Hi. I'm Amy Pearl.
Thank you for exploring our supervisory training options.
I've dedicated my life to helping leaders build the skills and behaviors to create high performing teams and motivating workplaces. I'd love to help your team, too!
I created the frameworks in Launch Into Leadership over 3 decades, first, as a corporate gal working for a big bank and then, by coaching hundreds of professionals, from CEO's of multi-billion dollar companies to high potentials just starting out. I've gained a reputation as a no-nonsense yet fun-loving coach who asks thought-provoking questions and delivers actionable ideas.
Whether you have one supervisor or fifty, let's help them get started or boost their skills today!

amazing organizations including:
Here are the answers to some questions you might have...
How many supervisors can participate at one time?
You can include as many supervisors as you'd like, since our sessions are virtual. We use lots of breakouts rooms and other ways to engage your learners, so large groups are fine with us.
If you have just one supervisor, choose the One-on-One Learning program for one participant above.
If you have 2 or 3 participants, we can create a hybrid option. Schedule a call with Amy to talk about your needs.
Who is the ideal participant for Launch Into Leadership?
The ideal participant is a new or emerging supervisor who wants to build self-awareness, communication skills, performance management techniques, and other basic frameworks for success. More experienced, mid-level or senior leaders who need to refine their leadership habits or prepare for the next level in their careers would likely benefit from our more extensive one-on-one coaching engagements or our Lead Ignited program.
How do I know the frameworks taught in Launch Into Leadership will stick?
Our goal is to achieve your goals. So, we begin by meeting with you to understand your objectives. We encourage participants to meet with their supervisors following our sessions to share what they've learned and identify ways to implement their new frameworks on the job. Participants' managers receive a Manager's Toolkit outlining each session and providing coaching questions to build accountability and sustainability of the participants' new skills.
How are the sessions structured?
For our one-on-one participants, we typically schedule our sessions every 2-3 weeks. In between, they complete our online learning modules. This ensures they can manage the learning load, build new skills, and get personalized attention to address their unique needs.
For our group program, we typically schedule the one-hour learning sessions every two weeks spanning a four month period. This gives the participants time to practice their new skills in between. To expedite the program, we can double-up on topics by offering two hour sessions. We'll work to meet your scheduling needs.
What is the cost?
At Work Ignited, we recognize that the fee for our services is your investment in anticipation of higher levels of performance and ultimately, greater financial return. So we strive to offer our high quality service at a fair value.
The fee for the one-on-one learning option is $1,497 including coaching time, access to the online learning modules for one year, and the Everything DiSC Profile.
Group programs are priced based on the number of participants and the structure of the sessions. Schedule a call with Amy to talk about options.
Let's launch your leaders to success!
The best time to help your leaders succeed is today.
So many new and emerging leaders started working in the work-from-home/hybrid workplace era. As a result, they haven't had the exposure to high performing leaders or the time to dedicate to building their own supervisory skills. Now, they are scrambling (or relying on you) to manage day-to-day tasks, build accountability, and grow their teams.
I truly believe that there's never been a better (or more important) time to double down on building supervisory skills. Today's workforce is looking for supervisors who are fair, firm, and friendly. Your super-doers can be turned into super-supervisors in just a short time. They just need proven frameworks and an intentional learning process to build the habits that will lead to their success.
I want your supervisors to feel proud of what they accomplish and confident in what thet can achieve.
Let's chat to get Launch Into Leadership scheduled for your supervisors.

Employee Appreciation Gifts by DiSC Style
Employee Appreciation Gifts by DiSC Style
This year, give gifts with style!
One‑size‑fits‑all employee recognition is easy, but it rarely hits the mark. Our teams are made up of people with very different personalities, needs, and preferences and their Everything DiSC profiles give us a simple language for understanding what actually makes them feel appreciated. When we match our employee appreciation gifts and recognition to each DiSC style, we strengthen teamwork, boost engagement, and create a more genuinely motivating work experience.
Over the years, I’ve watched leaders struggle with Employee Appreciation Week. They want to do something meaningful, but they end up handing out the same gift card or snack basket to everyone and hoping it lands. Recently, I worked with a client who decided to use her team’s DiSC profiles to guide her gift-giving strategy, and the difference was incredible. I watched a true sense of feeling appreciated come over each team member as they opened their gifts. And, they couldn't wait to see what their colleagues received. The conversation around recognition turned into a powerful team building moment instead of an awkward check‑the‑box activity. That experience inspired me to pull together these DiSC‑based gift and recognition ideas you can use with your own team.
Gift Giving Made Easy
Click here to view 12 gifts that I've sorted by DiSC style to make it easy for you to shop. Each includes a link right to Amazon so you can order, personalize, and ship your gifts in just a few minutes.
Employee Appreciation Week starts on March 2nd. So don't delay!
Keep reading to learn why this is important and for more ideas.
Why use Everything DiSC for employee appreciation?
Using Everything DiSC for employee appreciation helps you move beyond generic praise and align recognition with what each person values most at work. DiSC profiles highlight whether someone is more driven by results, relationships, stability, or quality, which gives you a practical roadmap for choosing gifts, recognition messages, and team building activities that actually resonate. When employees feel seen in this way, teamwork improves because people feel respected for their unique strengths, not just their work.
How do I use DiSC styles to pick better employee appreciation gifts?
Use www.catalyst.everythingdisc.com or your own DiSC Profile report to think about each employee’s primary DiSC style. Do they demonstrate Dominance (direct, decisive, and goal-oriented), influence (energetic, idea-generators, and relationship-oriented), Steadiness (helpful, patient, and team-oriented), or Conscientiousness (high standards, analytical, and quality-minded)? Then, use the Appreciation Checklist below to choose:
One gift idea that fits their style
One personalized experience to show appreciation
One short message you can say or write
This keeps your recognition simple, personalized, and aligned with both DiSC insights and your broader trust and team building goals.
Appreciation Checklist:
Choose a gift, a personalized experience, and a message based on your team member's DiSC Style

How can I use DiSC for team building, not just gifts?
Everything DiSC is also a powerful tool for team building and improving workplace culture, not just for gift‑giving moments. One quick exercise is to use Everything DiSC on Catalyst to create a group profile for your team, and review your composite DiSC map together; then use the conversation starters to talk about how your team’s mix of styles influences communication, decision‑making, and collaboration. This turns Employee Appreciation Week into an opportunity to strengthen relationships and build a shared language for how you work together.
Here are the action steps:
Log on to www.catalyst.everythingdisc.com.
Click on Groups and then, Create Group to build your team’s composite DiSC profile.
In your next team meeting, click on Group Insights to explore your team’s map.
Use the Conversation Starters to talk about how you can make better decisions and communicate more clearly as a team.
Employee Appreciation Week Starts March 2nd!
There's just a few short weeks to get your employee appreciation ideas together. Email me at [email protected] to let me know your creative and personalized gift ideas!
