Modoras supports exponential growth by scaling key skills and leadership resilience
In the face of rapid expansion, financial services firm Modoras partnered with The Pillars to future-proof its leadership pipeline. With growth placing pressure on performance, decision-making, and cross-functional alignment, Modoras identified a critical need to equip emerging leaders with the self-mastery and resilience required to thrive in high-demand environments.

The Pillars Program; Work Deep Dive
Building performing resilient thriving growing teams for rapid growth
The Challenge
Modoras had ambitious growth targets following a period of strong market performance, team expansion, and acquisitions. But with that growth came increasing internal friction:
-
Teams were stretched thin across projects and changing responsibilities
-
New leaders had to navigate a fast-evolving environment
-
Decision fatigue, stress, and burnout risk were rising.
Future leaders were technically capable, but often lacked the personal clarity, emotional capacity, and consistency to lead with impact under pressure.
The Solution
Modoras integrated The Pillars Program as a foundational leadership accelerator across their emerging leader cohort. The program was embedded over a 12-month hybrid program including:
On-site Pillar Discovery workshop
1:1 coaching
Quarterly impact reviews
The program was designed to prepare future leaders taking the next step in their careers and setting them up for sustainable success.
Results
Measurable impact on all participants
All participants have shown significant improvements in wellbeing and their work capacity, which was reflected in survey results and performance reviews. Some participants have made significant career progress during the program.
Building capacity, reducing burnout
Without an exception, participants’ capacity ratings have continuously improved over time (35% in 6 months), while burnout propensity ratings have decreased by an average of 15% in the same time period.
Higher performance and better team dynamics
Be removing personal resistors and cultivating capacity, participants have accelerated their leadership capability development, resulting in enhanced performance and achieving organisational goals.
The Pillars focused on internal leadership (how to manage self) before external execution (how to manage others), setting participants up to take the next step in their leadership journeys.
The Performance Equation and clear blueprints gave the team clear guidance towards enhanced sustainable performance and directed development both in a personal and professional context.
Impact is directly measurable, benefiting both the participants by demonstrating progress and decision makers who can rely on both qualitative and quantitative metrics of success.
As Modoras continues its growth trajectory, The Pillars remains a strategic partner in shaping its leadership culture: One that thrives under pressure, leads with intention, and performs with integrity.
