The CCU Leadership Circle™
Mentorship for leaders who carry responsibility quietly - in care-based, service-driven, and people-centered work.
What the Circle Offers
Who This Is For
The CCU Leadership Circle™ is designed for leaders who carry responsibility for people, systems, and outcomes — often while managing emotional labor and decision fatigue.
This space is for:
-
Supervisors, coordinators, directors, and managers in care-based or service-driven roles
-
Entrepreneurs and business owners leading teams, clients, or communities
-
Leaders responsible for supporting others while maintaining stability and performance
-
Leaders navigating high expectations, complex decisions, and sustained responsibility
-
Leaders who value reflection, growth, and long-term sustainability
This Circle is for leaders who don’t need fixing —
but do need support.
Why the Circle Is Different
This is not a course or a class.
The CCU Leadership Circle™ is a mentorship-based experience grounded in the real demands of leadership and care-based work. It focuses on leadership identity, boundaries, emotional regulation, and sustainability — not productivity hacks or performance metrics.
Leaders are supported through:
-
Guided mentorship
-
Thoughtful conversation
-
Reflection and real-world application
This is a space to think, process, and lead with intention — not another place to consume content.
How the Circle Is Structured
The CCU Leadership Circle™ is a 4-month guided mentorship experience designed for depth, not volume.
It is offered as:
-
Small, intentional cohorts
-
Live mentor-led sessions (not weekly)
-
Reflection, discussion, and real-world application
-
Grounded in the CCU CARE Framework™
-
A structured commitment focused on leadership sustainability
This Circle values presence, consistency, and depth — not urgency or overwhelm.
