collabbWAY Leadership Models

Frameworks that help organisations and leaders lead, design, and change differently

collabbWAY leadership models translate relational leadership into everyday leadership practices. Each model provides leaders and organisations with a shared language and clear tools for navigating behaviour, culture and change. Grounded in behavioural insight, lived leadership experience and real workplace dynamics, these frameworks help teams move from intention to action and from conversation to meaningful results.

The Relational Leadership Method

At the heart of collabbWAY is the Relational Leadership Method. It is a leadership framework built around six leadership lenses and twenty-seven relational micro-skills that help leaders navigate the human side of leadership.

The method focuses on the everyday leadership moments where relationships, behaviour and pressure intersect. Rather than relying on theory alone, the method provides practical micro-skills leaders can apply immediately in conversations, decision-making and team dynamics.

The collabbWAY models translate this method into practical leadership tools used across organisations and teams.

How it works

collabbWAY Models are designed to scale — from individual coaching conversations to organisation-wide change. They integrate across leadership levels, giving everyone a straightforward way to connect, communicate, and co-create progress. Use them to:

  • Strengthen leadership capability

  • Align culture and strategy

  • Embed sustainable change

  • Build collaborative systems and teams.

Why they work

collabbWAY leadership models work because they focus on the part of leadership that shapes everyday outcomes – relationships, attitude and behaviour. Most leadership frameworks focus on strategy, structure or performance systems.

While these matter, the success of any organisation is ultimately shaped by how people interact, communicate and make decisions together.

The collabbWAY models translate relational leadership into practical leadership actions.
