Strategic Leadership Coaching is coaching with a specific, targeted goal in mind.

With each client we create a development plan, similar to a business plan, detailing critical actions that will have the greatest strategic impact on personal effectiveness and company success.

Over the course of six to eighteen months, we team with you to execute your development plan, providing advice, feedback, and access to resources that increase your leadership edge.

Executive Transition Coaching

The Executive Transition Coaching Program increases the success of senior executive transitions and shortens the time it takes new leaders to achieve measurable results.

Executive transitions offer an opportunity to significantly increase business performance.

Often, selective strengthening of your management team is necessary for successful change. However, regardless whether you hire from outside or promote from within your company, the ability of your newly positioned executives to rapidly take charge of their roles - with appropriate authority and accountability - is critical to achieving the positive early results you need.

This program is one of the best insurance policies you can obtain for your investment in your new executive.

According to the Center for Creative Leadership, more than 40% of senior executives fail within their first 18 months in a new position. The net cost to a company, for this kind of failure, ranges from 20 to 40 times the executive's salary.*

This integrated program includes:

• Identifying success criteria
  
  
• Clarifying expectations of key stakeholders
  
  
• Creating a communication plan to gain team
  support and buy-in
  
  
• Identifying intermediate objectives and
  timeframes to build momentum
  
  
• Designing a renewable 60 day action plan with
  specific tactics to achieve key objectives rapidly
  
  
• Effective teambuilding - ensure that your people
  are in the right roles
  
  
• Establishing mechanisms to provide ongoing
  assessment and feedback
  
  

We identify and address both expectations and potential barriers to achieve a higher success rate for transitioning leaders.

Executive Team Coaching

An optimally functioning senior team is one of the few remaining competitive advantages available to any organization. Yet each senior team is different, depending on its function and expectations, and the personalities involved.

We work directly with you to make your management team more effective and your organization more productive. Executive Team Coaching addresses current business issues within the context of the team, prevents time-wasting, increases the exchange of unfiltered information and opinions, and improves accountability.

The Executive Team Coaching Program includes:

• Interviews with team members and key stakeholders
  
  
• Immersion into team functioning
  
  
• Clarification of roles and expectations
  
  
• Identification of hidden ambivalence, groupthink, and other
  barriers to effective team functioning
  
  
• Development of strategy and tactics for optimizing team
  performance, based on the team's current functioning,
  the leader's objectives, and the personalities involved.

The Executive Team Coaching program promotes greater cross-functional collaboration and more effective decision-making - critical elements for effective execution of strategy.

Optimizing executive team dynamics is a significant undertaking; however, if you have the foresight and commitment to address this issue, you will be rewarded with an organization that sustains significantly higher levels of performance.
