Leadership Strategist | Lecturer | Creator of the Engaged Empathy Leadership Model™
I’m Jeff LeBlanc, DBA, a leadership strategist and full-time lecturer at Bentley University, where I’ve spent over a decade working with the next generation of professionals. As a first-generation college graduate, I’ve made it my mission to redefine what effective leadership looks like in today’s workplace.
I developed the Engaged Empathy Leadership Model™ (EELM™) to help organizations not only retain talent but create environments where employees thrive. The model is rooted in three core principles—Kindness, Structure, and Fairness—designed to build trust, drive engagement, and future-proof your leadership approach in an AI-driven world.
Helping organizations adapt to evolving workforce expectations and leadership preferences across generations.
A structured, research-informed framework that blends emotional intelligence with operational clarity to build high-trust teams.
Custom strategies to reduce disengagement and turnover while improving team performance and psychological safety.
Equipping leaders with the tools to manage, communicate with, and inspire Gen Z and multi-generational teams.
Aligning leadership behaviors with business goals to drive long-term resilience, adaptability, and success.
Interested in working together or bringing these strategies to your organization?
