Trevor Blattner is the founder of Redefining the Top 1%. He promotes the concept of Shepherd Leadership—a modern form of leadership that encourages leaders of all sorts to guide, support, and uplift their people.
Shepherd Leadership is an enlightened approach that Trevor developed over 20 years of research, coaching, and expertise. It is a model that breaks free of the antiquated and regressive top-down style of leadership that has been seen for years as the only standard of leadership worth adopting.
From leading in the corporate and military world to leading in our day-to-day lives, Trevor does a deep dive into the qualities that exemplify the best leaders in the modern world.
These qualities include embracing radical responsibility, recognizing and optimizing your higher self, managing your ego and embracing authentic humility, strategically designing your reality, committing to mastery, being still and know, and adopting a growth mindset.

Powerful Quotes by Trevor Blattner
