genuinely love the work they do.
Welcome to Fresh Leadership World
Leadership is broken. We’re fixing it.
When employees are happy, their productivity goes up by 20%. We know that managers play the most significant role in influencing this happiness, yet 85% of new managers receive no formal training at all.
We're building a world where everyone loves the work they do, by equipping managers with the knowledge and skills to become leaders who leave a lasting positive impact on their teams and businesses.
We’re leading a movement to eliminate micromanagement, reduce workplace anxiety, and create leaders who embrace tough conversations, learn from failure, empower their teams and drive their businesses forward with them.
There are so many ways you can get involved, from subscribing to our newsletter for weekly leadership tips to joining Fresh Start, the ultimate course turning new managers into highly respected and confident leaders over 6 weeks.
