Outcomes
What participants consistently report
Traditional leadership development is mostly evaluated on participant satisfaction. TLI is different by design: because every participant defines their own adaptive challenge at the outset, there is a concrete, individual baseline from day one.
The figures below come from end-of-program evaluations conducted across all TLI cohorts, and a follow-up survey of 44 alumni who had completed the program between six weeks and one year prior.
of participants report a meaningful shift in their specific area of focus

Participant testimonials, 20+ cohorts
These are not measures of whether participants liked the program or felt inspired in the moment. They are measures of whether something actually changed - in behavior, in perception, in how leaders show up. The reason the outcomes are this consistent is not that TLI is a powerful intervention. It is that when people see reality more clearly, they respond more appropriately. Naturally.
What Leaders Say
In their own words
These leaders didn’t just feel inspired. They made real, measurable shifts in how they lead.
“I’ve done all the tactical training. I’ve learned the frameworks. I’ve taken the personality assessments. And it didn’t work. Like none of it’s working. But I’ve developed more as a human through this program than in anything else I’ve ever done.”
Sarah Howe | Founder
“This is far different from anything I’ve ever experienced. I’ve done four, five, maybe six leadership trainings in the past 12 years - but none of them touched this. It’s not about tactics. It’s about real self-growth. And it doesn’t stop. What’s wild is how much it overlaps into your personal life, too.”
Brian Glassett | Head of Customer Service
“One of my biggest fears was speaking up because I didn’t want to hurt relationships. Through this work, I became aware of the stories I had been telling myself. When I finally started speaking up, something surprising happened - nobody reacted the way I feared. It didn’t damage relationships. I started getting the opportunities I was wanting. I realized now that awareness creates courage. Once you actually see the barriers you’ve been creating for yourself, they begin to lift.”
Sandhya Bidesi | Senior Director
“I believed that to be seen as valuable, I had to do everything - take on a mountain of work. I was rushing constantly, missing conversations, and making unforced errors. This program helped me realize that productivity does not equal value. I finally tested saying ‘no’ - and my boss respected it. I’ve worked with many coaches and taken executive programs, but none of them got to the root the way this did. Everyone else gives you tips to manage assumptions. This framework helps you see them - and test them.”
Karl-Heinz Hoffmann | Head of Technology
“I’ve gotten real value from this and in seeing my capacity grow. When you start thinking clearer and having more clarity, it allows you to think bigger and not get bogged down by distractions. Professionally, it shows up in conversations - not holding back, not being afraid to share ideas, being more confident. Personally, it’s about being more open, more present, more thoughtful.”
Brian Rosenberg | VP of DOOH
“Since working with Ty, I’ve grown my capacity to take on more and more complex and even high stakes situations; especially at work, but really just in my life in general. And the impact for me is realizing that I can do those things without also taking on more stress. Realizing that there is another way and that’s through this approach.”
Michael Kebbekus | Head of Customer Platform
