Leadership Lab Accelerator

The Decalō Leadership Lab Accelerator is a high-impact, cohort-based development experience designed to help principled leaders translate who they are into how they lead every day. This immersive program blends identity work, behavioral practice, and real-world application to build the clarity, confidence, and consistency leaders need to strengthen culture and drive performance. Across three focused days, leaders engage in facilitated learning, scenario-based practice, and peer accountability that mirror the realities of leading in complex environments. Participants learn how to communicate with intention, build trust, navigate change, and lead teams with greater alignment and ownership. Following the in-person experience, leaders continue their growth through structured group coaching that reinforces new habits, deepens insight, and accelerates long-term impact. The Accelerator creates a supportive community where leaders learn together, challenge one another, and build the behaviors that sustain high-performance cultures. Designed for leaders navigating growth, complexity, or transition, the Leadership Lab Accelerator equips them with the tools, mindset, and presence to lead with clarity, integrity, and measurable results.

From Alyssa

I think about intent vs impact and positions vs solutions all the time now and the importance of agreeing on what important words mean as well as identifying the underlying problem before proposing solutions. All of that comes up for me when I think of the impact you made on me, as well as your authenticity!

From Ben

Good morning all! I hope you’re doing well. I believe is shared about you, Katherine, and everyone else during our adjourning meeting. My highlights of our partnership surfaced more in the late part of last year and early this year and I acknowledged your passion for doing the work you absolutely love and embody. It is evident in how you show up for clients to ensure they are able to push beyond what is comfortable and shift their frame of thinking to being accountable for positive behavioral changes

From Shavonney

Last year, my team and I experienced a profound transformation through leadership training and coaching from Katherine Coles, the founding principal of Decalō Leaders. She facilitated a Team Cohesion Workshop Series that provided us with invaluable tools to understand and refine our communication styles, resolve conflicts more effectively, and foster a stronger, more cohesive team. Katherine’s real-time coaching allowed us to apply these tools in practical situations, helping us see the positive intent behind each colleague's perspective and approach to problem-solving with newfound clarity. These tools have not only resolved immediate challenges but have also positioned us as empowered problem-solvers ready to tackle future obstacles.

FDA Middle Manager

What made Katherine exceptional was that her approach did more than deliver strong results; it built cohesive, healthy teams. People chose to follow her because she created an environment where collaboration felt natural, where accountability was shared, and where everyone clearly understood the vision and direction.

LMI Project Manager

I still think about what I learned from her almost every day. I now manage a younger team, and I intentionally apply the lessons I learned from Katherine. I try to communicate more clearly, be more direct, and remain respectful even in difficult moments. She showed me that true leadership is not about authority. It is about creating a culture where people feel safe to contribute and empowered to do their best work. Her influence extends beyond my professional life. When I need to approach sensitive or emotionally difficult conversations with my own family, I often pause and ask myself, “What would Katherine do?” Following that mindset has made me more confident and honest in all areas of my life. Katherine changed the way I lead, the way I communicate, and the way I show up for the people around me. She is the kind of leader who makes a lasting impact, and anyone who works with her will feel that difference immediately.

Lauren Designation

I have fully embraced Katherine’s approach to coaching and leadership development, both personally and professionally, which has led to greater self-awareness and stronger team dynamics. As the former Director of a government learning organization with 40 staff members serving more than 6,000 employees, I recognized that strengthening my leadership skills was essential to my success. Katherine provided me with the tools to shift from a predominantly transactional leadership style to a more transformational one, enabling me to navigate challenges and organizational change with clarity and confidence. Our individual conversations and team sessions created a safe space for vulnerability, which deepened trust within my team and ultimately contributed to the success of our division and the employees we served.

Valerie

Top of mind is the courage to speak up, express my truth, and challenge things that don’t support the outcomes we hope to achieve. I am less afraid of storming and engaging in conflict when it challenges artificial harmony and strengthens cohesion, creating better relationships and results.
