Empowering Leaders to Drive Cultural Transformation

At The Ellevate Collective, we believe that true culture transformation occurs when organizations commit to a comprehensive approach that integrates learning, strategy, and personal development. Our three pillars—cohort-style experiences, consulting, and executive coaching—work in synergy to create environments where psychological safety, belonging, and connectedness can thrive.

 

Our Three Pillars
1. Cohort-Style Experiences
Immersive, peer-based learning journeys designed to develop core leadership capabilities and build relational trust across teams.
2. Consulting & Strategy
Organizational culture audits, Reset Readiness sessions, and strategic roadmaps to diagnose misalignment and build team momentum.
3. Executive Coaching

Individual and small-group coaching that supports leaders in activating new behaviors, navigating complex roles, and leading with clarity.

 

Our Unique Approach
At The Ellevate Collective, we don’t just build better leaders—we build leadership ecosystems that reset culture and drive real performance.

Our cohort-based methodology is grounded in three core domains of leadership:

🔹 Leading Self
The foundation of leadership begins within.
We focus on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, resilience, and goal clarity to help individuals lead with authenticity and adaptability.
🔹 Leading Others
Effective leadership is relational.
We develop skills in coaching, inclusive communication, and team engagement to foster trust and collaboration across diverse environments.
🔹 Leading the Business

Leaders must connect vision to execution.

We guide participants in strategic thinking, performance measurement, and managing through change—so they can lead both people and outcomes.
This approach ensures every leader we work with is equipped to:
• Align with the organization’s mission
• Lead across functions with influence
• Fuel a culture of clarity, trust, and accountability
And because our methodology is supported by the Culture Transformation Formula—Clarity + Connection + Commitment—we’re not just teaching skills.

We’re helping teams reset how they operate, relate, and perform.

Dorothy facilitated a session for the Black Resource Group at Campbell Soup Company. Her content was inspiring, relevant and compelling. I have gotten nothing but positive feedback from the session participants citing her upbeat and poignant delivery of “The Plug”. I would recommend booking her services and intend to bring her back to Campbell in the future. 

Leah Murphy, Senior Manager Corporate Strategy 

Ellevate’s culture work with us was powerful. Dorothy created distinction and language around how our company works; because with out it our world can’t occur. And with language and a framework we can ignite sustained transformation within our culture and organization. Everything else can emerge from that.
