H.E.L.P. is a
Holistic
Empowerment
Leadership
Program
Originally developed by Dr. Anne Friesen in order to empower survivors of interpersonal violence to become more self-sufficient. Today, H.E.L.P is used for both personal and team leadership development. H.E.L.P fosters and promotes a culture of empowerment and inclusion, while engaging and building high performing leaders and adaptive teams.
Self-sufficiency was defined in terms of four variables: financial empowerment, personal safety, self-esteem, and supportive relationships. Results of statistical analyses indicate that women exposed to HELP were more self-sufficient upon exiting the program than they had been when they entered. Results also indicated that women exposed to HELP were more self-sufficient upon exiting the program than were women that had not been exposed to HELP. Today, H.E.L.P has become an effective Transformational and Adaptive Leadership Development Program for both individuals and work teams.

Holistic
Holistic leadership is an approach to leadership that incorporates equal emphasis on the welfare of individuals’ minds, bodies, and souls. Holistic leaders are emotionally self-aware, adaptive, and authentically lead by aligning and integrating their values with their spiritual, emotional, and physical goals in their personal and/or professional lives.
Empowerment
The Empowerment Theory is grounded in the belief that victims, advocates, and responders of violence should have access to crisis intervention techniques, information, education, and other necessary social and economic support in order to make informed decisions resulting in safe and positive outcomes..
Leadership
Transformational and Adative Leadership is the ability to influence, support, and/or inspire with efficiency, through a lens of conviction. Effective leaders know when to delegate and when to defer. Effective personal leadership requires a commitment to improve one’s own self-awareness, self-image, and self-responsibilities.
