We were leaders
before we are slaves.
Our leadership today creates a culture of self-centeredness, individualism, doubt, and competition. This is a perfect recipe for an inevitable organizational fall where everyone becomes a casualty. And, it's not the Filipino way of leadership.

Insights on Leadership
Our leadership insights are grounded on our original leadership philosophy.
Stepback Leadership Book Summary
This book paints an inspiring picture on how the so-called barbaric, naive, and uneducated ancient Filipino society has constructed and maintained a millennia-old magnificent edifice of elaborate beauty, which on the contrary speaks volumes of our great identity, unique leadership philosophy, and sustainable management ingenuity.
Culture transformation isn't an overnight magic
But when we look at our challenges as cultural, then we are in a better position to address the culture instead of the situation. Thus, most organizational problems are not situation in real nature. It's cultural.
The role of culture in leadership
Our indigenous people know who they are, where they stand, and what they represent (modern-day branding). They have identified, clarified, and solidified their culture so strong not even time was able to put them away.
The leadership ingenuity of the Filipinos
My argument is simple: It must have been impossible to build such an engineering marvel without any leadership philosophy and management system—an outright dismissal of the notion that "our ancestors were naive, barbaric, and uneducated."
How leaders get their people's attention
We must clearly realize that doing more all the time and at the same time doesn’t necessarily translate to productivity. If it does, just for how long?
Leadership and mutual respect
Mutual respect makes a lasting leadership. When people say it's lonely at the top, it only happens when you're alone at the top. Why not bring as many people as you can so you can all enjoy being on top?
Trust as a leadership strategy
A stepback leader knows that trust is the beginning of possibility. He, or she, knows that nothing great can ever be achieved without trust.
Leadership Speech for Motorcentral
"In leadership, there's a difference between leading and being followed. If you're leading, it means people rely on you. If you're simply being followed, it means they only comply with you."
The Truth About Leading in the Philippines
Chances are, our type of leadership today creates a culture of self-centeredness, individualism, doubt, and competition—a perfect recipe for an inevitable disaster where everyone becomes a casualty.
Confused leadership identity
Two tales of Filipino leadership happens at the same time. One, a display of Filipino ingenuity in Mercedez-Benz.
Subtle takeover of leadership
Stepback Leadership is a practice of putting the people at the center of leadership.
Nobody wins in competition
The front liner will never stop defending his place against the up-and-coming who will never stop wanting to take his place.
List of the Best Leadership Speakers in the Philippines
We've got to agree. There are hundred leadership speakers in the Philippines. Chances are, you've picked one who didn't live up to the hype of his profile. This article presents several ways on how be an expert leadership speaker.
The leader in beauty and brain
The Philippines is home to natural beauty. And we need not change that. We are naturally beautiful inside and out. Yet, we often feel lacking. Thus, ungrateful. We feel we're not enough. Then, we find ourselves wanting for more.
The Cession of the Philippines to the US
In 2018, the Philippines marked the 120th anniversary of the Treaty of Paris, the which the Spain ceded the Philippines to the US for $20M.

Real estate business landscape today is very competitive today. The growth of the industry has attracted people to venture into property selling.
Leadership Speaker Philippines
No single leader was ever identified for its creation. Why? Because, as it turned out, the people themselves were collectively the leader.
Apply our leadership philosophyStepback is a practice of putting the people at the center of leadership. This is the original leadership art of ancient Filipinos that built the world-famous Ifugao Rice Terraces. Leaders who subscribe to this concept think twice in applying western leadership and management ideology for cultural reason. |  Transform your organizationWe are committed to help you re-imagine your organizational potential. And then put all the work to rebuild your culture using our Stepback Leadership and Management System. Because we believe that leadership is a social process, our goal is to help you create a community within your company. |
Our culture dictates the behavior of people.

Why Stepback?
Stepback is the 2,000-year-old original leadership art of Filipinos. We hope to bring this lost art back to organizations. We believe that this can solve the modern challenges in leading and managing people even in our time.
What makes us think Stepback works
The effect of colonization of Spain, US, and Japanese left us with forgotten identity. We no longer know who we are as leaders. We use Western leadership and management concepts in our organization. Yet, we have our own unique leadership structure prior to Spanish invasion in 1521. In fact, this leadership structure built the popular Ifugao Rice Terraces. If we made it in the ancient times, we can make it today. We hope to introduce to your people how great we were back then. To regain this greatness is to assure greatness of your organization.

Using his in-depth study of the building of the 2,000-year-old Rice Terraces of the Philippine Cordilleras, which has been named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lloyd believes that great leaders are shaped and defined by three crucial steps they make for their people: (1) stepping in to educate them; (2) stepping back to delegate to them; and (3) stepping up to grow with them.
His discovery has been the cornerstone of organizational leadership programs in the areas of management, sales and marketing, business development, and innovation and change.
