  • Five Years Later, This Leadership Training Stuck and It's Still Paying Off | Cortex Leadership Consulting

    Five Years Later, This Leadership Training Stuck and It's Still Paying Off < Back Kathlynn Stone Mar 14, 2025 With clients across the globe, Cortex Leadership Consulting equips leaders with the skills to strengthen their teams, improve communication, and drive company success. One company that experienced this transformation firsthand is CMG Leasing in Blacksburg, Virginia. We connected recently, almost 5 years after their engagement with Cortex. It turns out that when Lynda Foster led a leadership training session for their team, it set in motion a fundamental shift in the way they worked together. Today, the lessons they learned are still shaping how they lead and communicate. Through Cortex, Sarah Boor and her team didn’t just learn about DISC behavioral assessments and the Dreaded Drama Triangle. They reshaped their entire approach to leadership, communication, and conflict resolution. A New Mindset on Conflict and Leadership For Sarah, the change was personal. She had always avoided conflict, doing whatever it took to sidestep difficult conversations. “I would do anything to avoid it,” she said. “But after working with Lynda, I realized that avoiding conflict only led to miscommunication, overpromising, and unnecessary stress.” https://video.wixstatic.com/video/828fef_c0dbab09a669408da25cbaa71984b351/1080p/mp4/file.mp4 DISC helped Sarah develop self-awareness and recognize her instinct to retreat when confronted with tension. She learned that for someone like her, the first step wasn’t engaging in conflict. It was simply staying still. “I had to practice pausing before reacting. Just creating space changed everything,” she explained. “Instead of knee-jerk reactions, I started responding with intention. My team learned to do the same.” Building a Stronger Team Through Better Communication The training didn’t just change individual behaviors. It transformed how the team operated as a unit. “We started holding each other accountable in a way that made us stronger,” Sarah said. “Instead of reacting emotionally, we reminded each other to take a step back, ask questions, and truly listen.” These lessons also reshaped how they interacted with customers. “In the past, I dreaded difficult calls. Now, it’s my favorite part of the job,” Sarah said. “When you take the time to understand where someone’s frustration is coming from, you can de-escalate situations, improve communication, and create better experiences for everyone involved.” Leadership That Lasts Perhaps the greatest testament to the power of Cortex’s training is its lasting impact. Even as time has passed, Sarah and her colleagues continue to apply what they learned. As new team members join, they pass down these leadership principles, ensuring that the investment in development continues to pay off. “For companies thinking about leadership training, my advice is simple—do it,” Sarah said. “Employees don’t just want a boss. They want a coach who helps them grow. That’s what Cortex gave us.” Transforming Leadership at Every Level Sarah’s story is just one example of how Cortex Leadership Consulting helps leaders and teams redefine the way they work. If you’re ready to create stronger leaders, build a more cohesive team, and foster a culture of emotional intelligence, now is the time to take the next step. Cortex doesn’t just teach leadership. We transform it. Contact us today to learn how our training programs can impact your team and your business.

  • Cortex Leadership Consulting CEO Lynda Foster to Deliver Wrap-Up Keynote at the Emerging Technology Conference | Cortex Leadership Consulting

    Cortex Leadership Consulting CEO Lynda Foster to Deliver Wrap-Up Keynote at the Emerging Technology Conference < Back Cortex Leadership Consulting Oct 31, 2025 Cortex Leadership Consulting CEO Lynda Foster to Deliver Wrap-Up Keynote at the Emerging Technology Conference Cortex Leadership Consulting CEO Lynda Foster will close the Roanoke-Blacksburg Technology Council’s Emerging Technology Conference as the Wrap-Up Keynote Speaker with her address, “The New Rules of Leadership in the Age of AI: Mastering Time, Teams, and Tools.” In this high-energy and reflective session, Foster will take attendees on a journey through the decades of leadership evolution — from a time of limited access and information scarcity to an age of overwhelming data, connectivity, and automation. Her keynote explores the question leaders must now answer: “How do we find — and stay focused on — the signal in all this noise?” Drawing from more than 15 years of executive coaching, leadership research, and technology innovation, Foster will illustrate how artificial intelligence is reframing leadership — not by replacing people, but by accelerating how leaders think, collaborate, and make decisions in real time. She will share insights from her proprietary systems including Time Mastery 2.0 , The New Rules of Teamwork , and The AI Strategic Leader Program — and demonstrate how leaders can co-think with AI without losing what makes them human. AI Leadership Snapshot: A Conference First Developed by Cortex exclusively for this year's conference, the AI Leadership Snapshot gives both attendees and organizers a first-of-its-king real-time view of leadership readiness in the age of AI. The snapshot uses an AI-driven diagnostic to help participants identify their current mindset and confidence level in applying emerging technologies to leadership, time management, and collaboration. Conference organizers can use the anonymized insights to understand trends across industries and guide future programming. New Technology Experiences Attendees will also experience two additional Cortex innovations: The AI Leadership Snapshot, designed for personalized insight and reflection. An AI Concierge, developed in collaboration with Randy Lowman of Laketurn Automation , trained on the conference's sessions and speakers to help attendees access insights, resources, and recordings on demand. "The next chapter of innovation belongs to the leaders who learn to co-think with AI - without losing what make them human" says Foster. "Today, access isn't the challenge. Discernment is. The best leaders are learning how to lead through the noise." Known for her engaging, practical, and human-centered approach, Foster's keynote will blend stories, humor, and real-time examples to help leaders master their time, build trust, and create lasting value with emerging technologies. As the creator of Time Mastery 2.0 , The AI Leader Brief , and The AI Strategic Leader Program , Foster continues to help organizations and executives adopt AI with clarity, purpose, and humanity. And yes - expect a brief cameo from "Lynda Borg," her futuristic digital persona that captures the message behind her work: the best leaders of tomorrow will evolve with technology while staying deeply human. About Cortex Leadership Consulting Cortex Leadership Consulting equips organizations and their leaders to thrive in times of transformation. Through customized coaching, interactive learning experiences, and AI-driven leadership tools, Cortex helps executives and teams master time, lead with clarity, and adopt the technologies shaping the future of work.
