We’re on a mission to revolutionize leadership development through our groundbreaking Leadership 2.0 methodology. This human-centric, neuroscience-backed, data- and research-driven approach goes beyond traditional skills training—it delves into the epicenter of leaders’ impact and influence: their mindset.

Our shop floor was struggling with cultural challenges—complaints about leadership, requests for raises, and even threats to quit due to dissatisfaction with management. We decided to enroll our shop leadership team in Elite High Performance's leadership program and 1-on-1 coaching. The turnaround was almost immediate. Within 6-8 weeks, the entire atmosphere shifted. Employees became happier, more engaged, and incredibly productive. In fact, our shop has hit its weekly goals every week for the past two months. The feedback from our team has been overwhelmingly positive—they love their jobs and feel happier than ever working here. As the CEO, I wasn't directly involved in the program, so I can't speak to the specifics of what was taught. However, it's clear that our leaders worked hard to implement meaningful changes, and the results speak for themselves. Elite High Performance provided the tools and framework that allowed our leadership to better connect with their teams in ways that truly mattered. We already had great leaders who cared deeply about their people—it just wasn't being communicated in the way the employees needed to hear it. Thanks to Elite High Performance, that gap has been bridged, and our company culture has transformed.
Chase Dalton, CEO, Silicon Signs
Just want to say a big thanks to Elite for all the support you're providing to the Nokia team!! So proud of what you have been able to achieve and the on-going support you continue to provide the team. This is another differentiator Elite has over other suppliers in your space! I am so proud and grateful of the impact you and the team have had on our team!
Tracey Allen, Vice President, Nokia

Working with Rob has been an exceptionally enriching experience. He has a way to help you get to know yourself deeply and find a path for self-motivation and self- improvement. Rob is just an incredible coach who has had a profound impact on me as a leader and as a person.
Andrea, Professor of Optics and Photonics, University of Central Florida
Talk about a life-changer! In-addition to her phenomenal sport training, leadership and educational background, Susan brings amazing energy, passion and resources to help you achieve whatever it is you desire, and deserve.
Maria G., Entrepreneur
With Elite, you're not a number like some of the other leadership courses I attended. I really liked the large focus on self-awareness (before starting to apply concepts to the team), the small teams and networking. The course really did succeed in opening up my mind about leadership practices in a way that I have not experienced in any other leadership course.
Tommi, Fortune 500 Manager
From the locker room to the Mainstage, Rob is able to read the room and open up space for courageous conversations. He leads by example as he shares his journey of overcoming obstacles in business and life. He speaks from the heart and has a way of making every human in the room know they are worthy and that he truly cares about their growth as the leader of their own life.
Charli Matthews, Founder & CEO, Empowering Brands
The Leadership Launchpad program changed my life! And Rob Kalwarowsky… My favorite coach! The program gave me the tools and space I needed to become a much better leader, and spending time with like-minded individuals looking to improve their skills was priceless. It allowed me to understand and improve my leadership style as well as that of my coworkers.
