Healthy teams, brilliant leadership.
Something needs to change in how we approach work, leadership, and collaboration. Most organisations try to solve problems by fixing people, processes, or an isolated workshop with the hopes of fixing culture challenges.
But culture is a living system and performs exactly as the culture and relationships allow. Everybody is actively participating or ignoring the issues, and everyone becomes complicit. No team is more complicit than the top team.
It is possible to create working systems where retention, innovation, decision speed, succession strength, and inclusion are all direct outcomes of the quality of leadership relationships.
Ready to repair the leadership systems beneath culture dysfunction?
If politics, mistrust, conflict avoidance, or unhealthy competition are slowing your organisation down, the issue is rarely capability.
It is usually the quality of relationships, behaviours, and belief systems that exist.
We help senior teams replace politics with alignment, fear with trust, and competition with collaborative performance.
When trust rises, performance follows.
At 3wh, we do things differently. With direct leadership experience ourselves, facilitating teams to develop together for decades, we are organisational systems coaches and we have the tools, assessments, and skills to create spaces to explore, grow, and rise in alignment.
Whether you want to transform your own leadership style or build a high-performing culture within your company, we can partner with you.

"The 2020s is one of those decades that will go down in history as defining, momentous and significant. Its impact on people’s lives is still yet to be written, but one thing for sure is this will be the decade when GenX and the Xennials will come into their own.
This new kind of leader is LeaderX and they will pioneer a complete change in corporate culture and the way we do
business. This book is your call to arms to step up, take the control and lead with impact.

About Lucy Barkas
Leadership is in my DNA. Sitting in my Fathers Boardroom as a 10 year old, to becoming head girl at 16, and taking my first management role at 22, I have always been fascinated in team dynamics, leadership, and why people behave the way they do. I successfully built healthy, autonomous, successful teams, and learned as much through my failures as my successes.
After years leading and climbing the career ladder, I founded 3WH in 2014, noticing a recurring theme. People were achieving success on paper, but they lacked genuine fulfilment. Too often, traditional models ignored what truly matters, aligning with purpose, developing self-awareness, and nurturing an environment where everyone's strengths are valued. I then wrote LeaderX and the 5 MYs methodology was born with the belief that true leadership requires both heart and intelligence. I built my coaching qualifications and experience to reflect this vision.
