Our Story
Concentric Leadership was born from an urgent need we couldn’t ignore.
In heavy industries like engineering, construction, transport, and utilities, technically skilled leaders are often promoted into people leadership roles they’re not prepared for.
From our firsthand experience as leaders in these industries, we knew action was needed.
Concentric Leadership empowers emerging and senior leaders with practical skills, frameworks, and the confidence to lead effectively. Our industry-focused programs inspire teams, drive decisive action, and help leaders thrive in high-pressure environments.
We’re not just leadership facilitators—we’re industry experts with real-world experience, committed to upskilling today’s and tomorrow’s heavy industry leaders.
Our team is our greatest strength. Leveraging their lived leadership expertise to develop your leaders.
