Welcome to The Unshaken Leader
I spent over 30 years learning to lead others before discovering that the hardest person to lead was myself. Welcome to The Unshaken Leader, where seasoned leaders find the courage to undertake their inner work first.
If you're a seasoned leader, you understand the weight of responsibility. You've made tough decisions, built teams, and navigated complex challenges. However, I discovered that leading others and leading yourself are interconnected. You can't give what you don't have.
The best strategic thinking, culture building, and team leadership all flow from leaders who have done the inner work first. You're ready for leadership that starts from the inside out, where personal mastery and professional excellence work together.
The Unshaken Leader bridges that gap, providing battle-tested insights where personal mastery meets professional excellence. Through weekly newsletters, exclusive digital content, and leadership courses, you'll discover how to:
Develop the inner stillness that makes your external leadership more powerful
Transform challenges and setbacks into strategic wisdom
Build authentic organizational cultures rooted in integrity
Lead with principle when systems around you prioritize expedience
Whether you're facing strategic challenges, building teams, or confronting personal obstacles that affect your leadership, you'll find practical frameworks grounded in real experience, not just theory.
I'm Corey New, and my leadership journey spans over three decades from military command to executive leadership. As a West Point graduate, I led troops through multiple combat deployments, commanded the Department of Defense's largest distribution operation, which employed over 3,000 personnel, and transitioned to senior executive roles in the private sector.
But my most important leadership lessons came from the battles you don't see on a resume. Surviving cancer as a young officer. Facing complex PTSD that forced me to confront wounds I didn't know I carried. Making difficult choices that required standing alone when principle collided with convenience.
These experiences taught me that authentic leadership isn't about avoiding difficulty, but rather about finding your center within it. Today, as an ICF-Certified Executive Coach, I help others discover what I learned the hard way: that our greatest struggles become our most outstanding teachers.
Leaders I've worked with consistently report transformational results:
"Corey is by far the best leader I have ever had the honor of working for. He transformed our team into a well-oiled machine, able to adapt to any situation we came across." — Financial Advisor & Former Team Member
"He consistently demonstrates the ability to listen to differing viewpoints, clarify the complex, and act decisively with confidence while displaying humility." — Business Principal & Former Direct Report
"This work has given me a framework to think about challenges as opportunities for experimentation, learning, and growth." — Executive Coaching Client
