WHAT IS ANALOG LEADERSHIP?

ALI™ is rooted in a simple concept :

Humans improve at leadership when they engage directly with challenging experiences.

  • The analog process demands deliberate, sequential engagement with tasks, people, and emotional environment¹.

  • Leaders must learn to pause, reflect, and examine their decisions, behaviors, and outcomes.

  • This approach is grounded in research on analog vs. digital leadership and experiential learning², informed by current doctoral research in I-O psychology.

WHY SAILING?

We embrace the sailboat as a living laboratory for leadership proven for millennia.

  • This constant interaction between environment and team mirrors the realities of organizational life, where leaders must guide people through change with clarity and trust while continuously learning how to improve³.

  • No sailing experience or recreational interest is required.

  • All programs are guided by USCG-certified captains.
