What Lighthouse Leadership does

Lighthouse Leadership is a private, founder-led leadership development and business consulting firm founded in 2012 by Doug Lundrigan, headquartered in Nampa, Idaho, with a team of fewer than 10 employees supplemented by vetted strategic partners. The company delivers four core "High Performance" workshop programs (Leadership, Strategy, Teamwork, Trust), an Emotional Intelligence curriculum, and a healthcare-business specialization, all accredited for Continuing Education Units by the University of Oklahoma. Its assessment suite — developed through a partnership with 360Solutions and spanning 10+ tools including Candidate Profile reports (8-18 pages), Emotional Intelligence, Leadership Potential, P60 personality, 360 Feedback, and aptitude tests — provides a scalable, lower-touch revenue stream alongside the firm's executive coaching practice, which is delivered through a proprietary 4-phase Lighthouse Coaching Model. A self-paced Change Management course on Udemy extends distribution into the global self-serve market.

The firm's go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting government agencies and healthcare organizations, with documented engagements at the US Army Corps of Engineers (Seattle and St. Louis districts), Port of Portland, City of Beaverton, Oregon Liquor Control Commission, Oregon Health Sciences University, Humana Hospitals, and a long historical roster of enterprise clients including AT&T, IBM, HP, Merck, P&G, Hallmark, and Eaton. Lighthouse augments its direct enterprise motion with content marketing (blog, white papers, YouTube, LinkedIn), email newsletters, and a free 32-topic Lunch & Learn program that serves as a top-of-funnel lead generator. Pricing is predominantly quote-based; only the individual Emotional Intelligence Assessment carries a published price ($24.50 promotional, $49.00 regular). The company is profitable in posture, privately held by the founder, has raised no institutional capital, and operates across at least 12 US states.
