Lead with Queer Integrity
A leadership approach rooted in purpose, ethics, and self-mastery for LGBTQ+ change-makers.
👋 Hi, I’m Darren.
I’m a leadership coach, writer, and philosopher-guide for LGBTQ+ leaders who want to create meaningful change — without compromising who they are.
My work blends behavioural neuroscience, Taoist self-mastery, and queer theory to support you in becoming the most aligned, courageous version of yourself.
Because leading with integrity means living what you stand for — and I’m here to help you do exactly that.
You care deeply and you’re already doing important work.
But something’s not working. You might be:
- Navigating one injustice after another without focusing on the one thing that will make a real and lasting difference.
- Questioning how to inspire others to take action for the kind of social evolution you want to see in the world.
- Trying to lead with compassion and conviction, but losing your peace of mind in the process.
What if the very qualities that make you queer are also your greatest leadership strengths?
When you lead with queer integrity, you commit to a kind of leadership that’s reflective, grounded, and courageously your own.
- It’s not about following someone else’s model of leadership. It’s about becoming more of you—with clarity, conviction, and purpose.
- Nor is it about supporting every cause, or meeting everyone’s expectations which only dilutes your impact.
Here’s what’s possible when you commit to leading with queer integrity:
- You clarify your one core message—what you stand for—and why it matters.
- You create an approach that reflects your deepest values and convictions.
- You find the methods of communication and leadership that feel authentic.
- You lead with confidence—without compromising your well-being.
- And you inspire others by embodying the change you believe in.
