Executive Coaching
I provide one-on-one coaching for executives and managers focusing on what the company and the leaders want and need most – e.g. driving profitability and productivity.

Some of the situations that people hire me to address are:

• Strategy development – develop a clear, compelling company vision and mission along with the strategies to achieve it
  
  
• Professional development planning – exploring and determining personal vision and mission and how it relates to their role in the organization.
  
  
• Accelerating growth – for high potential executives who need assistance in reaching their maximum level of effectiveness
  
  
• New Leader – establish role clarity, identify critical success factors, and create a road map to jump-start the leader on the way to success
  
  
• New Hire – helping executives assimilate into the new culture by providing practical solutions for building successful partnerships with peers, management and direct reports as well as focusing on the right goals and objectives
  
  
• Underperforming leader – coming alongside to help identify the roadblocks as well as the pathway to success
  
  

Here are some of the questions that we would wrestle with together:

• What are the 3-5 most important results the organization should expect from you and your team in the next 3-6 months?
  
  
• What are your talents and strengths? How can you most effectively leverage them toward achieving your most important goals? What about the members of your team?
  
  
• If you say “yes” to ____________, what do you have to say “no” to?
  
  
• What would be the ideal outcome in this situation?
  
  
• What are the key factors that will influence your decision?
  
  
• You mentioned that there were some people you could talk to about this. Tell me more...
  
  
• What “next steps” would be helpful in gaining the momentum you need?
  
  
• What are you learning from this situation?
  
  
• What are key obstacles you will need to overcome?
  
  
• If you had to do it all over again, what would you do differently?

Leadership Training
I work with managers, executives and management teams to increase their effectiveness as leaders and in working together to accomplish their goals and objectives. This includes:

• Conversational Leadership
  Effective leadership is dependent on a number of factors, including the leader’s character, ability to cast a compelling vision, and skill in handling the demanding nature of leadership. However, one core element of successful leadership is often overlooked – the everyday, “on the ground” relationships that leaders have with those they lead. This program is designed for leaders to improve their everyday communication skills to create a high-performance organization.
  
  
• Stronger Leaders…Shaping Tomorrow
  Strong, empowered leaders are essential to any organization’s sustainable profitability and growth.
  
  
  • Individual - Using two prominent assessment tools (StrengthsFinder 2.0 & Myers-Briggs) I work with each participant to create a Professional Strengths-Based Development Plan. This will enable them to leverage their unique personality and natural talents for significant, meaningful growth.
    
    
  • Team - There are also custom workshops available to support teams in creating strategies for more effective communication, building trust and team productivity.
    
    
• Making Great Managers
  Do you want to retain your most talented employees? Do you worry about how to motivate your team? Do you need improvements in profits, productivity or quality? How do great managers do it? Let me teach your leaders a system and the skills necessary to create a culture of supportive accountability and team alignment around a clear vision that results in high-performance.
  
  
• Building The Pyramid of Success
  Finding ways to strengthen teams in your organization can lead to astounding improvement in morale, productivity and profit. There are five foundational principles that are crucial for every team to master to make that a reality. In this two-day workshop teams are equipped to take steps toward greater cohesiveness and effectiveness.
  
  
• Leadership Practices Inventory Workshop & 360° Surveys
  The Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI) is a world renowned leadership assessment and training tool. A 360° leadership assessment, individual consultations and a group workshop are used to work with your leaders to measure their leadership competencies, while guiding them through the process of applying the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership^® Model to real-life organizational challenges.
  
  
• Executive Coaching
  Some, or all, of your team members may significantly benefit from one-on-one coaching for the team to achieve maximum effectiveness. See Executive Coaching description.

Strategic Planning
I use a rigorous, thoroughly tested process to assist organizations in creating a strategic plan. This process is effective for well established organizations or start ups. It is also equally effective with businesses, non-profit and government organizations. One of the distinctives of this process is that it places primary responsibility for the creation of the plan on the client. This aspect is critical, not only to the formation of the best plan, but to its effective execution.

Public Speaking
I am available to speak on a variety of leadership topics. Below are a few examples.

• Wired for Excellence: Leading from your strengths
  
  
• Becoming a Conversational Leader: Coaching your employees to excel
  
  
• Creating Teamwork: Strengthening your team with MBTI and StrengthsFinder^TM
