Turn high-potential employees into
Risk Fitness Club accelerates the leadership impact of the talent you’ve already invested in. More than a one-time communication training, this curated community gives mid-career professionals an ongoing place to practice building the communication skills and self-trust needed to contribute more of their expertise and unique perspectives to the conversations that drive innovation and results.

Develop a Team

The value your team could produce is leaking through their silence
You’ve invested a tremendous amount of time, energy, and resources into hiring and developing the right people.
They’re smart and capable. They have the expertise to help move your organization forward in this AI-driven, rapidly evolving world.
But too often, that expertise stays trapped behind hesitation.
Employees second-guess themselves, over-edit their thoughts, or keep valuable perspectives to themselves instead of contributing them when decisions are being made.
Your organization is left with weaker decisions, curbed creativity, and less return on the talent you’ve already invested in.
You’ve tried to address it by investing in communication training, but the confidence and habits you’re trying to build rarely last beyond the training itself.
The good news is your people don’t need more information.
They need more practice.
I’ve found myself being more vocal in meetings, especially when offering a perspective that may slightly differ… If I have something to say, I owe it to my team and to myself to speak up.
– Wendell, Design Studio Manager

Frequently Asked Questions
Risk Fitness Club is designed for high-potential, mid-career professionals whose capabilities are outpacing the confidence, visibility, and self-advocacy required to thrive at their next level. They’re technically strong, respected by their peers, and ready to contribute at a higher level. They simply need more practice communicating with courage.
Most organizations participate in a six-month cohort, giving leaders the time and consistency needed to strengthen new communication habits and create lasting behavior change.
Participants can expect to spend 5-8 hours a month inside the community. Risk Fitness Club is designed for busy professionals. Participants attend scheduled live sessions and complete practical activities that integrate into the conversations they’re already having at work, rather than adding hours of disconnected coursework.
Risk Fitness Club combines live virtual sessions with self-paced learning, an always-on resource library, and real-world practice. Participants receive expert guidance, community accountability, and practical tools they can immediately apply in the workplace.
Each cohort includes up to 12 leaders. We intentionally keep cohorts small to create the trust, accountability, and meaningful discussions that help participants strengthen their courage muscle.
Most organizations choose one of two approaches. Some create cohorts made up of leaders from the same team to strengthen communication and collaboration together. Others bring together leaders from different departments at similar leadership levels so they can learn from one another and bring new skills back to their teams.
Executive and HR sponsors participate in a kickoff meeting, midpoint check-in, and wrap-up meeting to stay informed on the cohort’s progress, discuss themes, and identify opportunities to reinforce learning inside the organization.
Absolutely. Organizations can begin by sponsoring a single high-potential employee before expanding to a dedicated team cohort, as they experience the impact of Risk Fitness Club.
Success is measured by behavior. As participants consistently do the reps, organizations begin to see leaders speaking up more confidently, navigating difficult conversations more effectively, contributing more openly, and increasing their leadership presence.
Participants have the opportunity to continue strengthening their courage muscle through ongoing membership in Risk Fitness Club, where they can continue practicing, learning, and growing alongside an ambitious community of professionals.
