Are you ready to move from stuck to success?
it’s a relational thing
I empower leaders to garner buy-in and sparking action, ultimately encouraging others to impact their respective spheres of influence, causing impact to flourish.
The outcome of relational leadership is for both individuals and organizations to thrive.
Work shouldn’t be a “four-letter word,” BUT instead it should inspire, challenge, and fulfill all participants.
Let’s…
Build strategic common ground
Communicate effectively with all stakeholders
Strengthen leadership communication
Streamline ops
Let’s work together to empower leaders worth following!
Wendy F. Adams, CFRE
Why
Driven by my faith and love of Jesus Christ, and demonstrating HIS love to others, it’s a daily joy for me to cultivate relationships that connect communities with sustainable impact.
Consequently, after 25 years in the business world, including over 12 years as a nonprofit leader, a decade as an entrepreneur, and 100% of the time working with people, I concluded that, “Houston, we have a problem”—a leadership problem, that is.
So, after walking alongside my mama during her 11-month battle with pancreatic cancer, and receiving her blessing before leaving this earth, to utilize my talents, gifts, and abilities to serve more leaders out from behind the desk of one organization, in July 2023, I launched Cultivate for Good, to empower leaders to reach their highest potential. To become relational leaders worth following…a leader that others want to follow versus one they have to follow.
Too often, there is misalignment, inconsistency, and overall lack of clarity in message and mission. This creates an unhealthy organization culture consisting of confusion, distrust, and miscommunication. As leaders, we are either driving progress or we’re the ones driving the problem.
I enjoy traveling to explore new places, spending intentional time with family (which is not defined by DNA alone), firing up the smoker, and capturing beauty through photography. I am reminded daily, through the hills and valleys of this faith adventure called life…I have been commissioned to further a journey of kindness, integrity, and accountability. I am a RELATIONAL LEADER!
What
- Relational leadership connects mission to movement with compassionate accountability at its core.
- It’s not just about making decisions – it’s about setting the tone for the entire organization.
- It means bringing high challenge and high support, creating clarity instead of chaos – which is what builds strong teams and a thriving culture.
- It’s making hard decisions with integrity and creating an environment where people feel valued and supported – not just managed.
- Because you can’t pour from an empty cup. And if you’re not leading from a healthy place, your organization won’t be healthy either.

- 1-on-1 single session (pick-my-brain)
