Business Owners and Corporate Leaders are on an island.

Employees rely on the certainty of their leaders for their job security and for the comfort and security of their families. For this reason, leaders most often feel they need to maintain a calm, forward-facing attitude of confidence and certainty to ensure they do not telegraph fear or indecisiveness.

Leaders typically feel they can’t take their most challenging problems home because their significant others either don’t understand them or are tired of hearing about them. Nor can they take them to their direct report leaders because they have their own challenges and may want their job.

And lastly, leaders often feel uncomfortable going to their board (if they have a board) when they feel stuck or out of ideas because they were hired for their ideas. These are the comments and sentiments we often hear from the leaders we serve and where we provide value.

We are confidential, problem-solving and outcome-based advisors

We help you create and implement solutions to your people and culture challenges through in-depth team analysis, individual and team coaching, consulting and training. If your challenges fall outside of our core expertise, we draw from our collective team of external, confidential advisors or help you source interview subject matter experts to address your needs.

If it can’t be measured, it typically can’t be managed for performance.

With each person on any given team, we provide very specific performance management insights each person needs to help them clearly see and acknowledge how they get in their own way. Armed with these insightful realizations, it becomes less about holding them accountable and more about each person holding themselves accountable for who they said they were going to be and what they said they were going to do.

Within each team there is the potential for both dynamic and productive tension as well as destructive tension.

We know conflict occurs within teams, the challenge is understanding the predictable reasons for prevention and early interventions before they become destructive.

Just as every culture is a reflection of its leadership, every department or team within your company is a sub-culture which is a direct reflection of the leaders you have appointed.

We provide in-depth and ongoing leadership development training for emerging leaders as well as for refreshing and invigorating your seasoned leaders.
