A StandUP Approach to Leading
From The Inside Out
What Is Leaders on the Rise?
You Don't Just Grow. You Expand Your Capacity.
When identity is clear, performance follows.
Leaders on the Rise is a powerful small-group intensive for leaders who are ready to stop running on stress and start leading with steadiness. Over the course of three days or three weeks (your choice), StandUP’s expert facilitators guide you through a proven energy-leadership framework or helping you understand who you are at your best, what gets in your way, and exactly how to show up differently as a result.

7-Level Energy Leadership System
Leaders on the Rise is built for people who are already good at their jobs and ready to understand why good isn't enough anymore.
When identity is clear, performance follows.
This is not a beginner’s program and it is not remedial training. It’s for leaders who have already proven themselves and who are quietly wondering why something isn’t working the way it used to, or why they sense there’s a ceiling they can’t quite break through.
Some come in performing at a high level, carrying more than they should, knowing they have more in them. Others come in having done everything right but hitting unexpected friction anyway.
What both have in common: the answer isn’t another skill. It’s something deeper.
Ideal Participant List
- High-potential employees identified for leadership pipelines.
- Team leads who are technically strong but want to lead more effectively.
- C-levels, Executive Directors and other high-level leaders carrying mission-critical stress.
- Anyone whose stress is starting to affect their decision-making or their team.
- Leaders who feel like they’re doing everything right yet still plateauing.
Investing in Leaders on the Rise?
Organizations enroll their high potential, new, and experienced leaders when they want to see measurable improvements in team communication, decision quality, and retention, without a year-long program commitment.

A Framework Built on Science. Delivered with Purpose.
Leaders on the Rise is built on the 7 Levels of Energy framework developed by Bruce D. Schneider and the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC), one of the most widely respected energy leadership models in the world. StandUP’s expert facilitators bring this framework to life through highly interactive, small-group facilitation designed to create lasting behavioral change, not just insight.
Named by Forbes as one of the top three tools for effective leadership and backed by peer-reviewed research across thousands of leaders worldwide.
7 Levels. 7 Choices.
7 distinct energy levels that shape how leaders think, communicate, and perform.
Research links higher energy awareness directly to stronger performance in communication, engagement, relationships, and problem-solving as rated by both leaders and their colleagues. Use your energy to your advantage, learn more about the Energy Leadership Index Assessment.
Remember, the cost of waiting isn’t neutral…
If you don’t invest in how you lead:
You will keep working hard.
You will keep carrying stress home.
You will keep wondering if you’re doing it right.
You will keep normalizing frustration.
You will keep plateauing quietly.
If Nothing Changes, Nothing Changes.
The higher you go, the fuller your calendar gets and the easier it becomes to deprioritize the one thing that would actually change everything on it.
Leaders on the Rise is not another thing to add to your schedule. It’s the work that makes everything already on your schedule work and feel better.
