Giving the Gift of Growth This Holiday Season

Dear Readers,

As we enter the holiday season—a time filled with lights, laughter, and festivities—remember that the most meaningful gifts leaders can offer are not measured by their price tags. Instead, they’re the thoughtful gestures that uplift others: the trust we extend, the opportunities we provide for growth, the recognition we share, and the encouragement we give when challenges arise.

At Giant Leap Consulting, we know that courageous leadership involves more than directing; it’s about gifting your team with belief in their abilities, freedom to explore new ideas, and the confidence to stretch beyond comfort zones. These intangible gifts create a workplace culture where people feel valued, empowered, and ready to take bold leaps forward.

This holiday season, let’s commit to giving the kind of gifts that help our teams feel seen, heard, and inspired—both now and in the year ahead.

Here’s to leading with generosity and heart,

Bill T.

Giant Leap Consulting is excited to share that?Bill Treasurer has created a series of high-impact, bite-sized leadership lessons on YouTube.

Don’t miss this opportunity to take bold steps toward strengthening your leadership potential!

There’s a certain inevitability to leadership – no matter how high you climb. The view from the top is exhilarating at first—the accolades, the accomplishments, the recognition—but what happens when the climb slows, when the thrill of the ascent gives way to something far less glamorous? For those who’ve been at the top of their game for a while, the inevitable truth is this: cresting happens. And when it does, it’s not just about the shift in your role, it’s about the shift in how you see the world and your place in it.

Ever felt that inner tug of war—one part of you pushing to step forward while another part keeps you rooted to the spot? Who hasn’t, right? Over the years, we’ve helped countless leaders take that giant leap, and learned that courage isn’t only key to our own growth, but also to guiding others toward greater possibilities.

That’s why Giant Leap Consulting is so excited to share The Courage Gap, the new book by Bill's longtime friend and fellow “courage catalyst,” Dr. Margie Warrell. Margie and Bill have known each other since 2008, when they both published their first books on courage. Since then, they’ve been kindred spirits on this journey—dedicating their lives and careers to helping people tap into their bravest selves.

If Bill's work has resonated with you, Margie’s insights will provide a powerful complement. In a world of uncertainty and disruption, her practical tools show us how to close the gap between where we are and where we want to be. We highly recommend you pick up a copy of The Courage Gap. Inside, you’ll find invaluable guidance for bringing your boldest, most courageous self to your biggest challenges and loftiest goals.

One of our clients is running 4 cohorts through The Leadership Essentials Academy (LEA) in 2025. It will be an online/virtual/in-person combo! Participants progress through LEA on their own, then attend a virtual check-in with me at the midway point, then attend a full-day workshop in person. The client drew so much value from the pilot in 2023, that they are running 4 cohorts in 2025!
