We need to fundamentally change how we value and empower our people. Surfaced from the secret world of submarines there is a better way to develop leaders at all levels, it is the Submarine Way.
How We Do It
Training & Advising
We build inclusive leaders through mission-oriented, inclusion focus and talent-based virtual or on-site partnering. . The key lies in our unique approach.
Create Masterminds
We can deliver our material or many of our clients like to train and certify masterminds from their organizations on our material.
Keynotes That Inspire
Our keynotes start the journey from good to great. Inspire but also learn the tangible steps to better teaming, inclusion and leadership, learned under the oceans.
Learning & Reinforcement
We are often asked what makes us different. it could be the submarine leadership, the published patent, but likely it is our emphasis on reinforcement, from pre-reading our books, to on-line reinforcement we reinforce every new idea until it is muscle memory.

ABOUT US
We are changing the world
In 2016, a Keynote speech in South Carolina, to 400 business and community leaders caused such a deep, emotional, "we need to do something with this" reaction that our founder and President, Deb Cake Fortin, was moved to act.
Deb left corporate America and wrote what would become the best selling book, Diversity and Inclusion The Submarine Way. She refined the companies focus, rebranded it as the Submarine Way and success for our clients has been the measurable result.
