You Know the Traditional Leadership Playbook Others Cling to Doesn’t Work.
Â
You're a human-first leader. You believe in inclusivity, empowering your team, and serving their needs.
But misalignment, miscommunication, and scattered efforts are a constant source of pain and drama, especially when your team is spread across multiple locations, countries, and regulatory environments.
It's frustrating, exhausting, and it's holding your team back from the success you all deserve.
It's easy to feel trapped in the broader status quo, believing that change is only possible with a company-wide culture overhaul.
Your growth mindset longs to lead with purpose, but you're surrounded by short-term thinking and outdated methods.
You feel isolated and powerless to create real change.
It doesn't have to be this way.Â
THE MINDSET SHIFT YOU NEED TO MAKE:
ÂYou are the culture your team experiences most directly.
Â
Real, lasting change starts within you and your team – your immediate sphere of influence.
Each of your team members from different backgrounds bring unique perspectives and strengths.
By focusing on what you can control, you tap into a reservoir of untapped potential.
You have the power to spark purpose-driven change from the ground up.
With the right support and strategies, you can transform your team’s narrative, fostering genuine connection, clarity, and shared success.
Your legacy will no longer be defined by external forces, but by the thriving, unity you cultivate from within, with each team member playing their part in the success.
Hello, I’m Laurie.
Founder of Co. Defined.
As a team leader in cancer treatment, I experienced firsthand how purposeful collaboration and valuing every contribution lead to remarkable achievements.
This experience taught me three key elements of effective team unity:
-
Understanding Purpose: Knowing who we serve and why our work matters.
-
Feeling Valued: Recognizing each team member's crucial role in the bigger picture.
-
Connectedness: Fostering unity and support that go beyond mere collegiality.
Now, I bring these insights and strategies to leaders of small teams in business.
My mission: To help purposeful leaders move from feelings of isolation and overwhelm to a place of empowerment—where they are steady, grounded, and supported.
My goal: To help you build the lasting foundations of a human-first team culture, where every voice is heard, every contribution is valued, and everyone is connected to a common purpose.
Your New Reality.
Imagine a thriving team where passion and purpose meet performance.
Everyone feels deeply connected to their work, understanding how their contributions fuel the collective success and aligns with the company's mission, side by side.
Decisions are made with confidence, fueled by a shared sense of purpose, clarity and crystal-clear goals.
Seatbacks become springboards for growth. Trust and adaptability are the cornerstones of your team's collaborative culture.
Individuals feel valued, empowered to grow and develop, becoming shining examples of your team's culture.
Every win is celebrated, amplifying the sense of accomplishment and team sprint. Feel the energy of a team that's truly thriving together.

WHO UNIFIED IS FOR?

Feel like outsiders because your commitment to emotional intelligence, integrity and purpose is dismissed as “too soft” or “unrealistic” by others.
Doubt your leadership as your team drifts away from your vision, leaving you questioning if you’re truly making a difference.
