CEOs of fast growth companies have questions about their team
Who has the potential to be great when we are twice the size we are currently?
What will they need to learn or develop to realize that potential?
Is anyone at their full potential now or being stretched beyond capacity?
We help CEOs answer these critical questions and define their leadership talent plan. We believe everyone in an organization, including its leaders, have areas for improvement. A powerful development plan will help them achieve their career goals, add value to the company, and set a good example for those below them. We help individual leaders realize their full potential.
01
Take Stock Of Your Team
Our methodology provides a comprehensive evaluation of a leader’s strengths, development areas, and career potential. These individual assessments give you a clear understanding of your team’s strength, potential for success, and gaps that must be filled to achieve goals.
02
Build a Strong Bench Today to Ensure Continued Growth Tomorrow
Assessment results and developmental planning sessions over the past 40 years inform our individual developmental recommendations. We guide people through the creation of a powerful developmental plan tailored specifically to their needs and company goals. The most impactful activities are emphasized. Once prioritized, each developmental activity includes what, why, and when it will happen, plus how it will be measured. Coaching sessions are conducted to monitor progress, ensure accountability, and ensure each individual is supported in their development.
03
Customized Plans For Every Team Member
Assessments will help identify your next generation of leaders and get them working to close developmental gaps now. They will be ready to take on more sooner. Gaps in the succession plan will also be identified so that you remain ahead of the curve.
