About Leadr

Leadr, Inc., established in 2019, offers a people development software platform designed to foster a culture of care and development within organizations. The company was co-founded by Chris Heaslip, Matt Tresidder, and Holly Tate, who brought together their experiences from various leadership and marketing roles to address common workplace challenges. Heaslip, previously the co-founder and CEO of Pushpay, and Tresidder, with his background in executive search and leadership consulting, identified a gap in the market for a tool that prioritizes employee development as a means to achieve better business outcomes. Holly Tate's expertise in marketing and leadership development has also been central to shaping Leadr's mission.

The firm operates in the human resource technology market, targeting organizations struggling with issues like employee disengagement, high turnover, and low productivity. Leadr's business model is based on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription, providing clients with a centralized digital workspace. This platform is designed to help managers lead more effectively by integrating several key functions into one place.

The core of Leadr's product is a suite of tools that facilitate continuous performance management and employee engagement. One of the primary features is the structured one-on-one meeting tool, which provides agendas and tracks action items to ensure consistent and productive conversations between managers and their direct reports. The platform also includes modules for goal setting and tracking, enabling alignment from executives down to individual employees. Additionally, it incorporates features for regular feedback and recognition, allowing for a more holistic view of employee performance and contribution. By consolidating these functions, Leadr aims to give executives visibility into their organization, create alignment for leaders, and provide clarity for employees, ultimately leading to improved performance and a healthier workplace culture.
