Stop paying the hidden attrition tax and extend your L&D capacity with proven programs built for mid-market teams.
*Based on industry research showing turnover costs 1.5-3x the departing employee’s salary. Calculated using average individual contributor salary of $60,000.
The one who just lost you Maria. And Mike. And now Jessica’s putting in her two weeks.
All from the same department. All good people who’d been with you for years.
But here’s what keeps you up at 3am…
This is the invisible attrition tax. It’s the cost of poor management you’ve never been able to put a dollar figure on, until now.
Maria’s replacement cost: $60,000-$120,000
Mike’s replacement cost: $60,000-$120,000
Jessica’s replacement cost: $60,000-$120,000
Total damage from one bad manager: $180,000-$360,000 (and that’s just the direct cost)
And you still haven’t fixed the root problem. You’ve got 8 other managers who could easily become the next problem.
Who’s watching them? Who’s teaching them how to actually lead people instead of just hitting numbers?
Right now you’re playing whack-a-mole – fixing one crisis while three more are brewing. All while the attrition tax is bleeding your budget.
You need your managers to actually know how to manage before they cost you the next Maria, the next Mike, the next Jessica.
Because the real question isn’t just “How do I fix this manager?” It’s “How do I make sure I never have another manager like this again
When an employee leaves, the cost goes far beyond their replacement salary. The problem manager who just lost you Maria, Mike, and Jessica didn’t just cost you $180,000-$360,000 in direct replacement costs. The true cost to your company is far greater. Research shows you’re also losing:
Lost Productivity: It takes up to 1-2 years for a new employee to reach the same productivity level as a high-performing employee who has left. (Source: Qualtrics)
Widespread Burnout: Remaining employees often bear the burden of additional work, leading to increased stress and a higher risk of further turnover. (Source: PeopleKeep)
Team Morale: Your remaining team members are picking up the slack, burning out, and quietly wondering if they should leave next.
Lost Institutional Knowledge: A staggering 42% of a company’s institutional knowledge resides solely with individual employees, meaning their departure can leave gaping holes in critical processes. (Source: Rev.com)
This isn’t just about a single replacement cost; it’s about the ripple effect that costs U.S. businesses $1.8 trillion annually in lost productivity alone. (Source: HubSpot)
Every month we have multiple conversations with executives dealing with the aftermath of managers whose leadership approach has cost them great employees.
They all face the same difficult choice: get these managers some help or let them go.
They reach out to us because they are tired of the drama and out of options.
Sound familiar?
You’ll spend more time debating the leadership development budget than you’ll lose to one more good employee walking out the door.
The Math That Keeps CFOs Up at Night:
What Smart Companies Do: They realize leadership development isn’t a training expense – it’s insurance against much larger replacement costs.
Like the Joint Staff, who saved over $70,000 annually by getting ahead of the problem instead of constantly reacting to it.
The Question Every Executive Should Ask: How many more Marias, Mikes, and Jessicas can you afford to lose while hoping your managers figure it out on their own?

Maybe your managers aren’t toxic – they’re just stuck. Good people doing their best with outdated approaches.
We help solid managers become great leaders who drive engagement, productivity, and retention.

“Several of our C-level executives have made time to attend ALL of David’s leadership workshops. That’s the ultimate testament to their effectiveness and value.”
-Laurie E. VP Human Resources
You know it’s working when your busiest executives won’t miss a session!
The Joint Staff: Saved $70,000+ annually while doubling executive leadership training capacity
What we consistently see: Managers who complete our programs become the leaders other managers want to learn from.
Whether you’re working with problem managers or developing good ones into great leaders, your options can feel limited: cheap online courses most people abandon, enterprise solutions that cost more than your annual training budget, or scattered one-off sessions without any systematic approach.
The big names charge enterprise prices for enterprise complexity. You don’t need (or want) either.
We’re your L&D partner – extending your training capacity with leadership development that actually works, without the enterprise budgets or year-long implementations.

Most executives are shocked when they see this number. Calculate the money you're losing to manager turnover—and how much you'd save by training them properly.
💡 REALITY CHECK: Most companies will debate spending on leadership development while unknowingly losing this amount in turnover costs. The math rarely works the way executives think it does.

Frequently Asked Questions
LinkedIn Learning costs $40/month with 20,000+ courses and 15% completion rates. You're paying to waste time searching through mediocre content, lead magnets disguised as training, and courses people abandon halfway through.
Even if your managers finish a course, there's no guidance on which skills to prioritize or how to apply what they learned.
We deliver 95% completion rates starting at $60/month because we combine expert-created courses with AI coaching and human support. You get:
If you need immediate help with a crisis manager situation, schedule a consultation today. We offer executive coaching and consulting to address urgent leadership issues right now - within days, not months.

Think of it as: Coaching and consulting fix today's crisis. Training prevents tomorrow's crisis.
Our minimum is 3 people because leadership development works best when there's a cohort effect - leaders learning and growing together creates accountability and shared language across your organization.
If you have fewer than 3 people, we recommend waiting until you can include more managers, or consider our executive coaching services which can be designed for smaller teams.

We track:
While we can't measure business impact directly, you'll have clear data showing your managers are actually completing their leadership development - something most training programs can't demonstrate.
Beyond tracking, clients report improved team morale, higher engagement, increased ownership, and fewer 'people problems' that waste your valuable management time.
