Be a strategic leader:

For leaders who want to position themselves as a strategic leader, raise their executive profile to achieve career success and demonstrate their ability to think and act strategically.

I coach leaders to engage the mindset and behaviours of a strategic leader and upskill them in the capabilities and know-how of creating a strategy.

Raise your executive team performance:

For executive teams that want to be more successful, I help them align on the strategic priorities and hold each other to the mindsets, behaviours and actions that will achieve the strategic outcomes.

If you are bringing in a new leader, or promoting one from within, my First 90 Days Program will set them up for success.  I guide them through the critical conversations, relationships, plans and activities they need to do to create a robust, aligned and implementable strategy within 90 days.

Leaders establish the vision for the future and set the strategy for getting there; they cause change. They motivate and inspire others to go in the right direction and they, along with everyone else, sacrifice to get there”

How do I help:

Strategic leadership is a broad range of mindsets, behaviours and capabilities. I guide leaders and teams through all aspects of being more strategic including:

  • The strategic mindset: the mindset and thinking patterns that help and hinder strategic leadership
  • The strategic behaviours: what to do more and less of to be a strategic leader
  • The strategic capability: action workshops on how to create a strategy

As part of helping leaders become more strategic, I offer team effectiveness and personal leadership profiling tools to identify the specific ways leaders can be more strategic.  These include Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), The Leadership Circle (TLC) and the Life Styles Inventory (LSI) from Human Synergistics.

CASE STUDIES

This successful high growth retailer wanted to fulfill its European and USA expansion strategy. However, the executive team were not fully aligned and were suffering from continuing the competitive behaviors that had made them successful in the past rather than the cohesive team approach that they would need for the future. I worked with them through a series of team alignment and personal coaching sessions to help them change their competitive sales mindset into a team-orientated strategic mindset, focused on the top organisational priority. This not only improved the effectiveness of the top team but had the effect of cascading clarity and reducing silos in the rest of the organisation they led.

Retail

This financial services organisation was on a culture change journey and wanted to align the senior leadership teams on the new culture and strategy. Working with the senior leadership team I helped them refocus on being effective members of their peer team (the team they are a member of, rather than the team they lead), putting the needs of the organisation ahead of their own departments, building the trust and commitment within the team and helping them clarify their strategic priorities.
