Dominic Longo’s commitment to human flourishing, in its many forms, drives his work in leadership development and diversity, equity, and inclusion.
Several years ago, he founded Flourishing Gays as a social enterprise to bring LGBTQ+ perspectives to leadership development and executive coaching. His affiliation with Cultivating Leadership grew out of a need to better understand adult development as he designed the flagship program of Flourishing Gays, called Heroes Journey, a leadership program customized specifically for highly accomplished gay, bi, and queer men.
The Growth Edge Coaching courses and the Leading Inclusively Lab through CL contributed not only to his work with clients but also to his ongoing personal journey of re-discovering what’s weird and wonderful about himself.

About the course
Coaching, Leading, and Living Inclusively: Gender, Sex, and the Body builds participants’ capacities to be present to diverse human experiences of our bodies, erotic energies, and relationships to gender.
Building these capacities begins with a reflective turn to ourselves and our own personal experiences and identities. Only by gaining perspective on our own gender, sexual energies and identities, and bodies can we possibly be present to our clients in these dimensions.
This program immerses participants in queer culture. It’s like a virtual study abroad experience in “the land of gay.” Plenary sessions are experiential, featuring interactive sessions with a diverse set of guest speakers, reflective and practical exercises, and ample opportunity to practice coaching as new awareness is built.
Drawing on adult development theory and the Heroes Journey program from Flourishing Gays, Coaching, Leading, and Living Inclusively explores the developmental journeys of gay, bi, and queer men, as a pathway into gaining new perspectives on gender and sexual identities as they intersect with cultural, racial, religious, and other social identities.
This program is coach training and leadership development that expands both professional capacities and possibilities for life. It is open to learners of all social identities, and specifically aims to meet the learning needs of straight and LGBTQ+ participants alike.
