Upward Mindset

Upward Mindset is a professional coaching and leadership development brand that helps organizations and individuals improve communication, strengthen relationships, and achieve better results. Led by Steven Lozada, the company focuses on reducing “conversational poverty” in the workplace—the unclear or ineffective communication that can hinder employee engagement, leadership, and business performance.

Its services include executive coaching to help leaders make measurable improvements in behaviors identified by their stakeholders, and team coaching designed to improve team performance, decision-making, and execution. Upward Mindset also offers behavioral assessments covering DISC, motivators, emotional intelligence, and conflict styles. These tools help participants understand their leadership qualities, motivations, and communication patterns.

The company’s training and workshops use interactive, experiential learning in online and in-person settings. Participants practice skills in a supportive environment and build confidence to apply them at work and in their personal relationships. Across its coaching, assessments, and learning programs, Upward Mindset aims to support leadership growth, employee engagement, stronger connections, and results that matter to clients and organizations.
