Our Origins

The Brkthru Origins:
A Meta-Revolution in Leadership

In 1997, Aldem and Vanessa Salvaña launched a quiet revolution built on a high-stakes truth: Performance is never a results problem; it’s a design flaw in the Inner Game. Armed with this singular conviction, they committed to mastering the cognitive mechanics of breakthrough—long before they ever sought the permission to lead others. This foundational integrity is what birthed Brkthru.

This foundational integrity birthed the Servant Leadership Training Center (SLTC) in 1999. They spent years absorbing and teaching the wisdom of Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits and Maxwell’s Laws of Leadership... Today, Brkthru has served over 500 organizations, transforming rigid hierarchies into humane, self-actualizing ecosystems.
