What Turning Point Training & Development LLC does

Turning Point Training & Development LLC is a privately-held leadership development and workforce training consultancy founded in 2019 by Mary Ricketts and headquartered at 8101 College Boulevard, Suite 100, Overland Park, Kansas. The firm delivers executive coaching, new manager training, team development, and organizational transformation services to businesses, public agencies, and institutions across the United States, with an industry-agnostic approach spanning healthcare, manufacturing, technology, financial services, higher education, nonprofits, and government. Target buyer segments include senior leaders, mid-level managers, new and emerging leaders, HR/people leaders, and small business owners.

The company's core offerings include the Seamless Transitions program (a 12-week new manager training curriculum priced at $5,000 per participant for virtual delivery), the Empower360 Leadership Development Collective (a $297/month group coaching subscription for women leaders), and the Impact360 Leadership Assessment (a proprietary diagnostic tool). Service delivery spans in-person workshops, virtual sessions, and self-paced online courses distributed through a third-party learning management system (New Zenler). The operating team is small (1–10 employees) and uses a consultative sales motion anchored on free discovery calls booked via Calendly, supplemented by content marketing through a blog, LinkedIn ads, and the 'Scale Up & Grow!' podcast.

The company generates revenue through a mix of one-time training licenses, recurring coaching subscriptions, professional services engagements, and self-paced course sales. It is a founder-controlled entity with no disclosed external funding, no parent company, no subsidiaries, and no institutional investors. Marketing emphasizes proven outcomes, real-world case studies, and follow-up coaching for accountability, with the Impact360 assessment positioned as a proprietary differentiator across the coaching and team development service line.

Broad incumbents

• Skillsoft: Large-scale corporate learning and leadership development content provider with leadership tracks, coaching, and an enterprise LMS. Comparable to Turning Point on leadership training content and delivery, but as a broad incumbent selling to large enterprises.
• Korn Ferry: Global organizational consulting firm with a large Leadership Development and Coaching practice. Comparable to Turning Point on enterprise leadership development and coaching, but operating at vastly greater scale and as part of a broader talent consulting portfolio.
• FranklinCovey: One of the largest scaled providers of leadership, management, and organizational performance training (e.g., 'The 7 Habits'). Directly comparable as a corporate leadership development vendor, but operating at significantly larger scale and brand recognition than Turning Point.
• Development Dimensions International (DDI): Global leadership development firm offering assessments, training, and coaching for managers and executives. Comparable to Turning Point across the full leadership lifecycle, but at much greater scale and with proprietary assessment platforms.

Emerging players

• CoachHub: Global digital coaching platform focused on enterprise leadership and manager development with a coach marketplace and learning content. Overlaps with Turning Point's coaching and new manager training offerings, primarily competing in EMEA and APAC.

• Zenger Folkman: Leadership development firm built around strengths-based leadership assessments, training, and coaching. Comparable to Turning Point on the assessment-plus-coaching playbook and on enterprise training delivery.
• Center for Creative Leadership (CCL): Nonprofit research-backed provider of executive leadership programs, assessments, and coaching. Highly comparable on coaching, assessment (Impact360 maps to CCL's assessment portfolio), and customized leadership development engagements.
