LongView Leadership guides growth-oriented leaders through envisioning a clear, compelling future and energetically bringing it to life.
We approach the work with Confidence, Courage, Kindness, and Resilience.
Growth Strategy Partnership.
Goal Setting
The goal setting process is guided with a long view vision in mind. Vision is essential. For both organizations and business leaders, we integrate mission and core values into the goal setting process while identifying key tactics, actions, and milestones built into a meaningful scorecard.
Coaching
We believe the potential in people is limitless. However, one’s own thinking is their biggest restraint. Through Mindset Coaching and Career Equity framework tools, we help individuals take ownership of their career growth and life.
Leadership Development
We help leaders rise to the next level. This begins with Leadership Selection (identifying the people, the roles, and the goals), followed by skill and experiential analysis. Then, we thoughtfully craft and maintain accountability to on-going Individual Development Plans.

20 years ago, I did not see the Vision of where I could be. I was not equipped with mentors, resources, and tools. But now, through learning from multiple coaches and proven leadership frameworks, not only have I applied successful practices in my life, but I have also guided individuals and teams to develop clear visions and achieve their goals.
I have found that fun and positivity are success catalysts when combined with proven tools and strategies.

“I had the pleasure of working under Lesle for about five years and she personally worked on my development in that time frame. Lesle has a presence that allows an open conversation that guides you to think outside of the box, to think bigger and to always seek personal growth. Her intellect and ability to tie the art and science of my role was extremely helpful in my opportunity to grow and gain promotion. I would not be the businesswoman I am today without her guidance!”
