Areas of Practice
Leadership Development
Sometimes our clients are interested in assessing their abilities, strengths, challenges, and assumptions. We help to provide insights about current patterns and interactions.. We offer transition counseling and career planning. For critical performance issues, we ask for full sponsorship to provide compassionate and useful feedback to help define success measures. We help leaders create consensus with their reports and colleagues.
Strategic Organizational Change
We offer strategic business planning to discover trends, customer needs, priorities, values, performance measures, and staffing plans. Partnership alignment between agencies have yielded agreements on role, schedule and operational responsibility for joint action on new policies and multi-million dollar projects. We help organizations develop business case recommendations for cost saving operational changes. We help design conferences and workshops that create new organizational norms and policies.
Building Team Consensus
Ensuring clear team sponsorship that results in objectives, guidelines, checkpoints, roles, and single point accountability is the defining quality of well-charted teams. We specialize in inter-disciplinary, inter-department or cross-agency alignment for joint decision making, coordinated efforts, and cooperative hand-offs. We help teams set expectations, resolve role conflicts, and clarify accountabilities. We work with Labor/Management Teams to use interest-based issue resolution principles. We help individuals reconcile professional relationships, appreciate different styles and commit to changes in daily behavior. Our team trainings include just-in-time tools useful for solving real-time challenges.
