Over the past year, Lauren LaMantia, Director of Culture, Sustainability, and Impact at Gordon Sinclair, partnered closely with Ashley McCune and the Exec to Coach team. What began as leadership development quickly became something deeper - a shift in confidence, clearer decision-making, and a renewed ability to lead with vision instead of noise. When leaders feel grounded, heard, and aligned, their teams follow. That's the power of stripping leadership back to what actually matters. Lauren's transformation demonstrates what happens when coaching meets clarity - growth that doesn't just impact the individual, but ripples through the entire organization.
For the team at Horizon Promotional Products, transformation came through connection. What began as a strategic investment in The Leadership Collective quickly turned into a deeply eye-opening experience. Immersed among like-minded peers, Zach found inspiration in a culture built on trust, collaboration, and shared ambition. The impact was profound; shaping both his professional growth and the collective energy driving their organization forward.
Growth at scale often reveals the gaps that once went unnoticed. As Gordon Sinclair entered its next stage of expansion, the leadership team realized that momentum alone wasn’t enough to sustain their vision. That’s where Ashley stepped in; bringing structure, clarity, and renewed focus to critical areas that were holding the organization back. Her involvement has helped the team not only navigate complexity with confidence but also emerge stronger, more aligned, and better equipped for the future.
