LeadersLab
The engine room of every 10X development engagement.
LeadersLab is two things at once. It is the home where your managers develop deeply and personally, met by a truly unique experience built around their individual needs. And it is the operating system that runs our development partnership seamlessly, from the operational admin to the detailed analytics on your community's performance and gaps.
Personal development platform
For every manager
A journey built around them
Operating system
For the organisation
Cohort performance & the gaps to close
Two sides · one platform
One platform, two jobs
A deeply personal platform, and a development operating system.
Most tools are built for one audience. LeadersLab does two jobs at once: it gives every manager a development home built entirely around them, and it runs the engagement for your organisation and your Performance Partner.
For every manager & leader
A development home built around them.
Every manager is met by a truly unique experience, tailored to where they are and what they need, not a one-size-fits-all course catalogue.
- Diagnostics that show each manager exactly where they stand
- Execution plans built around their real challenges, held to by Tensai
- Live events, masterclasses, courses, community and mentors, all in one place
- A personal journey that deepens the longer they stay
For the organisation & the Partner
The operating system for your programme.
It runs the whole engagement seamlessly, so your Performance Partner and your people team see everything in one place.
- Operational admin in one place: scheduling, attendance, comms and every bespoke workshop web app
- Live analytics on cohort performance: where managers are strong, and the gaps that need the work
- See who is progressing and who is stuck, so the Partner's time goes where it counts
- Impact tracked over time, ready to take to the board
With a programme, or on its own
LeadersLab does not need a programme to deliver. A manager can use it standalone: run our diagnostics to see where they stand, build execution plans tailored to their own challenges, then work through everything from live events to masterclasses to the community.
For every manager
A platform that adapts to them, and solves the problem in front of them.
Most platforms hand a manager a course catalogue and hope. LeadersLab does the opposite. It meets each manager where they are, builds the work around the real challenge on their plate, and gets sharper the more they use it. Every manager gets a different LeadersLab.
Know where you stand
The MSI shows each manager their real strengths and the gaps that matter, scored against the behaviours their role demands.
Get a plan for your real problem
Not a generic pathway. An Execution Plan built around the actual challenge they are facing, shaped with Tensai.
Develop in the flow of work
Live events, masterclasses, courses, community and mentors, surfaced exactly when their plan calls for them.
Stay accountable
Tensai holds the cadence between sessions, nudges the next action, and adapts the plan as the manager moves.
The personalised execution engine
Real development is not what a manager watches. It is what they do. LeadersLab turns every manager's plan into dated, personal actions on their real problems, and holds them to it.

Explore the manager's toolkit
It starts with discovery
We begin by finding exactly where each manager is.
Before any development, we work with each manager to identify where they are genuinely strong and where they need support. That picture is what everything downstream gets built around, not a generic curriculum. The Manager Strength Index is our default diagnostic. On a programme, we might run a different tool entirely, depending on what we need to surface.
Manager Strength Index
A situational judgement test of what your managers can actually do, against the behaviours that matter.

A deep-dive audit into how your managers are actually experienced by the people who report to them.

Manager Strength Index
A proprietary diagnostic built specifically for managers. Know your strengths. Pinpoint what to develop.
Most managers have never had objective data on where they are genuinely strong and where their approach is holding their team back. The MSI changes that.
This is not a personality test or a tick-box questionnaire. It is a situational assessment across 3 core objectives and 12 specific management behaviours, grounded in what managers actually do. The result is a clear picture of your capability and a direct path into the LeadersLab content that will help you close the gaps.
Once completed, the platform uses your results to recommend exactly the right content for where you are.

From diagnosis to development
Then Tensai turns it into a plan, and a path.
Your diagnostic shows where you are. Tensai takes it from there. It builds an Execution Plan around the real challenge on your plate, then becomes the bridge to everything else in LeadersLab, pulling in the right event, masterclass, course, conversation or mentor exactly when your plan needs it.
It is the layer that turns development from something you consume into something you do. Tensai holds you to the plan between sessions and takes the learning into real action on your actual work.

For the organisation
On its own, or the operating system for your programme.
Everything above works at the individual manager level, with or without a programme. On their own, managers work on the problems they choose to tackle. Inside a programme, LeadersLab adds the direction of travel and becomes the operating system that binds it all together: the admin your Performance Partner runs the engagement from, and the live analytics on your whole community's performance and gaps.
Runs the operation
The admin, handled.
- Scheduling and calendar invites for every session, sent and tracked automatically
- Attendance, cohorts and participants managed in one place
- Launch and closing comms, reminders and nudges built in
- Every workshop web app, resource and playbook, organised by programme
Deep analytics & reporting
The impact, visible.
- Live cohort performance from the MSI: strengths, gaps and risks across your managers
- 360 Manager Approval Scores showing how managers are actually experienced
- Who is progressing and who is stuck, so the Partner's time goes where it counts
- Board-ready impact reports and quarterly reviews, measured pre and post
Two ways in
See it run your programme. Or start using it yourself.
Book a demo and we will walk you through LeadersLab as the operating system behind a full engagement. Or jump in and use it yourself, standalone, starting with the diagnostics.
