Jason Barger and his team works with organizations who are passionate about developing their people, culture, service and clarity of mission, vision and values for the future.
He founded Step Back Leadership Consulting LLC to provide consulting, leadership training, interactive workshops, facilitated retreats, keynote speeches and resources for distance learning that engage the minds and hearts of your people.
LEADERSHIP TRAINING WITH A FOCUS ON ENGAGEMENT & CULTURE
The most effective leaders, teams and organizations in the world Step Back to move forward. We live and work in times where only 23% of employees say they trust their leadership and future direction of their organization and only 20% feel connected to their organizational culture, yet 90% say that is exactly what they want (Gallup). The best leaders, teams and organizations realize they must have an intentional strategy for developing leaders, culture and clarity of mission, vision and values. Employees who feel valued buy in to the core values of the organization and have a clear vision for WHY, WHERE and HOW they are going to travel into the future.
In a world that is more busy than effective, the best leaders understand that growing and developing an organization takes intentional focus and action. They are committed to engaging the minds and hearts of their people. Step Back Leadership Consulting is passionate about this work.
A trait of the most successful leaders, teams and organizations are the ones who engage the minds and hearts of their members. They proactively create experiences for their people to grow, learn, develop and operate out of their core strengths.
Teams and organizations that focus and develop the strengths and leadership of their members remove disengagement almost entirely: from 22 out of 100 disengaged members on average, to an average of 1 out of 100 members (Gallup Organization, Strengths Assessment, 2010).
Culture is defined by the way we think, act and interact. It’s dynamic, and it’s always changing. Step Back Leadership Consulting implements the 6 A Process For Leading Organizational Change to help teams set the temperature they want for their culture.
Why? Because the most successful teams and organizations on the planet are conscious about articulating their mission. They bring clarity to their core values and develop clear language to describe the leadership attributes their organization needs to be successful. They create experiences for their members to learn, practice and develop the actions necessary to bring their core values to life. They focus relentlessly on how their people interact. They understand that culture is created one person and one action at a time.
True culture change occurs for an individual, team, or organization because of focus and disciplined action.
Most change initiatives fail because we are moving too quickly, aren’t able to give our full attention to the areas in need, aren’t clear about the vision for how we want things to be different, and/or not able to stay disciplined enough over time to see the change through. Step Back to move forward. Leadership training through development and culture-shaping is not a “drive thru” experience. It takes a commitment to a continuous process of development, vision, communication, engagement, authenticity, and action. Change happens one small action at a time. Step Back Leadership Consulting LLC designs processes for individuals, teams, and organizations that fit their unique needs and objectives. Processes are congruent with years of research, study, and guiding principles.
CALIBRATE YOUR THERMOSTAT WITH JASON AND TEAM
Leadership training through development and culture shaping is not a drive-thru experience. The very best leaders, teams and organizations commit to an ongoing ethic of developing their people and culture.
An ongoing relationship with a facilitator allows for authentic interactions and increases the effectiveness and long-term sustainability. Based on identified needs of each organization, Step Back Leadership Consulting LLC designs and leads processes that partner with the organization’s staff to strengthen the leadership, culture and clarity of mission and vision for their team. A plethora of styles are designed to anchor the learnings within the culture, including keynote speeches, workshops, team discussions, online programs for distance learning, etc.

Step Back Leadership Consulting LLC facilitates engaging and interactive workshops that expand on Jason Barger’s keynote speaking topics as well as provides tailored leadership training experiences for teams focused on:
Jason highlights the key leadership mindsets behind every significant impact that is made in the world by individuals, teams, organizations, and communities: clarity, inclusivity, agility, grit, rest, and ownership. As Jason shares, our mindsets and actions impact everything.
Servant Leadership is about giving energy and care to others and a mission greater than self. The best cultures breathe oxygen into the mindsets of their people in alignment with their values. Jason Barger’s work and spirit continue to give energy to me and countless teams in the world.
There is a common desire to be part of something larger than ourselves. In a team setting, culture is the glue that brings together like minded individuals, for better or worse. Perennial losing cultures have indifference to communication, accountability, and grit. Strong winning cultures promote these values as the lifeblood of their journey. Jason Barger’s proactive spirit and message is foundational.
Positive leadership and positive cultures are needed more than ever. There are people who breathe life into every relationship, room, and team, and also those who steal the oxygen and energy. Thanks to Jason for breathing good oxygen into others!
Jason created and facilitated customized leadership development programs for high potential executives and senior leaders and for entry level leaders across all functional areas. He has a unique ability to identify how to focus on leadership competencies and values of the company while creating lasting learning. Jason’s high level of integrity shows through in all of his engagements from brainstorming, to program development, to facilitating and measuring success. Jason is a true game changer.
I highly recommend Jason for any large or small group leadership training, keynote speaking, and cultural change development.
