Leadership Training Courses
Transform your personal development
Elevate your Leadership Skills
Living and working with intention is an ongoing endeavor, not a destination. Inspired by this fact, we’ve created a range of programs that empower your journey.
Work with Meaning
Learn moreWork with Meaning is the foundation of our transformational series of courses created to bring meaning to how you work, lead, and collaborate. We developed the Work with Meaning curriculum from 20+ years of research exploring meaning at work. Through this research we built models to unlock human potential, improve the workplace dynamic, and help individuals do great work together. Meaning is a process that can be applied to almost everything and can transform your life.
Our unique 1-on-1 approach to talent development
Our curriculum is designed to challenge limiting beliefs and transform how you think about meaning in order to inspire and motivate. Research-backed methodologies help you discover and develop your own unique meaning model that can be used for continual growth and development throughout your career.
One-on-one sessions with a personal guide help to create an environment for growth and optimized learning.
Levers of change
Levers of change are the “key ingredients” that underpin expected changes in learning programs. At least five potential levers of change appear to drive benefits from the Work with Meaning Program:
Meaning filtering
- Our individual lenses are shaped by our perceptions, beliefs, and experiences and affect how we interpret and interact with the world around us.
Self-efficacy
- Identifying your values and creating a framework for making decisions gives you a sense of purpose and direction.
Self-empathy
- Understanding and accepting your own emotions, thoughts, and experiences without judgment or criticism allows you to respond to them in a compassionate way.
Cognitive reappraisal
- Identifying and challenging negative or unhelpful thoughts that contribute to negative emotions aids replacing them with more positive and realistic thoughts.
Sense-making
- By examining patterns and identifying the underlying values, we can gain insight into our own motivations and priorities, allowing us to understand and navigate interpersonal conflicts.

Results and Benefits
Lasting benefits with research proven impact
Pathways teamed with Humanity by Design to perform a third-party study of the Pathway’s training programs to understand the program’s impact on current participants, clarify the program’s underlying change theory, and link program content to existing scientific theories and empirical evidence. In this research stage, Humanity by Design conducted semi-structured interviews with participants that completed the Work with Meaning program. In Humanity by Design’s thematic analysis, participants’ feedback reported several direct and wider benefits such as self-efficacy, long-term changes in career alignment and improved relationships with team members.
