Executive Team Development
The development of high-performance teams, including senior executive teams, management teams, and key functional or product/service teams, is a critical driver of sustainable business results. For senior executive teams, strong alignment around business strategy, strategic initiatives that cut across functional and product/service divisions, and mutual expectations concerning accountability, trust, conflict resolution, and a results-orientation is essential. Our Team Development solutions include assessment, development, and coaching programs that transform teams across organizational levels into high-performance teams that are aligned with the business strategy. Each of our team development solutions, including Executive Team Assessment & Development and Leader Onboarding & Assimilation, provides teams a powerful team-building and shared learning experience that strengthens strategic alignment and sustainable business results.
executive Team Assessment & Development
Executive Team Assessment & Development solutions include individual and team assessment, development, and coaching programs that help executives, managers, and team leaders clarify their short-term performance objectives and long-term career goals, identify team strengths, development areas, and blind spots, and gain insight into how their collective values and behavioral competencies drive team performance outcomes. Our team assessment and development solutions are fully customizable to meet a range of business needs, including senior executive teams seeking stronger alignment and collaboration across strategic initiatives, newly formed leadership and management teams pursuing a powerful team-building and shared learning experience, small groups of leaders or temporary teams with shared development goals, and specialized team assessment and coaching that targets the development of highly specialized skills or capabilities.
leader onboarding & assimilation
Leader Onboarding and Assimilation solutions include programs and practices designed to support the critical transition period for executives and managers who are beginning new leadership roles via internal promotions or external placement. Our onboarding services accelerate the assimilation of executives into their new roles, integrating with their new team members, and adjusting to the organization's culture. Our comprehensive executive onboarding process engages many stakeholders in the assimilation process, including the executive’s new direct reports, peers, supervisors, critical colleagues across divisions and functions, and clients or other external stakeholders. Our customizable New Leader Assimilation program accelerates early success in new roles via comprehensive stakeholder analysis, semi-structured interviews with diverse stakeholders, interactive consultative processes involving the new leader and key stakeholders, and action plans targeting key milestones during the transition period.
