The Living Influence
Leadership Cohort
A year long experience helping Christian business leaders move beyond pressure, isolation, and performance so they can build healthier organizations—and healthier lives.
I’ve been to all kinds of leadership conferences, and nothing has impacted me more than the work of Living Influence.”
Al Blain · President
Real change doesn’t happen alone. It happens in trusted company.
Every leader knows what it’s like to succeed publicly while quietly carrying the pressure to perform, a sense of isolation, and even self doubt. All of this quietly erodes your leadership effectiveness and ultimately the culture of your organization. Lasting change requires more than a timely conference — it asks for time, honesty, and a group of peers you can trust. That’s why the Cohort runs across a full year. Alongside 10–15 fellow Christian leaders, you take these principles of grace from idea to practice — until leading from your God-given identity and a position of trust becomes the way you actually lead.
What a year in the Cohort looks like
