Reset To Grow

RESET coaches executive leadership strategies to carve new revenue paths and ultimately achieve profitable, sustainable growth.

Director of Market Intelligence

As a seasoned founder, marketing expert, and real estate broker in Colorado, my journey has been anything but conventional. 

My obsessive brain & unorthodox approach has taken me down a beautiful but winding path. I've built companies, failed miserably, successfully exited, strategically advised startups and Fortune 500 companies, co-founded an environmental non-profit, and sat on a Colorado State environmental advisory board.

By day, I apply my strategic marketing acumen to drive growth for Silicon Valley tech companies. Outside office hours, my passion shifts to real estate, where I guide Coloradans in making informed decisions about residential and commercial property ownership.

And while my ventures evolve, my most cherished role remains — being a dad to two incredible kids.

Your revenue is growing.

Your leadership team isn't keeping pace.

You promoted them because they were exceptional at their job. 

But being good at a job and leading a team are completely different skills — and nobody taught them the difference.

So now they come to you for every decision. They micromanage or they disappear. 

Meetings go nowhere. Deadlines slip. And you — the founder — are still the one holding everything together.

You don't have time to train them. But you also can't keep doing everything yourself.

This is the leadership ceiling.

 And it's the real reason you can't scale past where you are.

I'm Leon. I've spent 26 years building leaders.

From managing cross-cultural organizations of 3,500 people to spending the last 8 years coaching founders of 7 and 8-figure brands — I've seen this same bottleneck across every industry, every stage of growth.
It's not a people problem. It's a leadership readiness problem.

Through REMODE, I work 1:1 with your 2–4 mid-level managers over 90 days and turn them from task-doers into leaders you can fully trust and delegate to.

Not through a course. Not through a framework on a slide deck. Through direct confrontation, deep reflection, and relentless repetition — until the identity shift from task-doer to leader is real and permanent.

The result is simple: 5+ hours back on your plate per week, per leader. 

A team that takes work off your desk instead of adding to it. 

A business you can finally step back from.

The math on weak leadership is brutal.

For a €10M brand, misaligned leadership costs €830K–€1.57M per year — in lost sales output, wasted payroll, and your best people walking out the door because of their manager.

REMODE for three leaders costs ~€27K. The ROI in year one: 15–30x.

This isn't an expense. It's the highest-leverage investment you can make.

Brands I've worked with in the past 18 months: €30M+ manicure brand · €20M+ skincare brand · €20M+ sleep brand · €10M+ supplements brand · €10M+ media agency.

80% of my clients extend beyond the initial 90 days. That number tells you everything you need to know.

This is for you if you have 10–50 employees, 2–4 managers who need to step up, and revenue that's growing faster than your leadership team can handle.

If you're ready to stop being the ceiling of your own company — let's talk.

No commitment. Just clarity on exactly where your leadership gaps are and what it would take to fix them.
