Helping leadership teams spot and shift the patterns that make work harder than it needs to be.

A leadership advisory led by Whitney Siders, known for surfacing what teams feel but haven’t named to interrupt the default ways of working.

“The Modern is quite literally a better, more modern approach to offsite experiences. We are operating as a united team, have a whole new structure in how we are collaborating and tracking progress, and we are staying on track for the priorities we have outlined.”

Creating Space For Leaders To:

  • Build Awareness
    Reflect, think differently, and investigate challenge areas

  • Deepen Understanding
    Expose the root cause, not just symptoms, of what's holding you back (known + unknown)

  • Accelerate Progress
    Build momentum based in strategy and intention rather than reactivity

The Results?

  • Aligned Teams

    We teach you how to foster deeper trust and collaboration - and move faster because of it.

  • Connected Leaders

    We facilitate bold 1:1 and team conversations that strengthen confidence and movement.

  • Innovative Solutions

    We challenge your thinking to clarify action that delivers meaningful metrics.

Why Patterns Matter

Most leadership work focuses on strategy, skills, or execution. We focus on the patterns underneath that quietly determine whether either one actually works.

Great leadership isn’t about knowing more. It’s about seeing what’s actually happening when pressure is high, and responding differently.

The Modern emerged from years of working alongside leadership teams navigating alignment gaps, decision fatigue, and the subtle dynamics that make even the most capable people work harder than they should have to.

Over time, the pattern became clear: when teams can see what’s really driving their dynamics, they can shift how they lead, decide, and move forward together.

The Work

The Modern Experiences

Offsite meetings for executive teams, strategy work, and skill workshops for teams who understand the power in the pause.

  • Leadership retreats and offsites facilitated by Whitney to help you get the real issues on the table — and get your leadership rowing in the same direction (towards the same thing).

    Whether this involves building your strategy, unpacking recurring challenges, and/or fusing a new or evolving team, this potent experience allows you to be the participant and leave with renewed energy and commitment.

  • Single and recurring skill building workshops for professional development groups and rising leaders that tap into outside expertise and peer learning. It's time to rethink your average webinar.

The Modern Development Pathways

Tailored 1:1 executive coaching and small group cohorts for leaders who want space to think, guidance as they grow, and practical tools with accountability to lead smarter and level up.

  • Personalized coaching sessions designed to enhance your awareness and equip you with the understanding and tools to level up.

  • Small group cohorts curated based on the current leadership landscape, your organization's challenges, and unique individual skill needs.

The Modern Assessments

Behavioral assessments for more precise hiring and team development. This is for leadership teams who want to better leverage strengths across their team, and HR leaders and hiring managers who are tired of wasting time and money on a “bad hire”.

  • Stop hiring based on traditional interview questions and intuition alone. Leverage data behavior insights to better inform interview questions, hiring, onboarding and training.

  • Are you fully tapping into the strengths across your team? Operate in full lock step - with more ease and energy as a team. Gain the understanding and language to move like a Navy SEAL team.

Whitney has spent over a decade working alongside leadership teams navigating growth, transition, and high-stakes moments.

Across industries, the patterns repeat...even when the context looks different.

The Path to Clarity:

Root Cause Matters

Misalignment. Uncertainty. Overwhelm.

Teams are swirling. Progress stalls. Energy drains.

Sound familiar?

This is where The Modern becomes your catalyst for real change.

The difference?

We help you pinpoint and solve the root cause, not just treat the symptoms.

That’s how you unlock meaningful, sustainable change.

You've outgrown the general leadership advice and surface level coaching.
There’s misalignment beneath the surface...and you can feel it.

What you need is a pattern interrupt.
A new lens. A partner who will guide, challenge, and hold up the mirror for you where it matters most.

We’re that partner. And we’re ready when you are.

Often, leaders call us when:

  • The usual playbook stops working

  • They feel it - something's off, but it's hard to name

  • Progress is stalling or the team is spinning

  • Internal training isn't moving the needle

  • They need outside eyes, real talk, and accountability

The Difference Isn’t the Tools. It’s the Guide.

The Modern doesn't provide just a leadership coaching. We are a pattern-breaker. A translator of team dynamics.

And a trusted advisor who knows when to coach — and when to call it like it is.


Why companies call us in:

  • They’ve outgrown surface-level coaching

  • There’s hidden misalignment — and no one’s saying it

  • They’re scaling fast and leadership can’t keep up

  • Internal training hasn’t moved the needle

  • They need outside eyes, real talk, and a shift

You need real alignment — the kind that turns trust into traction.

At The Modern, we help executive teams and HR leaders solve what’s really slowing them down: misalignment, unspoken tension, and team dynamics no one’s naming.

We don’t do fluff.
We don’t do offsites for optics.
We deliver behavior-driven strategy

that gets to the root and moves your team forward — fast.

Whether through:

  • DNA Assessments that bring clarity to hiring and team fit,

  • Team Development that builds trust and accountability, or

  • Leadership Offsites that realign and refocus decision-makers...

The result is always the same:

Aligned leaders. Honest conversations. And momentum you can feel.

Most solutions scratch the surface. We go deeper.

The Modern will help you identify, understand, and solve what’s really holding your team back.

We don’t do fluff or check the box.

We don’t do it for optics.

We dive head first into the behavioral patterns, leadership misalignments, and trust gaps that keep teams from performing (and feeling) their best. Teams who have recognized this as an advantage, move forward with:

Faster, sharper decision-making

Confidence backed by behavioral insight, not history or guesswork

Intention and true alignment that creates noticeably different results

Kind words from teams we’ve empowered

If work feels harder than it needs to be...

We start by uncovering what’s actually going on.
