Inspire your employees to bring their best selves to work.

Personal branding workshops that build engagement and unlock your employees’ fullest potential.

At Create + Lead we support companies to:

Build

Resilience

Increase

Retention

Foster

Engagement

Working in the creative industry is demanding - from tight timelines, hot deliverables and continuous clients’ needs - there is little room to breathe. 

Things are getting done, expectations are met. But people find themselves operating on autopilot, and over time, they lose sight of where they’re going and what exactly makes them authentically them.

This is working on overdrive, and without intervention, it can lead to your employees feeling:

  • Frustrated without clarity on how to move forward

  • Overwhelmed with cycles of burnout

  • Stuck, like there’s no other option but to leave, leading to increased attrition

On the flip side, when employees are grounded in who they are, they feel empowered to:

  • Show up as the best version of themselves

  • Collaborate powerfully with their teams

  • Connect more deeply to their work

  • Positively impact the culture of the workplace

“After working with Create + Lead, I am now a force to be reckoned with. I have tools now that help me be the best version of myself and make the best decisions for me.”

How To Work With Us

Be Your Brand Workshop

The Be Your Brand Workshop helps your employees create a deep understanding of who they are as a person and a brand.

We lay the groundwork for both personal and professional growth by fostering a conscious awareness of who they are and what they want at their core.

Our program is inspired by the process for how we build brands in the advertising space. We apply that same approach to an individual’s personal brand in a way that inspires reflection, collaboration and fun.

As advertising veterans, we know that the most powerful brands are those that are aligned to the core of who they are and what they do, and own that in an authentic way.

And similarly, when people feel connected to their personal brand, they feel more energized, thrive and make more of an impact.

Our Proven Process

“I was impressed by the material offered, the way the program was so well moderated and the excellent communication throughout. This group helped me create a more refined vision that I’ve applied to my career.”

We are Create + Lead

Hello, we are Kim and Jennifer, aka Create + Lead. We spent a combined 37 years of experience in agency life, each working at a variety of different agencies. Meeting in our coach training program, we bonded over very similar experiences in our agency - and personal - lives despite Jennifer coming from the Creative side and Kim coming from Account.

As we reflected on our experiences and our coworkers' and friends' stories, we realized there was a real need and opportunity to create impactful programs to help agencies and marketing companies level up in their leadership and consciousness. And we have since combined forces to do just that.

At Our Core We Are Brand Builders

During our careers, we have helped build these brands:

“I have been able to shift my mindset in a positive way. Rather than seeing problems, I'm looking for solutions with how to level-up my team. It’s led me to re-evaluate how I lead and the type of environment I wish to create for those around me.”
