Excelle knows that emotionally intelligent leadership drives success

How We Excelle

Excelle Collective is a curated group of women in leadership — seeking the personal and professional self-care women desperately need yet are too busy to create.

Excelle Coaching prioritizes the development of emotionally intelligent leadership as an essential skill that leads to professional success.

Excelle Transition empowers Board Leadership to focus on the essential relationship-building that is critical for the leadership longevity of women into headship within independent schools. 

“I believe this work begins with intentional relationship building - and I am thrilled that our collective meets a profound need for women in leadership to connect and feel seen. ”

Our Story:
Amanda Riegel, CEO & Founder

Being a confident woman at this stage means that I pay more attention to my instincts about emotional intelligence. I am wary of women who are threatened by other strong women, and I am drawn almost immediately to women who are vulnerable. In fact, I see vulnerability as an essential currency in relationships, allowing people to breathe a sigh of relief when they can be raw and unfiltered. 

Transparency and trust are essential, yet unfortunately not universal for women in leadership.

Anyone can ask, “How do you want to show up as a leader?” Excelle listens AND gives you the tools to make it happen.
