​Have you seen it? It's new. A fresh, new look for The Training Library, a membership site which provides training and support to women leaders in nonprofits so they can master their leadership! 

The logo's pencil symbolizes the self-reflective worksheets in each course to help you be more productive, inspire your staff, and feel good about your work and the life you lead!

What's really new? The word mastering!

Keep reading to learn why the tagline, mastering leadership, is so essential for you!

A little bit of the back story...I've wanted to design a new logo for The Training Library for a while now but couldn't figure out the tagline. Finally, after some work with my coach, some soul-searching and late-night insights, the word mastering emerged.

You may notice a theme here—my book Mastering Confidence and The Training Library—Mastering Leadership.  
 
Why the word mastering?

Let's first talk about why I created The Training Library. If you don't know what The Training Library is, let me tell you. 




↙️ Your Pathways to Mastery ↘️


A huge thank you to all who commented, voted and gave me suggestions on the new logo for The Training Library - MUCH APPRECIATED!


Why I created The Training Library 

I often wanted to teach my coaching clients a particular aspect of what they were learning; however, we didn't have the time during our coaching calls. Alternately, I would spend time teaching it, but then we didn't have time to get into how to integrate it into their life and leadership. 

What I needed was the ability to both teach and coach. But it wasn't just about me. 


What you need...

Let's be honest; it would help if you had bite-sized chunks of learning that are affordable, easily accessible, and on various leadership topics. But we don't all need the same training simultaneously. You may not have the same challenge that your peer has today, but you might need the information she needs today a month from now.

Hence, I created a library of training, tools and resources to help you develop your leadership. But honestly, it's not just a library. 


What doesn't work for you...
You can read a book, watch a TED talk, or attend a course and get much of the information I teach inside The Training Library. So why isn't it as simple as that? 
  • First, you may not have the time. 
  • Second, you may not be interested in learning that way. 
  • Third, you may have already tried that, and it didn't work.
You've been missing the ability to integrate your learning in a way that works for you, and with the limited time, money and support you have available to you.


What might work better for you...

The beauty of The Training Library is not the information you get in the courses I teach you. Instead, the ongoing integration of that information into your leadership and life is what makes the difference.

This integration happens when you use the worksheets, complete the journal prompts, establish the habits and create the systems that I guide you through to apply the information you learn. 


This is why you want to master leadership...

The mastery of the skills makes all the difference in your life. The process of working towards mastery is what moves you:
  • from surviving to thriving ✔️
  • from feeling like an imposter to feeling confident ✔️
  • from hating your job to finding fulfilment in your job ✔️
  • from feeling like a failure to bouncing back after adversity hits ✔️


True mastery is choosing the same thing every time. 
  • Regardless if you have time, a master decides to take the time to do a micro-moment of wellness before they go into that tough conversation, knowing full well it will help them maintain their composure.
  • Even though their inbox is overflowing, the phone is reminding them of the three text messages they have yet to get to, and another meeting starts in 2 minutes, a master chooses to take a moment to be intentional about who they want to be in that meeting and the impact they want to have.
  • A master chooses, again and again, to carve out time each week to plan their week, rather than just doing it IF they have the time.
True mastery is choosing the same thing every time. The Training Library helps you create that consistency of choice.


By the way, it's a continuous journey!

And one little secret that all the good masters know is that you'll never get there. Just like in Pacman, when you hit one level, another emerges. When you figure something out, life or leadership throws you another curveball. And just when you get your barrings in leadership, life knocks you down, or vice versa. 

This challenge of the continuous state of change and flux is where The Training Library community comes in. Unfortunately, leadership can be a very lonely place. The higher up the hierarchy you climb, the fewer people by your side and often an even smaller list of those that you trust or should be trusting.


So, who do you talk to?
  • when you've had enough
  • when you are frustrated with the person above you or 
  • when you are wondering if it's time to move on? 
Not having anyone leaves you floundering and even more unstable.


It's time to find your place to belong!

Masters don't get to the top by themselves. They have a group of people they train with. They have leaders, peers and mentors. 
Masters practice outside of the arena.
Before they need them, masters build their skills in the safety of the dojo. 


Where are you training?
> With who?
> Do you have a routine, systems and habits for learning, practicing and then integrating all that you have learned about how to lead with confidence, integrity and impact?
> If not, where will you get that?
Perhaps you'll choose The Training Library.


So what's new?
Just a logo. Just a tagline. Nothing spectacular. 


But what is spectacular is that this may be just the reminder you need to see your leadership training and growth journey differently.


  1. If you are wondering where you land on the journey from apprentice to master, check out this free worksheet. 
  2. And if you are ready to work on mastering your leadership, join The Training Library here.


A gentle reminder to do the inner work!

The inner work that I speak about often is the work of reflection, journaling, practicing, strategizing and making the hard but right decisions because you know in your heart that it's right. That's the work you can get help with inside The Training Library. 


Mastering your confidence begins with creating a plan to move from Apprentice to Master. Take time to complete this guide to understand what you need to do to start the journey of mastering your confidence.
