Better Leaders. Stronger Teams. Better Results.
We help leaders and teams recognise what is driving how they show up, change the patterns getting in the way, and make conscious choices that create better performance, stronger cultures and lasting results.
Knowing what to do is not enough. Who you choose to BE when it matters is what changes the result.

WELCOME!
WE ARE Dr ELIZABETH AND CHRISTINE
At WALT Institute, we bring more than five decades of combined expertise across leadership, research, psychology, neuroscience, elite sport and human performance.
Led by Dr Elizabeth Pritchard, professional speaker, best-selling author, researcher and leadership coach, and Christine Burns, former elite athlete, best-selling author and Ultimate Performance Coach, we work with leaders, teams and organisations around the world.
We go beneath behaviour to identify and change the patterns that influence how people lead, communicate and perform, especially when pressure, change and uncertainty arrive.
The result is stronger leaders, higher-performing teams and organisations that keep their best people, reduce costs and create better results.
Who you have been does not determine who you choose to BE next.

Find out the 'How To' strategies to elevate your leadership.
In The Authentic Leadership Playbook, Dr. Elizabeth Pritchard and Christine Burns redefine leadership from the inside out. Blending neuroscience, psychology, and over 50 years of combined experience coaching global leaders, they reveal a simple but radical truth:
True leadership begins with who you BE, not just what you DO.
This is not another leadership checklist. Designed for C-Suite executives and managers, through to team leaders, entrepreneurs, and informal people leaders, it’s a practical, science-backed guide to becoming the kind of leader people trust, follow, and remember.
Read It Together.
Change Everything.
A book read alone sits on a shelf. A book read together shifts a team.
The free Team Reading Guide gives your people a 7-week structure to work through The Authentic Leadership Playbook collectively. Discussion questions for every stage of the BE DO HAVE framework. Real conversations. Real change.
