We Believe Leadership Development Should Actually Change How People Lead.
Most organizations invest in leadership training.
Very few invest in what comes after.
That's the gap Inspired Action Leadership™ exists to close.
We're a leadership development company built on a simple but powerful belief: learning only counts when it sticks. Our work combines live experiences, weekly micro-learning, and group coaching into a connected approach that turns insight into the kind of action that outlasts any single training event.
Inspired Action Leadership™ is the front-facing brand of MindFit Coaching, Inc., a company that has spent more than 25 years in the room with leaders across industries, geographies, and organizational sizes. What we've built reflects everything we've learned about what actually makes leadership development work.
MISSION
To help emerging and established leaders build the self-awareness, human connection, and meaningful engagement that transforms not just how they perform, but how they show up.
VISION
A world where coach-centered leadership is the norm, not the exception. Where leaders listen more than they direct, ask more than they tell, and empower others to discover their own answers.
CORE VALUES
- Faith over fear
- Quality of life and work
- Passion for the human side of business
- Make a long-lasting impact
- BEST Philosophy: Better Every Single Time
The Three Pillars of Inspired Action Leadership™
ELEVATE PERSONAL AWARENESS
Take personal responsibility and ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and actions, so you can change the results you wish to obtain.
STRENGTHEN HUMAN CONNECTION
When people feel seen, heard, understood, and valued, it creates a sense of belonging and helps build trust.
INCREASE DYNAMIC ENGAGEMENT
When people trust each other, have clarity and purpose, and prioritize their well-being, productivity and resilience are the ultimate result.
WHO WE ARE
We are a team of ICF-credentialed coaches passionate about helping leaders achieve results personally and professionally.
WHAT WE DO
We design and deliver customized leadership development programs that help create positive, sustainable change and shape workplace culture.
Our goal is to champion a leadership approach that shifts organizations from a results-only mindset to a more human-centered, adaptable culture—one that builds trust, fosters autonomy, strengthens connection, and supports overall well-being, where both productivity and engagement can truly thrive.
- Live workshops and keynote experiences that spark awareness and human connection
- Weekly micro-lessons that fit into the real flow of work — not time away from it
- Monthly group coaching that turns what was learned into what gets applied
WHO WE WORK WITH
Our clients are HR and L&D leaders who are tired of training that doesn't transfer. Association directors and executives who want to give their member organizations something genuinely valuable.
Businesses, professional organizations, non-profits, government, and academia who understand that developing their people is the competitive edge they've been looking for.
If you're responsible for talent development inside your organization, or if you're accountable to a membership base that expects more, you're exactly who we built this for.

- Personal awareness
- Self-reflection
- Emotional self-regulation
- Courageous and clear communication
- Setting boundaries
- Work-life harmony
- Stronger relationships
- Confidence and clarity
- Intentionality
- Personal effectiveness
Inspired Action: The Leadership FOURcast™
We also host The Leadership FOURcast™ — a weekly podcast and video series that brings together leaders from across industries for candid, coach-centered conversations on the challenges that matter most. It's leadership development that respects your time: actionable insight in ten minutes or less.
Kyle Pertuis, PCC — Founder & Chief Experience Officer
25+ Years in Leadership Coaching | ICF Professional Certified Coach | Host, The Leadership FOURcast™
Kyle Pertuis founded MindFit Coaching on a belief he's held since his earliest days as an entrepreneur: when you invest in people, everything else follows.
With more than 25 years of experience as a Professional Certified Coach and Leadership Development Consultant, Kyle has worked with executives, emerging leaders, and high-performing teams at organizations including NASA, Toyota, UBS, Ameriprise Financial, and Washington University in St. Louis. His coaching spans industries and time zones, but the core of what he does has never changed.
He helps leaders see themselves more clearly, so they can show up more fully.
Kyle's approach is coach-centered at its core: he believes the best leaders don't have all the answers, they create the conditions for others to discover their own. That philosophy is woven into everything Inspired Action Leadership produces, from its live workshops to its weekly podcast conversations.
As host and co-creator of The Leadership FOURcast™, Kyle brings together three leaders per episode for candid, real-world conversations on the topics that keep leaders up at night. The result is one of the only leadership podcasts built specifically around collective wisdom, not individual expertise.
"He'd listen to what I was saying, and seemed to be able to comprehend at a level that I couldn't, and was able to coach me through... the issues that we had. I don't know that I've really ever had an experience like that."
Clark G., Private Wealth Advisor
"Kyle always brings a hand-on practical approach to solving problems and becoming a more well-rounded person and better team member."

Susanna Clavello, PCC — Chief Learning Officer
ICF Professional Certified Coach | Former Physician & Public Education Administrator | Top 15 Coach in San Antonio
Susanna Clavello came to leadership coaching through a path that most coaches never walk: medicine, public education administration, and a personal reckoning with what it actually costs to keep performing at the expense of your well-being.
That lived experience — the exhaustion, the re-calibration, the discovery of what sustainable high performance actually looks like — is what makes Susanna one of the most credible voices in coach-centered leadership development today. She's been recognized as a Top 15 Coach in San Antonio, and her work spans executive teams, organizational cultures, and the individuals inside them who are trying to figure out how to lead with both strength and wisdom.
As Chief Learning Officer at MindFit Coaching, Susanna designs the learning architecture behind everything the organization delivers. She brings a rare combination of clinical precision and deep human empathy to every program. She believes that the best leaders are made, not born, when they're given the right conditions to grow.
Susanna's work is grounded in Emotional Intelligence, and she is trained through the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (iPEC). She is the editor and producer of The Leadership FOURcast™, the builder of micro-lessons curriculum, and the co-designer of Inspired Action Leadership™ professional development experiences.
"Kyle has been a real inspiration to me personally and to my team. He has made drastic personal growth improvement seem attainable. He helps you work on the little things that lead to big results. The most amazing part about working with Kyle is his ability to help you think about and realize areas of personal improvement through questions and helping you hold yourself accountable to make the changes you want to make."
Mark C.
Beacon Center of Tennessee
"Kyle and MindFit taught me how to approach conversations or conflict with a win/win attitude and process. More specifically, Kyle helped me be more self aware of how I was approaching my boss with questions and requests. Since our training, my relationship has been much different with my boss and I believe he respects my opinions and requests. More importantly, it has changed my “view” on how to approach my boss and other co-workers so that I can relate my proposals for change in a win/win situation versus an attempt to changed their minds on something. This has greatly released myself tress level as I don’t feel like I have to “win” every conversation/proposal...”
