We Are Not Just Coaches…
Breaking Ground has well-exceeded the traditional 1990s GROW coaching model. To increase your performance, we specialise in removing interference through coaching and increasing potential through development.
Authority, Charisma & Behavioural Profiling
Our coaches and trainers are experts in charisma, influence and authority; we want you to become an expert too. We'll profile your leadership style to identify areas of improvement, helping you increase your energy output to facilitate productivity.
Leader Authority & Influence Evaluation
We offer a unique Authoritative Influence and Communication evaluation to identify your authoritative strengths, communication challenges, and any personal vulnerabilities that compromise the strength and impact of your leadership.
Overcoming Interference & Developing Your Potential Quicker
We incorporate these skills into our Executive Coaching and Leadership Development Practice. We break the old coaching model by giving our clients the option to combine the two aspects in one session so they can accelerate their increase in performance.

We specialise in Authoritative Leadership, which is contagious. The behavioural example set by an Authoritative Leader is contagious to their Followers. People automatically follow the example set by an Authoritative Leader.
We develop your capabilities surrounding the Principal Functions and Keys of Authority required at each level of Leadership Transition.
We believe all leadership theories have their place. One key principle is that leaders generate followers. Without followers, we have no-one to lead. In the workplace, this translates to:
- Building a group of Followers – a Team, and
- Influencing them to achieve their goals.
We train you to be hard on performance while managing the motivation of the team by demonstrating emotional intelligence. For this to happen, your followers must see you as an authority, otherwise they won’t trust you or buy into your vision and objectives.
- Breaking Ground’s Leadership Development Programs are customised to each situation.
- We currently train from 1 day to 2-year programs and have programs in London, the US and across Australia.
- We provide 1 to 1 development, classroom or virtual online learning using adult experiential learning theories. PowerPoint is forbidden in the classroom and used only minimally online. Experience is the key to learning as is the connection with a perceived Authority Figure.
- We also provide a unique blend of Coaching and Development to maximise relevance to participants.
- Our principal content includes: Managing Performance, Emotional Intelligence, Trust, Charisma, Overcoming Resistance, Influence and Authority, Allocating Work, developing Responsibility, building Accountability, managing Change, and Handling Conflict.
- We also develop an understanding of the accountability and responsibility for overseeing WHS and Mental Health as part of our Leadership programs. A leader who doesn’t care is not a Leader.
- We specialise in developing capability to perform the functions of each managerial level.
- We train from First Time Managers (Supervisors and Graduates) to Executives.
