We believe the era of humans adapting to old systems is ending.

Institutionalized leadership models stifle the natural ability of organizations and communities to self-organize and evolve.

We believe the era of humans adapting to old systems is ending.

Institutionalized leadership models stifle the natural ability of organizations and communities to self-organize and evolve. Visionary leaders of impact-driven brands understand that to live their mission, they must prepare for an increasingly complex future by transforming their organizations and their brands to be more inclusive, adaptable, and innovative.
Massive is a socially conscious strategic advisory firm built specifically for these visionary leaders. We guide them through the process of being liberated from old models and paradigms that are constraining, oppressive, and rigid. Our aim is to help organizations access collective intelligence and creativity, solve highly complex problems, and foster continual relevance while making a significant impact.

Led by Dr. Virginia Lacayo, our Intersectional Leadership model provides a meta-framework for transforming organizational leadership, culture, and behaviors. Intersectional Leadership combines three driving forces for organizational and societal transformation: equity-based leadership, mindset coaching, and complexity science. This approach empowers leaders to challenge conventional power dynamics, cultivate a new level of consciousness, and understand the intricate ways in which change occurs.
Led by Justin Foster, Ethos Conscious Branding integrates spirituality and consciousness into business practices. It focuses on principles of conscious branding and creating brand poetry over traditional marketing copy. This approach ensures that your brand communicates with integrity, transparency, and deep emotional resonance, fostering a meaningful connection with your audience.
At Massive, we believe in the power of visionary leadership and conscious branding to transform organizations and create a more just and sustainable future. Join us in this journey towards liberation and impactful change. Show less
