Individual Development

The most important resource in any company is people. The very best processes can be engineered, and the most advanced technology can be bought, but if employees are not fully engaged, committed to learning, and excited about developing careers within your organization, your company’s potential for success is greatly limited. We maximize the human potential in organizations through Executive Coaching, Career Development, Communications Skills Training, Performance Management Feedback & Action Planning, and customized classes and workshops that address specific developmental needs.

Executive Coaching

A 2004 Gallup poll of over 1 million employees revealed that

  • the #1 reason people voluntarily leave their jobs is dissatisfaction with their boss.
  • 50% of employees said they would fire their manager if they could.
  • poorly-led work groups are 50% less productive and 44% less profitable than well-managed work groups.

Executive coaching is a powerful intervention process that provides leaders with a confidential and personalized approach to address their unique challenges and concerns. Our collaborative consulting process provides a data-driven behavioral approach to improve problem solving, interpersonal skills, corporate etiquette and conflict resolution for supervisors, managers and executives at all levels.

Coaching can be delivered via a combination of group interventions with an intact leadership team, or through one-on-one sessions in a fully confidential consulting relationship. Just like a sports coach, the executive coach’s role is to help augment the client’s existing skills, resources, and creativity in order to:

  • enhance leadership effectiveness
  • overcome conflict, resource constraints and time management obstacles
  • manage through change
  • improve team dynamics
  • help clients connect their own values with those of the organization
  • increase employee satisfaction, motivation and productivity

Career Development

Research shows that career pathing and development planning lead to increased employee satisfaction and loyalty, overall organizational effectiveness and improved succession planning. We partner with HR and Training & Development specialists to identify training needs, create curriculum paths, and train managers in how to provide developmental feedback to employees.

One-on-one career counseling is available to help employees seeking career advancement to develop critical competencies, make informed career decisions and better integrate their lives and careers.

Communication Skills

We help employees become more aware of their personal communication patterns and identify the communication styles of others, in order to:

  • create a climate of open communication which is needed to gain cooperation and commitment
  • encourage candid and constructive exchange of information at all levels of the organization
  • foster collaborative working relationships and effective teams

Performance Management Feedback and Action Planning

As recently as two decades ago, most organizations measured their wealth primarily in terms of assets. Now, the main driver of success is people. Unlike equipment and inventory, which depreciate, your employees become more valuable over time. Organizations that recognize this reality and commit to improving employee performance have a significant competitive advantage. That is why employee performance management has become the one of the top strategic initiatives for forward-thinking organizations.

We work with your existing performance management system or help develop a new one that will enable:

  • linking organizational goals to individual performance objectives
  • developmental dialogue between managers and employees
  • participative goal-setting for SMART objectives (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Timed)
  • ongoing feedback and coaching, performance evaluation, action planning, and follow-up

Classes and Workshops

We develop and deliver a wide range of classes and workshops, from “off the shelf” to fully customized, in many areas including, but not limited to:

  • Career Advancement
  • Career Transition (Resume, Interview, Networking, Job Negotiation)
  • Change Management
  • Communications Skills
  • Diversity Awareness
  • Leadership Development
  • Leading Virtual Teams
  • Project Management: including PMBOK® (Project Management Body of Knowledge)
  • Quality and Process Improvement
  • Six Sigma - including DMAIC, DFSS, Six Sigma Awareness, Green Belt, Black Belt, Champion)
  • Stress Management
  • Process Improvement
  • Team Building
