For 20+ years we’ve walked alongside leaders who feel leashed by the gap between what’s expected of them and what they were ever actually taught. You are not the problem. You just need a framework and a guide.

Sound familiar?

Most leaders we work with are carrying the same seven weights.

You’re not broken. You’re under-resourced for what your position actually asks of you. Over two decades of research and working with leaders, we’ve discovered seven weights that hold leaders back. The scorecard names which one is the one slowing you down.

Character

Under pressure, character is what your team is actually watching. Humility and responsibility are the foundation, and when they wobble, trust leaks out of every decision.

Competence

The skills that earned you the seat aren’t the ones it now demands. You’re leading with yesterday’s toolkit and quietly hoping it still fits.

Capacity

Everything routes through you. You were never taught to delegate with confidence, so your time, energy, and attention stay maxed out.

Clarity

Your team can’t finish your sentence about where you’re headed. Without a clear, repeated vision, effort scatters and good people drift.

Community

You feel alone in the role. Leaders grow around other leaders, and you’ve been carrying the weight by yourself.

Culture

Your culture lives on a poster, not in the hallway. Values on the wall, different behavior in the room, and that gap is where engagement walks out.

Consistency

Your calendar is full but your impact is flat. Consistency is what turns the other six from good intentions into outcomes, every single day.

Who you’d be working with Garland & Dorothy

For 20 years

We’ve trained leaders who carry more than anyone around them realizes.

We started AdVance because we kept meeting leaders who were great at their craft and quietly drowning in everything that came after the promotion.

We’ve worked across boardrooms, frontlines, and one of the most respected leadership programs in the country. The pattern doesn’t change.

You need a framework and a guide.

The scorecard is the first step.
