This is nxtgenldr. The leadership channel for Gen Z and young millennials who want to make waves, not just clock in.
You’re not here to be managed
You’re here to lead
Your way
With your voice
On your terms
I’m Alisdair — a Gen X leadership coach with 20+ years of experience training execs, entrepreneurs, and changemakers. I’ve seen what works (and what definitely doesn’t) when it comes to leading with confidence, purpose, and impact.
This site is all about giving you the tools, mindset, and real-talk strategies to lead in YOUR way — without selling out, burning out, or getting stuck in corporate blah-blah.
But here’s the truth: Leadership is broken.
It’s time for a new wave. You’re it.
nxtgenldr is here for you - to give you the tools, confidence, and mindset to take the mic, call the shots, and lead with purpose — not just power.
You’ll get:
-
Real-world leadership skills (minus the corporate jargon)
-
Influence, communication & confidence hacks
-
Creator-style content for the future of work
-
Straight-up guidance from someone who’s been where you’re heading
If you’re ready to stop waiting for permission and start shaping the future — welcome.
Your voice. Your power. Your time.
You’re the future — I’m just here to back you.
Let's talk about you
Every Gen Z’er has the potential to be a NxtGenLdr—because leadership today isn’t about job titles, status, or background.
It doesn’t matter what you do or where you’ve come from—at some point, you’ll step into a leadership role, whether it’s at work, in your community, online, or among your friends.
NxtGenLdr is here to give you the mindset, skills, and confidence to lead when it counts. If you care, challenge, and want to grow—you’re already one of us. Let’s go.
