Organizations and Leaders We Work With

The crisis of character we are responding to is not specific to any one sector or industry; it shows up wherever people lead people.

We Work Across Sectors

We have developed leaders inside small and mid-size organizations, professional firms, nonprofits, faith-based organizations, family businesses, first responders, and the military. We work with leaders at every level, from emerging team leads to senior executives, in person currently in Annapolis and Groton and virtually across North America.

SLG works with organizations across sectors rather than building out industry-specific programs, because the character work is the same wherever people lead people.

Small to mid-size businesses

building a leadership bench without a large internal L&D function.

Professional associations and firms

developing leaders across member organizations or partner tracks.

Nonprofits

and mission-driven organizations whose culture is their credibility.

Faith-based organizations

seeking a leadership development partner whose framework aligns with, rather than conflicts with, their values.

Family-owned businesses

navigating leadership transitions across generations.

Government

organizations that are actively serving community and country or facing times of transition.

Why Organizations Partner With SLG

Leaders from Systems Planning and Analysis (SPA) share what developing their people with Severn Leadership Group has looked like from the inside.

From Emerging Team Leads to Senior Executives

We work with leaders at every stage: the first-time manager engaging with their direct reports, the mid-career leader who has plateaued, and the senior executive shaping culture from the top. The cohort model works because it puts these multi-generational professionals in the same room, where they learn from one another.

In Their Words

  • I was able to incorporate a lot of the things I learned in SLG in real time, as I was in the process of hiring a new direct report and taking on a more formal leadership role on my team. It really was perfect timing for all of it.

  • The SLG Teams Program provided a platform for the leaders of our Company to do a deep dive and examine what’s working and what’s not in our culture and our way of doing business. It further provided a deeper understanding of the commitment each of our leaders has for the betterment of the Company.
