About SUCCEED

Pioneering Leadership Education

Since its inception in October 2022, Succeed has been at the forefront of the education industry, striving to democratize leadership education. Recognizing the constraints faced by Startup Leaders - be it time, resources, or finances - we're here to offer affordable Leadership Skills Assessments to work on what matters.

Our Vision

We envision a world where nimble organizations, deeply rooted in sustainability and human values, spearhead transformative innovations. It's more than mere success – it's about merging purpose with humanity to sculpt a brighter future.

Our Mission

Our endeavor is to empower startup leaders, providing them with the Leadership Data to craft organizations that not only innovate but also tackle the world's most significant challenges. We equip leaders with the necessary data and insights to thrive and leave a lasting legacy.

Succeed’s Distinct Approach

We're not another education provider. Our unique Startup Leader Index allows startup managers and management teams to assess and reflect on their leadership strengths and areas for growth.

Our Core Values

People at the Heart:

For us, every action is an opportunity to enrich lives. By valuing and uplifting people, we fortify our business and sow seeds of genuine connections.

Embracing Imperfection:

We don't chase perfection. We embrace every learning opportunity, even if it comes from a misstep. It's this mindset that fuels our evolution and resilience.

Unity:

Unity isn't just strength; it's potential. Together, we unlock possibilities and solutions that were once beyond our reach.

Future Focused:

We're here for the long haul, with eyes fixed on the horizon. Our aim? To leave a mark that persists long after us, shaping the future of leadership education.

Drawing from the vast experience of our founder, Jens Heitland – the former Global Head of Innovation at IKEA Centres and an entrepreneurial maven – Succeed was born. His insights into the pitfalls of impersonal leadership and innovation paved the way for our unique approach.

Engage with Succeed

We're more than a startup; we're a community. Engage with us across major social media platforms, dive deep into discussions, or get insights from our YouTube channel and podcast, "Lead & SUCCEED".

We're entirely self-funded and eagerly seek partnerships that resonate with our mission.

Join the Revolution

At SUCCEED, our conviction is simple: superior leaders forge superior businesses. Be part of our journey to redefine leadership education.
