Creating Life-Changing Success Through People
Since day one, Leadership Resources has been on a mission to transform people and set them up for success. We’ve all had those unforgettable leaders, both good and bad, who have shaped us into who we are today. We believe in the profound impact of great leaders and the lasting ripple effect they create.
Our founder, Boyd Ober, has lived his passion for coaching his entire life. Before guiding professionals, he was mentoring classmates, family friends, and his three children. Leadership Resources was being built long before its official launch in 2003. Decades later, our commitment to creating transformational success for others burns brighter than ever, grounded in intentional, lasting relationships with our clients.

How would I know that I need your services?
If you’re experiencing uncomfortable growth, preparing for a change in leadership, navigating significant organizational changes, or aiming to shift focus to working on the business rather than in it, our services are tailored to meet your needs. We specialize in guiding organizations through these critical transitions, ensuring stability, efficiency, and continued success.

What’s the difference between an Operational System and Strategic Planning?
Think of a map versus GPS. Strategic planning is like defining your company’s long-term direction, envisioning up to 5 years ahead. It’s your guide, your vision for the future. An operating system, on the other hand, is what you rely on to execute that plan. It’s the engine that drives you forward, ensuring your vision becomes reality.
Why is strategic planning important?
How do you know you’re working on the right things? Strategic planning is the body of a car, and your team is the engine. Even with a world-class engine, the car isn’t going anywhere without a strategic plan. It’s your roadmap, guiding every move and ensuring you stay on track. Without it, even the best team can lose direction.
What is leadership development?
Leadership development isn’t just a one-off training session or workshop. It’s a lifelong adventure in rethinking your mindset and actions. It’s about constantly evolving, pushing boundaries, and striving to be better every day. Embrace the journey and watch yourself grow into the leader you’re meant to be.
Where are your clients located?
We’re based in Lincoln, Nebraska and primarily serve small to medium-sized businesses throughout the Midwest. However, we also work nationwide with clients ranging from Florida, Michigan, Arizona, Utah, and beyond.
What does Leadership Resources actually do?
We help you run your business the way you’ve always wanted — bridging the gap between strategy and execution. Using the Accelerate Operating System, we define your goals and map out how to reach them. Then, we work with your leaders to build high-performing teams that get the job done.
What sets you apart from others in the Leadership Development industry?
At our core, we distinguish between transactional and transformational change. We believe leadership development is akin to mastering any skill—effective through consistent, spaced repetition over time, ensuring lasting impact based on research-backed methods.
Which industries do you specialize in?
Leadership and strategic planning are crucial across all industries. While our services are industry-agnostic, some of the sectors we frequently work with include Construction, Staffing, Higher Education, Financial Services, Medical/Dental, and Retail.
How does an outside resource add value to our organization in this process?
External consultants provide a fresh, unbiased perspective on challenges and opportunities. Their independence from internal politics and culture enables them to offer impartial feedback and hold your team accountable effectively.
