You work with people who matter: leaders, professionals, teams. You see how, under pressure, they sometimes lose exactly what they need: clarity, connection, courage.
With the Leadership Embodiment Coach Training (LECT), you learn to guide them – and yourself – toward a state of leadership that you can feel and see: a cool head, a warm heart, a straight back. Even in tense conversations, complex changes, and under high work pressure.
LECT is the accredited advanced training program for coaches, trainers, and internal facilitators who want to professionally apply embodied leadership in their work.
What is Leadership Embodiment?
Many leadership programs focus primarily on understanding: models, insights, conversations. Leadership Embodiment adds a missing layer to that: your body.
Embodiment means: not just understanding, but being and radiating what you find important.
By working with posture, breathing, and attention, you can change your inner state at lightning speed.
That is the fastest way to influence your feelings, thoughts, and behavior – especially under pressure.
In practice, this means, for example, that you learn to:
- Switch from stress to clarity in a few breaths
- Enter a difficult conversation with more calm and firmness
- Maintain space for yourself and the other person, even when things get tense
LECT teaches you these principles not only for yourself, but above all: how to guide others in this.
Who is LECT for?
LECT is for you if you:
- Are a coach, trainer, educator, consultant, or (internal) HR/L&D professional
- Guide leaders, professionals, or teams in their development
- Find that “talking about” is not enough – and are looking for a direct, embodied entry point
- Want to help people remain present, connecting, and effective under pressure
You do not (yet) need to have completed Leadership Embodiment Fundamentals (LEF) or other LE training, this can be part of the preparation for the LECT. However, it is important that you:
- Have an affinity with personal development and consciousness
- Are open to body-oriented and experiential working methods
- Are willing to practice yourself – your own embodiment is your most important instrument
Unsure if your background fits? Join one of the taster sessions, and we will see together if LECT is suitable now or later.
What does LECT look like?
LECT is a 6-month program featuring a mix of:
- Multi-day live modules
– In-depth study of Leadership
– Embodiment principles
– Extensive practice in small groups with direct feedback
– Opportunity to bring in your own case studies - Online sessions and peer supervision
– Application in your own practice
– Learning together from each other’s cases
– Additional demos and Q&A - Practical assignments
– Incorporating LEF into your coaching, training, or internal programs
– Reflections and short reports so you learn from real-world application
You will learn, among other things:
- Working with centering and turbo-centering as a foundation
- Recognizing and transforming reactive patterns under pressure
- Exercises for feedback, setting boundaries, and making a clear point without aggression
- How to dose interventions and keep them safe (ethics, consent, trauma-sensitive practice)
- How to embed LEF in various contexts: 1-on-1, teams, management teams, and larger groups
Admission without LEF: how does that work?
The Leadership Embodiment Fundamentals (LEF) is a prerequisite for participation in the LECT. Haven’t completed LEF yet? These two-day training sessions are offered regularly. We will look for a suitable date together with you.
What makes the LECT special?
Lineage & Quality
– Based on the work of Wendy Palmer, founder of Leadership EmbodimentCombination of depth and applicability
– Not just great experiences in the training room, but a concrete translation to the boardroom, management team, teams, and individual development paths
– Grounded in biology, psychology, and developmental models (state/stage/skill), among others, but in plain languageSafe, clear setting
– Clear frameworks: LE is not therapy, but rather in-depth learning
– Room for skeptical questions: we work experientially and down-to-earthSmall group, plenty of personal attention
– Room to develop your own style
– Intensive guidance on your embodiment, teaching methods, and positioning as an LE professional
Many participants earn back their investment by being able to raise their rates, offer new programs, or run in-company LE courses.
