The Playbook That Got You Here Won’t Get You There

You’ve always succeeded by pushing harder, doing more, and holding yourself to a higher standard than everyone else.

That’s how you built your career.

But now the game is changing.

You’re leading larger teams.
Your decisions have bigger consequences.
Your calendar is packed.
Your visibility is constant.

And effort alone isn’t enough anymore.

You’re:
Stuck in execution mode instead of leading strategically
Doing too much yourself because delegation feels risky
Watching strategic priorities slip while you’re busy putting out fires
Running out of energy for the life you really want to live

You know there’s a better way.

Ready to build a better leadership system?

It’s time to start leading,
and living,
at the next level.

That’s why I built the Performance Evolution Framework — a six-month, high-performance leadership system for competitive professionals now operating in more senior leadership roles.

This framework is designed to help you:

  • Lead strategically instead of reactively

  • Build high-performing teams you can trust

  • Make confident, high-stakes decisions with more ease

  • Protect your time and energy

  • Build influence across the organization

  • Create a sustainable version of success

It’s not about grinding harder. It’s about competing smarter.

This is how high performers evolve into high-impact leaders.

MDT Leadership:
Built for Leaders Who Know How to Compete 

I’m Madeline Davis Tully — high-performance leadership coach, former Division I national champion coach and athlete, and founder of MDT Leadership.

For nearly two decades, I worked inside elite performance environments — as an All-American at Princeton and national team rower, and later as a Division I head coach leading championship programs.

Today, I coach high-performing leaders who bring that same competitive drive into the corporate world and are now operating in high-pressure, high-visibility roles.

My work blends performance psychology, strategic leadership, and elite sport principles to help ambitious professionals evolve into confident, influential leaders — without burning out or losing themselves along the way.
