Why Vertical Strategies?
‍
‍In contemplating originating Vertical Strategies we were faced with a similar question - what sets us apart? The theory of Veridical Development¹ (which is where we can credit our name in part) theorizes that in order to develop upward, versus staying in the horizontal, a person must operate in a more complex way of thinking. This way of thinking operates at a higher level of cognitive and emotional sophistication based on a healed nervous system. Those operating in this vertical mindset rise above stressors to effectively navigate them, have shifted their perspective to see failures as opportunities, and operate in the mindset of thriving versus merely surviving. Those operating on the vertical exhibit a high level of emotional intelligence, psychological flexibility and humility. All leaders and individuals are gifted in their own right but those who have scaled the vertical accent and who are most apt to providing direction are those who have risen above their insecurities, limitations and are driven by wholehearted purpose. Most importantly, the theory emphasizes that everyone has the capacity to change their vertical altitude.

I have a gift for truly discerning a situation as a whole, coming up with feasible, often simple, solutions, and have a keen ability to identify patterns and the roots of issues. I have obtained many valuable insights about myself through deep self-evaluations (please ask me about my silent retreat!) and have honed the ability to overcome hard obstacles.

This is what sets Vertical Strategies apart - we help change your perception to one that runs vertically. Some may call me exuberant, but this personality trait allows me to shine my countenance of light where others may only see loss. By doing this, I illuminate overlooked potential and flip the script, making what you once thought to be a defect into a strength.
