The Venned Group partners with CEOs, COOs, and executive teams to close the gap between strategic vision and what your organization actually delivers, at every level of leadership.
You’ve bought leadership training before. The session was fun but the behaviour didn’t change. We do things differently to drive the day’s main objective: see results. We diagnose, build for your organization specifically, and partner to see results stick. Every engagement is scoped, structured, and managed so a large rollout lands the same way the first conversation promised.
From our flagship cohort program to a single high-stakes day, every engagement turns executive intent into the way your teams actually operate.
A structured program designed for middle managers to give them the tools, habits, and decision rules to build trust, handle hard moments, and move work with clear ownership.
A focused session on the one thing costing your team most right now, built for your industry and your people.
Time away that surfaces what your team needs to focus on most, settles it into decision rules, and sends everyone home with commitments that turn into behaviours.
One concentrated day for a senior team that needs to break through on something specific, fast.
A talk that names what the room feels and rarely says, built to land with executives who’ve sat through the other kind.
Private, one-on-one coaching engagements for senior executives and high-potential leaders who are ready to close the gap between where they are and where their role demands them to be.
How an engagement runs, start to finish. The first move depends on what your organization needs, so it changes from one client to the next.
A focused conversation about where execution breaks, how leadership is structured, and what the business is trying to do. The next step might be our S.P.A.R.K. Assessment, 1:1 interviews, or time in the room with your team. We diagnose before we design, every time.
We build the right engagement for what we found, shaped to your industry, your culture, your budget, and the decisions your leaders need to handle differently.
Your leaders learn from each other and take time to apply the new skills, so they stick ‘in the wild’ and don’t just stay in the boardroom.
We re-engage your senior leaders with feedback and clear next steps so the change keeps showing up in how work gets done.
A clear, low-friction path from identifying the problem to building the leadership capability your organization needs at scale.
We assess leadership dynamics, communication gaps, and execution barriers through targeted discovery, aligning senior leaders and managers around real operational challenges.
We build a tailored leadership experience using proven frameworks, selectively incorporating tools like SPARK where relevant to your organization’s needs.
We work directly with middle managers to strengthen communication, accountability, and decision-making so strategy translates into consistent, measurable execution.
We re-engage senior leaders with insights, feedback, and clear recommendations to support adoption, sustain behavior change, and drive long-term organizational performance.
A clear, low-friction path from identifying the problem to building the leadership capability your organization needs at scale.
A focused 30-minute conversation to understand your organization’s execution challenges, leadership structure, and growth goals.
We diagnose your leadership gaps with precision. You receive a clear picture of where your team is and what’s holding your strategy back.
We design the right program, whether that’s SPARK, workshops, or a full OD partnership, matched exactly to your team’s needs.
Your leaders return to work differently. Strategy moves faster. Accountability becomes a culture, not a conversation.
The business has outgrown how your team makes calls. You’re the bottleneck on decisions that should never reach you, and it costs you every week in escalations, slower deals, and talent that leaves quietly.
We focus on the leadership layer that can carry the room without you will. The work centres on the people translating strategy into action, usually Directors to VPs who’ve been in their role a few years. Capable, experienced, delivering, and never trained in the people side of leadership. That’s where execution drifts.
We’re selective about who we partner with, because the work only succeeds when an organization actually wants the change. If you want a box checked, there are cheaper options. If you want lasting results, let’s talk.

Based on 29 reviews Wonderful faciliation and exceptional learning experience. Great on the job insights and take aways. Maureen Wheeler This was one of the best half-day workshops I've had in a while. During this short time Kendra and her team gave us actionable ways we can work together that plays on our strengths. We also got to see how we work together as an organization. A very packed, and hands-on agenda. Desiree Sylvestre Kendra and Laura are amazing. They created a space that was engaging, structured, and genuinely productive, while still allowing for open discussion and collaboration. Their ability to guide conversations, keep the group focused, and draw out meaningful insights made a real impact. The session was both energizing and actionable, and I would highly recommend them to any team looking for thoughtful, effective facilitation. Susan Panza Fantastic development training for our team! Kendra had clearly done her homework, knew our business, knew what our needs were and where we wanted to take the team, and adapted on the fly like a champ to help our team feel comfortable, engaged, and start their growth with a bang! We'll definitely be continuing to work with The Venned Group! Dave St. Laurent We engaged Kendra to lead a half-day session during our Management Offsite. Her facilitation was professional, highly engaging, and effective. Kendra quickly assessed our team’s dynamics and focused the session on practical, high-leverage frameworks that address our strategic needs. She successfully delivered actionable insights using structured decision frameworks that focus on clarity and role optimization. Kendra demonstrated impressive flexibility and professionalism throughout the entire process, from planning to live facilitation - navigating tight timelines and moving parts. Her experience, subject matter expertise, and engaging delivery style ensured full commitment from all participants. We highly recommend Kendra & The Venned Group to any organization seeking to optimize execution pathways and accelerate its progress toward strategic goals. Elena Van Kendra is an exceptional facilitator and leadership partner. She brought clarity, warmth, and tremendous insight to our session, helping our Leadership Team have meaningful, honest, and future-focused conversations. Her ability to quickly understand our organisation, guide us through complex topics, and draw out thoughtful contributions from everyone was truly impressive. It’s clear she can add real value to our organisation, and we’ll be doing a lot more work with her as we continue our transformation. I highly recommend Kendra and The Venned Group to any organisation looking to strengthen leadership capability and drive meaningful change. Susan Cully Kendra is a truly exceptional facilitator. She led our recent training session with clarity, warmth and professionalism. She made the entire process smooth and enjoyable, even with a tight timeline. Kendra is organized, thoughtful and incredibly easy to work with, she's truly a positive impact on our event. Would highly recommend her to any team looking for supportive and engaging facilitator. Lynn Hoang As a small business, Kendra and the Venned Group's advise and consulting was invaluable to us, helping with streamlined communication as we scale. Communication from both management to and from front line workers provided immediate production boosts! Can't recommend the team more, and would HAPPILY use again, and plan to in the future. Great job Kendra! Steve Monteith Can’t say enough good things about Venned, Kendra and the team. Very insightful sessions with thoughtful presenters and good facilitation. Anyone who uses professional communication for work and even those who want to grow personally will benefit from the programs. Adam Hijazi Great event with an inspiring panel and skilled organizer/moderator. Kendra is so authentic and off script that it makes the discussion very effective and dynamic. An effective networking event topped off yummy nibbles and drinks. A must attend. Tarek Sabra
