Leland and Lumon Unite to Refine the Workforce: A New Era of Employee Calibration Begins
Leland is proud to partner with Lumon Industries to offer personalized coaching and professional development to all employees – severed or non-severed – supporting growth, emotional refinement, and workplace harmony in alignment with Kier’s values.

Today, Leland is humbled, per Kier’s design, to announce a strategic partnership with Lumon Industries, marking a new chapter in our joint mission to promote professional development, emotional refinement, and the cultivation of a well-oriented and harmonious workforce.
Through this collaboration, Lumon employees will gain access to world-class coaching, content, and courses – all carefully tailored to support growth within the unique parameters of their workplace structure. Whether on the severed or non-severed floor, this initiative reflects our shared belief that every version of you deserves to grow.
On the partnership, John Koelliker, Founder/CEO of Leland, remarked:
“Growth is a moral imperative. With Lumon, we’re creating a future where every employee is fully optimized, spiritually calibrated, and emotionally simplified. That’s the power of coaching.”
This partnership arrives at a moment of renewed focus inside Lumon, following a series of high-profile restructuring efforts, departmental realignments, and morale recalibrations. With Leland’s guidance, employees can expect structured support across key performance domains, many of which are classified, experimental, or in direct conflict with their Outie’s values.
At Leland, we believe in meeting individuals where they are – even if they don’t know where that is. We’re honored to align with Lumon’s values of Vision, Verve, Probity, and Wiles, and we look forward to a long and fruitful collaboration. Kier willing, this partnership will last in perpetuity.
One Lumon employee and an alumnus of the coaching program, Seth Milchik, commented, "Once adrift in the fog of vocational ambiguity, I have now been refined into a paragon of optimized ambition. My potential is no longer a question; it is an immutable decree. For this apotheosis, I offer my unswerving fealty to Kier, the goats, and now Leland."
Together, we are pioneering the future of coaching by herding the workforce, taming the four tempers, and aligning productivity with purpose. Become your best self, even if you don’t know who that is. Or especially if you don’t.
