Leading requires more than experience and training. It requires a steady commitment to growth through practice, reflection, and partnership. Engaging a trustworthy adviser and coach who has an external perspective allows for diligence and accountability to produce results. My approach is focused on highlighting strengths and allowing leaders to become their best.
Identify Leadership Style & Working Preferences
Utilise the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI®) and other assessments to identify your personal preferences and how you can be most effective.
Individual Coaching
Today’s leaders are required to innovate, think strategically, manage globally, manage projects, develop talent, and deliver superior business results. Successful leadership requires a high level of self-awareness and access to analytical, strategic, detail and interpersonal skills so they can best:
- Make decisions and solve business problems
- Communicate, collaborate, and influence across functional teams
- Coach and develop others
- Project manage, plan and prioritize
- Create and implement strategy
Leading High-Performing Teams
I work with leaders and their teams (or working project groups) to facilitate team effectiveness. The outcome for any team is to successfully execute their objectives which I can help to facilitate by partnering to:
- Develop and drive toward a common vision
- Align goals and establish clear expectations
- Identify individuals’ roles and responsibilities
- Design effective meetings and a decision-making processes
- Learn to work together by understanding individual working styles (using the Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument® (HBDI®)
We would work closely with you to firstly understand your business and people needs. Only once we have done this, we devise a tailored programme and strategy for IMPACTFUL growth.
