We need to fundamentally change how we value and empower our people in order to maximize results, innovation and productivity. Resiliency, agility and sustainable growth is not possible without superb leadership at every level. Surfaced from the secret world of submarines there is no better way to develop leaders than 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. Your organization will train and perform like true submariners.
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
90% of what is learned in training is forgotten in 30 days, it is called learning decay. This would be catastrophic on a submarine so we have surfaced the reinforcement process to ensure what is used is put into practice and becomes part of daily operations. No decay, The Submarine Way.

Create Masterminds
We often deliver our unique training while also developing internal trainers, we call them masterminds. One way to ensure training “sticks” is to have internal ownership of your ongoing professional development. Masterminds are one way of ensuring this.

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.
