C-Suite and Senior Executives:
Making businesses — and leaders — better
As a leader you're driven by bringing out in yourself and others, it’s the heart to making a meaningful difference. Yet, you may be fueled by the unrealistic belief that stress drives peak performance: you push harder, work longer, stay up later and seek more distractions. It’s exhausting, unsustainable with only momentary satisfaction.
Working together, we’ll tap into the core purpose driving you and your organization while quickly removing gridlock and gain alignment for transformational outcomes.
Tap into your greatest strengths as a leader--for you, your team, and your organization. Dislodge old habits, uncover untapped potential, reclaim a shared purpose and gain a faster track to innovation and social impact.
Confidence and clarity in decision making: Make an acquisition? Expand into a new market? Shift processes and partners? Mitigate a crisis? No matter the challenge and the surrounding ambiguity develop a practice to move from fear to constructive action
Effectively navigate politics with grace: Office drama derailing progress? Assess and actively address the political environment that may be impacting you, your executive team, and your board. Manage politics with dignity and effectiveness.
Personal-reinvention: Time for a refresh, your professional persona no longer matches your goals, values, and market conditions. As a skilled marketing and branding expert and mindfulness teacher, let’s work together to enhance/reframe your path, maximize your efforts and get your mojo back.
Purpose is our initiation to the path of personal and professional leadership, of finding our own voice, forging our own path in the world, of contributing all we have towards the greatest good.
Leadership can be solitary experience.
Lean on a trusted thought-partner.
Teams resist change.
Shared vision is the pathway to performance.
Team Alignment—Enhance trust and performance
The pace of change is catalyzing new ways of working at every level. But evolution is messy. We get stuck in established models that don’t work. Cultures clash and progress stalls. Politics and distraction disrupt.
Most organizations know that helping teams get great work done--and feel good doing it--is the critical element for their success. But they don’t quite know how. Using models of team coaching, workshop facilitation, and customized programs and experiences with boards and senior leadership, teams can build a sense of shared purpose, kindle their sense of unity, understanding, and focus, addressing such issues as:
Igniting a shared purpose.
Improving communication, effective listening, and emotional intelligence.
Blending cultures when teams regroup and merge.
Giving and receiving feedback.
Addressing conflict.
Techniques to increase equilibrium and focus.
Wellness at work skills to thrive in challenging times.
When you discover what truly drives you, it instills
value into everything you do.
Leaders at Transition Points:
Leadership and career acceleration
Given the pace of change and the urgent need to innovate and iterate, it is a challenge to feel a sense of mastery and confidence in how you lead. It’s challenging to steer a course during the most intense periods of transition in business strategy, corporate change, or career direction.
Whether you’re a rising high-achiever or senior leader, accelerating your personal growth and connecting with a sense of purpose begins by asking: What matters? Why are we doing what we’re doing? From there, the skills of leadership and techniques can be tested and practiced.
Personal equilibrium and courage. Understand your career story, dislodge old habits, discover untapped potential, recharge and rebalance, attain clarity of purpose and design a roadmap for sustained performance.
On-boarding and “first 100 days” advising. Set goals, plan actions, and attain traction at an early stage to lead and influence more effectively. Garner strong support and achieve meaningful wins
Ex-pat reentry. Uniquely attuned planning and guidance, drawing on my personal experience and executive coaching with executives who are moving between companies, countries, and cultures.
Transitions. Lead yourself and others through change, crises, business initiatives, plateaus, and new roles without friction, and shape a career (and post-career) of unparalleled achievement.
Generational wisdom and opportunities. Drawing on extensive proprietary research and work with hundreds of senior executives, unique programs for Thrivers™-- those who believe age knows no boundary and want the wisdom of their experiences to be used in new ways.
Purpose is the articulation of your reason for being,
of how you want to make a difference in the world —- both professionally and personally.
Leadership is exhilarating and it’s hard.
Great leadership is harder.
Have you lost a sense of direction?
Are you spinning inside?
Are you no longer able to achieve your goals?
When You’re Stuck—Getting out of drift
The opposite of purpose is drift. Teams, organizations, and individuals can ignite and reignite a sense of purpose and forward momentum through a hands-on exploration of the three core elements of purpose—your individual and collective sense of identity, contribution, and connection.
You’ll ask yourself new questions.
You’ll take meaningful steps to connect to your strengths, name your gaps, and gain insight into the underlying purpose and goals that matter most.
Together, we’ll find the right balance of open-ended exploration, practical self-assessments, relevant tools and exercises.
You develop your resilience using simple mindfulness techniques.
You’ll create a roadmap to carry you forward with your team and organization, your next pursuits, your biggest vision for yourself.
I’ve seen over and over that when we call purpose into our lives, we make the bold decision to be original, to build a life that fulfills us, provides for us economically, allows us to connect with the people and uses our greatest gifts.
