About The Leadership Cornerstone Group
Great leadership isn’t about titles — it’s about trust, clarity, and action.
At The Leadership Cornerstone Group, we help leaders build on seven timeless cornerstones so they can inspire teams, strengthen culture, and deliver lasting results.
Who We Are
At The Leadership Cornerstone Group, we believe leadership isn’t about titles, hierarchy, or personality — it’s about building a foundation strong enough to carry both people and performance.
Our mission is simple: to help leaders rise with clarity, confidence, and purpose. We partner with individuals and organizations to transform managers into leaders others want to follow.
Our Framework:
The Seven Cornerstones of Leadership
True leadership is anchored in timeless principles. That’s why our entire approach is built on seven essential cornerstones:
-
Integrity — Leading with honesty and trust.
-
Communication — Creating clarity and connection.
-
Respect — Valuing people and perspectives.
-
Reliability — Following through and earning confidence.
-
Stewardship — Caring for people, resources, and culture.
-
Accountability — Owning outcomes and building trust.
-
Empowerment — Building strong teams and letting them thrive.
These cornerstones are more than concepts — they’re practical tools. When leaders strengthen them, they create environments where teams feel safe, inspired, and motivated to perform at their best.
Our Services
Each program is tailored to help leaders identify where they stand today and the steps needed to grow into the leaders their people deserve.
Meet the Founder
The Leadership Cornerstone Group was founded by Jason Whitley, a leader with over 25 years of experience guiding teams, developing talent, and driving organizational success.
Jason has seen firsthand how the right leadership can elevate teams — and how unprepared leaders can stall growth, hurt morale, and cost organizations dearly. His passion for leadership development was born out of a belief that no one should be left to “figure it out - alone" when they step into leadership.
Through decades of experience across industries, Jason has combined his practical expertise with research-based frameworks to create The Leadership Cornerstone Group — a place where emerging and struggling leaders can gain the clarity, confidence, and tools they need to succeed.
Why This Matters
Leadership isn’t just about business outcomes. It’s about people. Every decision, every conversation, every habit ripples outward — shaping culture, performance, and lives.
That’s why we exist. Because when leaders get better, everyone wins — the teams, the organization, and the leader themselves.
