A quarterly box to fuel your
professional learning and growth
So you can lead and manage with more influence and impact
What is themadebox?
Curated by certified leadership and executive coaches, themadebox
is a quarterly subscription box
designed to share small doses of leadership development with leaders
who want to keep their professional
learning and growth a priority.
Every quarter, themadebox offers a unique leadership development experience. The signature element of themadebox is that curation centers around the Courageous Personal Leadership model, which consists of Four Principles: Manage your internal environment, Ask for what you need, Decide to take risks, and Embody your personal mission, vision, and values. Each quarter, themadebox theme is anchored in one of The Four Principles.
The M.A.D.E. To Lead team created the Courageous Personal Leadership model to focus on critical behaviors that individuals at all levels can demonstrate to lead with more influence and impact. Rooted in research and real-world experiences, the model is practical, applicable, and easy to integrate across industries, positions, and levels. It works in the everyday leadership moments we experience, and is as effective in the bigger leadership challenges we wrestle with over time.

Why themadebox?
I believe the leadership development firm of the future will have to exist in multiple contexts and communicate information in many forms. Firms will have to meet people where they are, and professional and leadership development will look very different moving forward. We know that people want to learn and grow in their careers and in life, and they do not want to wait to attend a conference to do so. We believe themadebox is high in utility, and is another way to meet the growing demand for new learning experiences.
