OUR SERVICES

Unlock your full potential through practical approaches without the “consultant speak”.

GRADE

…is a simple healthcheck of your organization’s people strategy. The five critical elements of GRADE will help you diagnose which part(s) of your plan need(s) attention – Change, Culture, Employee Development, Team Effectiveness or Succession Plan. Contact us to learn more.

Goals – an effective strategy is aligned with your long-term goals.

Reward your people appropriately.

Authenticity – be authentic, even when the news is not the best.

Develop employees to create a robust talent pipeline that can withstand sudden flight risks.

Engage them from day one and every day thereafter.

CHANGE

There’s an old saying, “Just when I figured out the answer, they changed the question.”

Individual, departmental or organization-wide, change can be that unsettling. It shifts the status quo and can be very stressful. But it doesn’t have to be.

It’s all about the people.

We’ll walk your people through every step of the process, from getting them ready for the change to actually leading and implementing the change, to ensuring that the change sticks.

Contact us today. Our discovery conversations come without obligation.

CULTURE

Next to “leadership”, culture is that one element for which there are almost as many definitions as there are leaders. We call it “the way we do things around here, especially when no one is looking.” And as elusive as the definition is, changing it can be even more challenging.

Muhammad Ali said, “It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out, it’s the pebble in your shoe.”

Culture change is a bit like that – it may come down to recognizing the little irritant that needs to be addressed. Of course, if it were that simple, there wouldn’t be an issue. That’s where we come in.

Give us a call. There’s no charge for the discovery conversation. Really!

EMPLOYEE DEVELOPMENT

The basis of our approach is to deliver management training that translates into measurable business results, aligned with your desired strategic outcomes.

To ensure that our work delivers on point, we collaborate with leaders within your organization to ensure that we have a firm understanding of the vision and the current issues getting in the way of achieving that vision and related business outcomes.

We then employ a logically-sequenced approach that begins with establishing, ahead of time, specific, measurable business results that define success, and ends with an assessment of whether or not learned behaviours can be observed on the job, and are indeed yielding superior business results.

Let us show you how.

TEAM EFFECTIVENESS

You know that you need to align your people around a common sense of purpose, but it feels like something’s missing from your “team”. Sometimes, organizational teams lack the most important ingredient – teamwork.

Let us help you discover and build the most effective approach for your business.

SUCCESSION PLANNING

…is it on your radar? It should be.

It’s not just about replacing impending retirements. It’s about ensuring you have the competencies you need, when and where you need them, at the right price. And when you do need them, can you wait for as long as it takes to develop those competencies?

How long will you hang on to your high-performers or your millennials? One year? Two?

We will partner with you to develop a common sense plan that answers these questions and fits your budget.
