Step Into Leadership Confidence, Influence, and Career Growth ...

without overwhelm and burnout!

Finally a leadership community designed exclusively for middle managers who want to lead with clarity, get recognised, and grow their careers, without the stress and second-guessing.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You're caught between senior leaders' demands and your team's needs... and no one sees how much weight you're carrying

  • You’re constantly firefighting, juggling priorities, and second-guessing your decisions.

  • You've watched colleagues with less experience leapfrog ahead while you feel stuck.

  • You wonder, "Should leadership really feel this lonely, stressful and thank less?"

If this is you, you're not alone. Leading from the middle without guidance or support is one of the toughest jobs in business today.

Why You're Still Stuck...

Maybe you've tried to fix it by:

📚 Reading leadership books that sound good but don't stick in real life.

👩🏽‍💻 Attending one-off trainings that inspire you for a week, but then nothing changes.

🎧 Piecing together advice from blogs, podcasts, TEDs, and articles, hoping you'll figure it out on your own.

But here's the truth, all are good yet none of these give you practical tools, ongoing support, and community that understands the reality of middle management.

That's why I created Lead From The Middle Membership

✅ Influence up and lead down, without doubting yourself

Real Stories From Middle Managers Like You

The results speak for themselves. Here's how Lead From The Middle has helped managers just like you step into clarity, confidence and career growth.

"I finally stopped second-guessing myself."

“Before joining, I was constantly doubting every decision and feeling like I wasn’t cut out for leadership. The playbooks and coaching gave me clear steps, and now my team actually looks to me with confidence. I am more confident! I feel like a real leader.”

- Karen M., Operations Manager

"I got promoted within 6 months."

“I used to feel invisible at work. The membership helped me sharpen my communication to influence senior leadership. Six months in, I was offered a promotion I’d been chasing for a few years.”

- David R., Senior Project Manager

Return on investment

“Sally is one of those people whose insights are powerful and command attention. She has shifted my thinking. The result? I’ve found another hour in most days to focus on income-producing activities and created an extra 30% sales in only two months. What a return on the investment!”

- Ian Stephens CSP, Founder enRich

- Robin Dickinson, Consultant

Practical Tools

"Sally’s secret skill is to teach us practical tools to change our behaviours so we can increase our personal productivity and the productivity of the people we lead. Gone are the days where productivity is equated solely to time management. Sally has shown me how to better focus on the effectiveness of my efforts in order to be more productive, and therefore get more done! If you need help when it comes to your productivity, then I strongly suggest you speak to Sally."

"I don't have time."

That’s exactly why this membership was built. Each resource is quick, practical, and designed for managers with full calendars.

"What if it doesn't work for me?"

You’re in control. You can cancel anytime. The only real risk is staying stuck where you are.

About Sally Foley-Lewis

Hi, I’m Sally Foley-Lewis, and I know exactly what it’s like to be stuck in the middle juggling the expectations of senior leadership while trying to lead a team effectively.

With over two decades of leadership development experience, I’ve coached and mentored middle managers across industries to lead with confidence, execute with efficiency, and drive real results.

I’m a multi-award-winning Certified Speaking Professional (CSP), author of multiple books including The Productive Leader and Successful Feedback, and the creator of leadership frameworks like the "Burger Model for High-Performing Middle Managers" and the E.E.C.C.™ Feedback Formula.

I created The Middle Matters Membership to give middle managers the support, training, and confidence they need to thrive in their role and advance their careers without burning out.

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Join today and start leading with confidence!

Is this for new middle managers only?

No! Whether you’re new or experienced, this membership helps middle managers at all levels lead more effectively. There is something for everyone.

I've tried leadership training before - how is this different?

 This isn’t training—it’s a leadership development, networking and community with real-world strategies, live coaching, and ongoing support.

Will this membership help me get promoted?

While no program can guarantee a promotion, this membership will give you the leadership skills, confidence, and strategic insights to position yourself for career growth. You’ll learn how to increase your visibility, influence senior leaders, and demonstrate high-impact leadership—all key factors in career advancement.

How is this different from leadership books or free article?

Books give theory. This gives you practical, step-by-step tools plus coaching and peer support.

Can my company cover this?

Absolutely. It can easily be expensed through professional development budgets. Members have been given authority to pay via corporate card. [Cancel at any time.]

Can you give me more detail of what's inside the membership?

The membership is designed to fit into your busy schedule. Most resources are bite-sized, on-demand, and actionable, so you can learn at your own pace and apply what you need, when you need it.

What if I can't attend live sessions?

The coaching sessions will not be recorded, this is to ensure we respect privacy and create a safe space for middle managers to get to the heart of any issue, challenge or situation they wish to discuss.

Please prioritise these session so you get the value of the networking, support and insights from the whole group.
