Is your
leadership
holding you
back?
"At some point, whether you’re building a multimillion-dollar business, leading a small team, or striving to lead by example at home, it’s often your leadership that’s the barrier to achieving the results you want. The Leadership Habit is our flagship program—trusted by top organizations and valued at thousands to millions of dollars—because it delivers measurable results in engagement, productivity, and retention. That’s why our clients invite us back year after year to train their leaders. This program isn’t just a game-changer; it’s a results-changer."

Sarah Cherif, CEO SkillsGym



Make Your Next Leadership Habit the One Small Thing That Changes Everything.

“You don’t get a six-pack by working out once. The right small things done daily build unstoppable momentum. Think of SkillsGym as your personal leadership gym, putting you in the top 1% of leadership performance.”

Sarah Cherif, CEO SkillsGym

"You get the team that you deserve."

"After working with 100,000+ leaders and their teams for over 20 years, one thing has become crystal clear to me and my team of trainers: great teams are built by design, not by accident. Time and time again, we see great leaders cultivating great teams, while poor leaders chalk it up to 'bad luck.' But here's the truth—leadership is more nurture than nature. You can learn to be a great leader without reading every book or attending endless executive programs. We've done all that for you and boiled it down to the essential habits and conversations that truly make a difference.


Think of our approach like going to the gym: you don't need every exercise or machine, just the right routines and consistency to get stronger. Leadership is no different—focus on the high-impact habits and meaningful conversations that build your 'leadership muscles,' and watch your team transform. At SkillsGym, we cut through the noise and trends, offering a targeted, practical approach that works—just like a personal trainer guiding you to real results."

Frequently asked questions

What makes this program different from traditional training programs?

Most programs focus on knowledge, business cases, complex theory, or advanced skills training, often neglecting the essentials and foundational skills. Research suggests that even at the executive level, many leaders lack these crucial fundamentals. Our program flips the script by building from the ground up.

What is unique about your method?

We cut through the noise and focus on what truly works: evidence-based habits and essential conversations that drive real-world leadership success.

What kind of results can I expect?

Expect tangible outcomes like potential promotion, improved leadership engagement scores, better team retention, and enhanced productivity. On a personal level, you can expect greater self-confidence and improved overall well-being.

How long will it take to go through the program?

You can move at your own pace, but the total study time for all the content is approximately 18 to 25 hours.

Do I need to go through all the programs?

No, you don't. Each of the 18 programs is stand-alone, so you can focus on the areas most relevant to your development at any particular moment.

What do organizations typically pay for this kind of leadership development training?

Our clients invest between $50,000 to $500,000 for their leadership teams. Some have invested over $1,000,000 in their leadership development through our programs.

Will I get a promotion after this training?

While we can't guarantee promotions, we frequently see our participants receive promotions or take on more responsibilities after completing the program, thanks to their enhanced leadership skills.
