Through our proprietary methods enhanced by our consultants’ insight and action, we partner with your individual team members to:

New Leader Installation

When onboarding leaders who are new to your organization, it can take months for them to acclimate. Our new leader installation process uses a data-driven approach to transition leaders into new roles, accelerating their integration and ability to drive results.

Our installation method leverages assessments to facilitate a series of dialogues that assist in setting expectations and surfacing style differences, barriers, and other obstacles sooner, which allows you to build a strong foundation for productive, effective relationships. This process is tailored to the role and responsibilities of the new leader by identifying key stakeholders to success and developing an awareness of the challenges that they may face in these relationships. Working through these challenges provides a basis for establishing effective communication and ground rules on how you will make decisions and work through conflict.

Succession Management

On average, CEOs spend 46 percent of their time on talent issues, and that’s for a good reason–the cost to replace an executive is roughly four times the cost of their salary. On the upside, investing in people has been shown to have a tremendous payoff in the areas of employee engagement, innovation, cultural affinity, and customer loyalty. Beyond the strengths, skills, and experiences that come to life on the job, those less-tangible qualities and attributes that fall into the leadership competency bucket are a more accurate barometer of sustainable success. Talent management at the Board and CEO level includes the following services and many more:

  • Executive/Director assessment and selection
  • CEO/Board Consulting
  • Executive and Board Installation
  • Culture development and alignment during M&A

The rigor of this engagement is built on the back of accountability and measurement. This process does not simply inform—it creates leaders.
