Russ works directly with high-performing executives, founders, and leadership teams on daily execution and organizational growth. He hosts the day live and curates its application activities.
Five new talks on changing what is not working, building your bench, multiplying your time, going from inspiration to execution, and leading for impact. Use them with your team that week.
Structured debriefs between talks, the official Live2Lead guidebook, and a personal action plan built from your own answers.
Share a table and a catered lunch with other founders, executives, and leaders, grouped by what you each said you want.

You sit through great talks. You write things down. On Monday the business needs you, and the notes stay in the bag.
The talk was never the hard part. Turning it into something your team does is.
This day is built around that second part.
The talks are the starting point. The day is what you do with them.
Russ hosts live and curates the application activities.
Before the event, you answer three short questions: what you most want to gain, your top leadership challenge, and who you most want to meet.
Your answers place you in a breakout group with the right people. They also feed your personal action plan, built from what you told us and from the day’s facilitated sessions.
You answer once. Your plan is drafted for you.
Your answers form your group and shape your plan. How your information is handled.
“Attending Live2Lead didn’t just inspire me—it realigned me. It reminded me of the kind of leader I want to be and gave me the clarity and courage to take action. I walked away with more than just notes. I left with a renewed vision for how I lead, serve, and grow.”
“I first attended Live2Lead at the onset of starting my business. I was scared, intimidated, and filled with doubt. But that year, Live2Lead ignited the “why” in me—it gave me the faith to believe, the courage to start, and the clarity to lead with purpose. It didn’t just launch my business - it launched me as a leader.”
Google reviews of Russ’s leadership coaching and training, shown as the reviewers wrote them.
Russell Simon will change how you lead forever. A natural teacher and powerful speaker. His empowering approach gives those he leads and teaches the tools to excel in their own leadership. Under his guidance you will increase your capacity to lead and inspire others - seeing situations from a different perspective, utilizing the skills he so adeptly teaches and helps you put into practice as you grow your leadership and your leadership team.
We initially brought in Russ Simon for a couple of leadership training sessions for our key employees, and it quickly became clear that his impact was too valuable to be limited to just a few meetings. As a result, we’ve decided to implement his leadership training program on a more permanent basis.
Russ is an extremely talented leader and mentor. His vast life experience, deep knowledge, and ability to recall and teach with clarity set him apart. He has an incredible memory and a remarkable way of connecting ideas, making his lessons both practical and memorable. His insights have been instrumental in helping our team grow as leaders, and his approach has resonated deeply with our employees.
If you’re looking for someone who can truly elevate your team’s leadership skills, I highly recommend Russ Simon. His training is not just informative—it’s transformative.
Russ masterfully blends his extensive knowledge with an astounding knack for understanding people creating a learning experience that is not only educational but impactful on the lives of those he works with. From my first experience with Russ, I was immediately impressed by his remarkable ability to give every ounce of his attention to whoever he is with. His genuine interest in whatever is being said is both connecting and validating. All of these skills culminate in an experience that is safe for all learning levels, immersive, and actually applicable to real-life scenarios. My teams beg to have him back and that is a request I’m happy to oblige!
