HOW TO BECOME THE GIS LEADER EXECUTIVES TRUST AND TEAMS FOLLOW IN JUST 90 DAYS

Not sure where to start? This is your front door. A free training built specifically for GIS leaders — formal and informal — who are pulled toward something bigger and ready to lead with more intention, influence, and impact.

What you will discover:

  • The first shift GIS leaders must make to stop being seen as "just the map person" and start being recognized for the strategic value they bring.

  • Why so many capable GIS professionals stay stuck in reactive mode — always busy but rarely influential — and the simple leadership shift that changes that.

  • Why some GIS leaders grow influence faster than others, even inside systems that still underestimate GIS.

  • A real path for moving from technical expert to trusted strategic leader — without waiting for a bigger title or someone else's permission.

The three secrets covered:

  • See with Clarity — lead in layers, not pieces.

  • Scale with Systems — build influence without a louder voice or different personality.

  • Serve with Stewardship — grow your influence even when the system has not caught up yet.

  • "I couldn’t be happier with my experience! The workshop helped me set goals and to see my strengths. Discussing it out loud together as a group was something new for me, but it was good, and I felt vulnerable but safe. Izabela, our facilitator, was knowledgeable and caring. What I enjoyed the most was taking the survey and seeing the results, and then talking and setting goals together. I look forward to continuing this journey!”

    —Sharyll L.

  • “Izabela has mastered the form of approaching, discussing, and finding ways to resolve challenges that we each face in day-to-day life, whether at work or at home. Remarkably, through the creation of a caring and safe environment, participants are easily able to cut through the discomfort that is often associated with being vulnerable and quickly reap the benefits of Izabela's training. She empowers those around her to embark on a journey of self-reflection and effect change within themselves and their surroundings through constant encouragement and understanding. Izabela's realistic approach to the world around us gives depth to her lessons, inspires head-on confrontation of the difficult situations we face, and, for me personally, resulted in stepping towards my full potential as a professional in ways I hadn't thought possible before.”

    — Marie S.

  • “Izabela is incredibly relatable. She can relate to someone's experience. She speaks truthfully, softly, and compassionately to them. She genuinely empathizes with the person, their struggle, and their experience and can turn someone's thoughts to the positive. Her positive energy and attitude are contagious. I have not experienced this with others. It's not an over-the-top disposition but a calm, consistent, positive take on life and work. Her energy helps power people's ability to recognize and overcome their many challenges confidently.”

    — Paul G.

  • “It’s been such a pleasure getting to know you as a coach and becoming friends! I see the integrity, love, and playfulness you created for yourself. My life has been enriched and better for you being in it. So ... THANK YOU for being you!”

    — Ishwar

  • I appreciate the virtual call last week too. The whole transition from tech to leader is a whirlwind of emotions.

Beyond the Professional. Into the Personal.

Register for the Next Vision Workshop

GIS leadership is personal development — and always has been.

You cannot grow professionally without growing as a person. The frameworks in The Science of GIS Leadership address not just strategy and communication — they address identity, mindset, and the stories you carry about what you are capable of.

If you are ready to go deeper than professional leadership, the Vision Workshop is your next step.

A free monthly live session for anyone asking:

Is this the life I would actually choose?
