What’s in Store for 2026 for Centrivity
January 2026
One of the best-kept secrets of leadership is that successful leaders put their teammates in the best position to succeed.
But how do we know what positions are best suited for our teammates?
So, how will you unlock your competitive advantage?
As a leader, it might often feel like your job is to understand your teammates even better than they know themselves. You’re often stuck guessing and trying out new tactics without a plan. You may even shift strategies mid-way through the quarter, and scramble to get results.
What if you could more naturally “get” your teammates over time?
A team that understands each teammate’s strengths, habits, and weaknesses, will create an unstoppable force: a competitive advantage in any environment.
Wiley’s just-released 2025 People Development Insights confirm what many of us have felt this year:
“Across all our findings, one truth rose above the rest: organizations thrive when people do. In a year marked by rapid change, complex debates about work models, and tighter-than-ever resources, human-centered leadership became the bedrock of performance.”
Here are just a few stats from the report:
• 61% of teams avoid addressing conflict
• 62% say they don’t fully understand the decisions being made
• Only 31% say they receive feedback in a way that helps them grow
At Centrivity, we work with organizations to close these exact gaps—developing confident, self-aware leaders who can:
• Navigate conflict productively
• Communicate decisions with clarity
• Create a culture where feedback is normalized, not avoided
We do this through practical, people-centered learning experiences—using tools like DiSC®, Catalyst, and The Five Behaviors®—woven into coaching, facilitation, and blended learning programs.
These programs and tools continue to create positive impact and transformation with our clients:
“Our work with Erin and the team at Centrivity has transformed how our leaders and colleagues communicate, collaborate, and build trust across multiple clinics.
We’re seeing stronger alignment, greater confidence in decision-making, and an improved ability to prioritize in a fast-paced, often chaotic environment.”
If you’re beginning to map out your 2026 people development priorities—whether for one team or your full leadership group—let’s talk.
There’s no limit to what we can build together to keep our work human-centred.
