What this is.

The Compleat Leader has transformed those who have chosen to enter the deep waters of change with us.

Carefully curated experiences set this program apart from more traditional leadership development programs.

Provocative dialogue, deep insights, and the expertise of peers and executive coaches converge to support you as you recharge and set forth on the path to embracing your purpose.

“Rivers and the inhabitants of the watery element were made for wise (wo)men to contemplate and fools to pass by.”

Drawing on deep expertise in developing high-performing leaders and building effective teams, we create and hold a space that enables participants to become Compleat—to unlock their full potential to live into their values and have greater impact.

Through the meditative experience of fly fishing and under the supportive care of expert guides and coaches, the path to transformative insights and clarity emerges. Surrounded by majestic scenery away from distraction, you will connect with nature, with each other, and with yourself.

Our pleasantly confronting approach allows us to shape a group dynamic that leads to a collective "digging deeper". Participants draw on a diverse set of experiences, offering unique perspectives to their peers.

What it is not.

We won't let you stay on the surface—we nudge and provoke you to go deep because your transformation depends on it.

  • No conference rooms

  • No lectures, lessons, or leadership exercises

  • No slide decks or workbooks, and

  • No corporate “excursions” with the facade of real work

The result.

You will gain profound clarity, a deepened desire and readiness to change, as well as newly found confidence in your ability to forge a meaningful path forward in pursuit of greater impact.

“The ripple effect of The Compleat Leader is limitless.”

What people say.

  • “The backdrop of this program is a supportive environment that provides a perspective which, in my experience, simply can’t be accessed in more traditional leadership development programs. The Compleat Leader was an experience I will never forget—it provided me clarity that previously felt unattainable in a moment when I needed it most in my career and life .”

  • “The fishing transported me to a state I call relaxed attention. It helped me become self-aware and present on a level I had not experienced before. The daily fire-side chats with everyone deepened the insights I had on the water, creating big aha moments for me, and linkages between fly-fishing and leadership became more explicit over time. Learning unfolded organically, in part because of the powerful support of a community we created together.”

  • “I jumped in with both feet to be part of this experience. I was exposed to incredible humans above all else—we pushed each other to embrace our authentic truths. That crew will forever be part of my tribe. Najeeb and Scott are the real deal as my guides, even to this day. Be ready to dig deep, to be one with nature, to walk away reminded of your purpose, and to own your life and career on your own terms.”
