Leadership in Heels exists to empower and equip leaders from every walk of life with the clarity, confidence, and tools to lead boldly and authentically. Through transformative speaker series, high-performance leadership academies, dynamic workshops, and strategic community partnerships, we break barriers and cultivate leaders who make a lasting impact. Our mission is to create spaces where individuals rise into their full potential, lead with decisive excellence, and drive meaningful change in their lives, organizations, and communities.

We envision a future where leadership is not defined by position but by impact—where individuals from all backgrounds rise with confidence, purpose, and authenticity to transform the world around them. Leadership in Heels is committed to breaking cycles, opening doors, and elevating voices that have long been unheard. Our vision is to shape leaders who don’t just navigate challenges but redefine what’s possible. Through unapologetic purpose and unwavering commitment, we strive to leave an abundant imprint on the world—one life, one leader, one legacy at a time.

In a rapidly evolving business landscape, leadership is more crucial than ever. But not all leaders have access to the same resources, tools, and opportunities. This is where Leadership in Heels steps in, with a mission to bridge this gap. Our driving force is creating high-performing leaders, especially from communities and backgrounds that have historically been underrepresented or marginalized.

We serve a diverse set of aspiring leaders – from those categorized as 'at-risk' due to socio-economic and personal challenges, small businesses to women who've long been held back by glass ceilings.

We work with small business owners who have the passion but may lack the strategic acumen to scale their ventures. Furthermore, those with leadership aspirations but no clear roadmap also find a mentor in us. Our focus is on creating leaders who not only thrive in their businesses but also make a positive impact on their communities and industries.

Through our unique and powerful speaker series, we provide authentic presentations led by our CEO and Founder, Scharrell Jackson. These events leave attendees with the tools, knowledge, and inspiration to lead with confidence and make a positive difference in their communities and organizations.
