What is CheerLEADERship?

Connect, Care, Challenge, Celebrate, & Inspire

Today’s post-pandemic work environment has gotten incredibly challenging to navigate. Employees have different expectations and motivators than the workforce of twenty years ago. We are no longer living to work. To evolve with changing needs, CheerLEADERship was born.

Creator, Stefanie Adams, shares her personal learnings, stories, and best practices from twenty years of leadership training and coaching. This vast experience comes from Education, Human Resources, and Elected Office, accompanied by 15 years of experience as a competitive cheerleader (elementary school to pro) and 5 years as a high school and college coach.

 
Cheerleading provides highly applicable professional lessons for leaders in all industries. Leaders learn to support “squad” work styles while building trust and improving organizational culture and business impact. Utilizing five core themes of connect, care, challenge, celebrate, and inspire, CheerLEADERship provides actionable strategies to help individuals become more innovative and empathetic leaders who effectively create, support, and guide collaborative teams.

Why do we need it?

Top down management, “command and control” leadership…these concepts are antiquated, and don’t drive business growth. Next gen leaders must take an individualized and human centric approach. CheerLEADERship concepts and strategies focus on customizing support, development, and resources that build on individual strengths, create team collaboration and impact. For the workforce of tomorrow, leaders must highlight and celebrate uniqueness and diversity. Our differences make us innovative problem solvers.

As Baby Boomers retire and Gen Z floods the employee roster, expectations, competencies, and collaboration methods are changing; leadership development must change with it. CheerLEADERship provides simple strategies to help leaders create supportive, positive workspaces that employees want to be part of and grow within.
