Welcome to The Leadership Sphere Community Hub

Supporting and Developing Leaders Who Support and Develop Others.

Who Are The Leadership Sphere?

Our 'why' is to develop leaders who contribute to sustainable business growth and success by enabling a healthy and humanistic workplace. We support and develop those who support and develop others. The Leadership Sphere was formed in 2007 by Phillip Ralph and Associates who have a long history of supporting organisations to create breakthrough performance. Our point of difference is a structured systemic approach to achieve realistic and sustainable positive change.

Testimonials

The program was one of the best I have attended given it was very timely. From the rich and "real" content to the great facilitation of Phil, Felicity, Andrew, Ash and Roderick it was one course that stays with you. I would recommend this program for those who want to create a more human organisation where people want to come to work. Dare to Lead is a great experience. 
Simone Wright, 
VP HR Asia Pacific, Pearson. 

I have worked with Philip Ralph of TLS as an Executive Coach for the last 1.5 years. This has been part of an Executive Team development program that he co-facilitated. Whilst I enjoy the team based sessions and find these to be really valuable, Phil’s particular combination of wisdom, practical experience and empathy allows him to be an exceptional coach. With his coaching and guidance I have evolved as both a manager and a leader. This experience has allowed me to deepen my self-reflective practice, refine my system level diagnostic skills, strengthen my influencing tactics and evolve my understanding of the work of leadership to new levels. This work has allowed me focus on what is core to my purpose, of enabling and empowering others and creating the conditions that allow them flourish whilst I continue taking the steps up to be a high impact authentic leader.
Rebecca Lovitt, General Manager, Marketing

The Dare to Lead program not only changed the way that I work and interact with my team, but also how I conduct myself in my personal life: leaning into my values, setting and enforcing boundaries, and ensuring I'm not listening to those in the cheap seats of my arena. I am a braver, kinder, more courageous leaders, mum, partner and human having participated in this program. 
Sarah Louise, Associate, Semann & Slattery.

Time for a Leadership Development Detox?

Detox is a word that is often talked about in health circles. In more recent times the idea of a detox has moved from ‘diets’ to other areas to support our mental health, such as a ‘digital detox’ to get us away from our devices and minimise the overload of white noise being thrown at us via the internet and social media. But have you ever stopped to think about a leadership development detox for yourself or your organisation?
