Why claremont?

A few years back I realized that I was not clear of seeing and I was not clear of hearing in my career.

I did not always “see” what so obviously appeared before me.

I did not always “hear” what my authentic self whispered to me. 

I deflected.

I powered through.

I put on my suit of armor.  Every day.

I did not “hear” until the volume became an uncomfortable level.  

One day my authentic self screamed, “it’s time.” 

It was (finally) time to align my actions with my values.

Then came the climb.

I got clear on what I value.

I got clear on how I wanted to show up as a leader. 

I got clear on what I would do, and more importantly, what I would not do.  Despite any pressure around me.

I got clear on who I wanted to climb with and how we would champion this type of clarity, all while celebrating a diversity of opinions.

Today, I share the fruit of that work: Claremont.

Why Claremont? The name resonates deeply within me.  

The definition of Claremont is a light, bright, shining hill, or more profoundly, clear of seeing and hearing.  

This is what Claremont is for leaders, organizations, and teams: a light, bright, shining place to get clear on who they are, and why.

Claremont is the place where leaders come to align with who they’re meant to be.  

Because authentic leaders move mountains.
