Mission

Our Story
Like all great movements, LeadershipHQ started with a simple idea.
The idea that the world needs more great leaders.
Leaders who are kind. Leaders who are courageous.
Leaders who grow more great leaders.
From little things…
Following a forced lifestyle change in 2006, founder Sonia McDonald joined the consulting world and discovered her purpose in inspiring people to learn and grow. With a flair for leadership and strong writing talents, Sonia started the LeadershipHQ blog in 2007. It quickly became a must-read for leaders looking for a more people-centred way of leading.
…big things grow!
With a growing following and the desire to make an even greater impact, Sonia established the LeadershipHQ consulting business in 2008. Since then, Sonia and her team of associates have helped thousands of leaders through development programs, coaching, workshops and masterclasses.
LeadershipHQ continues to deliver on its promise of fun, engaging and highly interactive face-to-face and online learning experiences and personalised coaching that helps people unleash their leadership potential.
Building a movement
LeadershipHQ has stayed true to its roots, with Sonia continuing to publish the LHQ blog and adding to the company’s thought leadership with the Just Lead Podcast and Leadership Channel Vodcast.
In 2020, LeadershipHQ launched the annual Outstanding Leadership Awards to celebrate and showcase the very best kind, courageous leaders.
Sonia has also published two books, Leadership Attitude and Just Rock It!, which promote the team’s shared belief that leadership is an attitude, a mindset and a choice. Her latest book, First Comes Courage, will be released in late 2020.
