1:1 Executive Coaching
Coaching is where meaningful relationships meet purposeful action. Together, we’ll clarify your vision, define what thriving looks like for you, and align your leadership with your values and well-being. You’ll uncover the strengths that make you uniquely effective, explore practical strategies for impact, and build habits that sustain your growth — personally and professionally.
​
Let’s build a coaching experience that helps you thrive — not just as a leader, but as a whole person.

Keynote Speaker
At the Lucy Leadership Project, we believe a keynote should do more than fill a room with words — it should spark energy, inspire action, and create lasting impact.
Dr. Kendra Washington-Bass and Kelly Horner bring authentic storytelling, engaging delivery, and over 40 years of combined leadership experience to every stage. Their talks invite reflection, courage, and connection — especially for those leading in complex and demanding times.
​Every keynote is crafted for your audience, leaving participants inspired, grounded, and ready to lead with clarity and purpose.

Leadership Pipeline Consulting
We partner with districts to strategically develop leadership pathways — from classroom to district office.
Using a self-study guide and initial assessment, we’ll identify your current strengths and gaps, creating a clear baseline for growth. Together, we’ll co-design a customized plan to strengthen leadership development and ensure a sustainable, equitable pipeline that meets your district’s unique needs.
