The Problem

Your team and company is limited by your leadership capacity.

Should your team continue to be the testing units of your leadership growth?

Finding Your True North:

Aligning your team around your vision can be like herding cats. Are everyone's compasses pointing in the same direction?

Building Your Dream Team:

Assembling the right players for your startup's success isn't a walk in the park. How's your team synergy?

Mastering Emotions:

Leadership requires emotional intelligence to deal with all different stakeholders. How well are you navigating the emotional landscape?

Managing Challenging Team Members:

How are you dealing with conflict and different team personalities?

Scaling your Team and Leadership:

How do you develop a team and a business that can scale. Outgrowing your startup roots is thrilling, but tricky. Is your leadership style evolving with your growth?

Navigating the Startup Jungle:

The entrepreneurial landscape is wild and uncertain. Are you prepared to pivot when the path gets rocky?

Balancing Act:

Burnout is a real threat in the startup world. Have you found the right work-life equilibrium?

Tech-Savvy Leadership:

Technology is ever-changing. Are you keeping up and leading with confidence?

Embracing Diversity:

An inclusive culture is a healthy culture. Are you fostering diversity in your team?

Conquering Crises:

Rough patches are inevitable in the startup journey. Are you turning crises into opportunities?

Your Current Leadership Development Likely Doesn't Work.

Whether it's simply trial and error, reading random advice from blogs, or getting managers to read 100s of outdated management books.

You don't have time to waste on trial-and-error management strategies.

Non-contexutalized leadership advice can hurt your managers growth.

Traditional Leadership Programs are broad, piecemeal, cookie-cutter, full of clichés, and miss the point entirely.

Nor do you want basic, self-guide, shallow management platitudes that any team can see right through as missing the mark.

You shouldn't need to audit 400 mini-courses and build your own frameworks.

Programs that don't specialize in Start-Ups teach your managers the WRONG principles.

Most coaching programs end up as therapy sessions.

Without real context and understanding of how to lead in a startup environment, most coaches hesitate to give tangible, practical solutions, and instead they ask you about "How this made you feel"

You don't have all the answers, that is why coaches need to help be consultants, mentors, and professional ass-kickers

Coaching has to be combined with teaching, or else you end up spinning in a circle for months.

Why coaching and mentoring for leadership development may be right for you?

To answer this question we peel back to the core of the question - why is leadership important?

We invite you to ask yourself this question, because to all leadership will mean different things. It may be the difference your business is lacking to reach its next growth spurt. Or perhaps it’s the step needed for focusing on strategy. For any purpose, leadership is important because it can narrow the gap between your people and your goals. Leadership, if done right, can unite and rally your people to transform from a group to a team, and form a team to an unstoppable force of innovation and drive. Unicorn Labs aims to uncover that potential that already exists.

How can you align your workplace with the realities of today’s workforce - and ensure your team can forge ahead in the future? Team development. All growth and movement of a product and a company starts, survives and thrives in direct relation to your employees.
