Diamond Leadership Academy 

Diamond Leadership Academy is an alliance of multi-national trainers, coaches and facilitators who long for democratizing leadership development and unlocking the power of human potential in organizations.

​We believe that:

• All people have the potential to lead and to cultivate their leadership skills. 
• Leadership development is needed in organisations everywhere, as a lever that can and will change the world.
• Leadership development needs to be accessible and transmissible
• By helping individuals to understand & develop themselves, they will be able to actively choose more fulfilling and purposeful lives.
• By training individuals to understand & develop others, they will be able to create trust and empowering relationships.
• By giving individuals the tools to lead themselves and others, they will be able to motivate, inspire and empower the people in their environment.

These individuals will - in their turn - develop leaders, thereby multiply leadership skills, improving the workplace, advancing organizations and transforming communities.
