Leadership Development

While Executive Coaching is tailored to meet the needs of leaders at the highest level of the organization – there typically is a need for increased leadership and managerial skills at all levels. 

We tailor our coaching engagements to meet the needs of leaders at all levels of the organization because Leadership Development has a direct impact on:

  • The leader's effectiveness throughout the organization

  • Job satisfaction

  • Morale

  • Company culture

  • And not at least the BOTTOM LINE

Companies that focus on developing their leaders outperform companies that don't.

“Through the coaching work with Alex, it has been impressive to see the professional and personal transformation of multiple leaders in our company.  These managers are now more efficient and effective in their leadership while working to be the boss they would want to work for.” - Karla Nugent, Chief Business Development Officer, Owner, The Weifield Group

Executive Coaching

Executives face unique challenges and often times it is difficult to receive objective input or feedback from within the organization. 

A coach:

  • Brings objectivity

  • Acts as a mirror

  • Assists the Executive in exploring new ways to lead the organization

  • Assists the Executive in meeting future challenges and lead the organization to success

Executive coaching provides accelerated leadership development tailored to each individual’s unique needs.

 “I have known Alex for over 10 years.  Throughout the years that I have known her she has worked incredibly hard to develop her skills and her knowledge to become one of the best coaches that I have engaged with.  She has worked with me to help me find the “real” root source of my life challenges and assists me in facing them head on.  The freedom associated with this discovery has allowed me to be a better person overall and the continued work that I do with Alex will help me in my journey to always be the best “Me” that I can be, while assisting others in a similar fashion.  Thank you Alex for your continued support and continuous education!!” - Larry (Butch) Fiore Jr., President, Fiore & Sons, Inc.

Team Alignment

Once we have created an organizational structure that supports the team vision we ensure:

  • Right people in the right seats

  • Shared departmental and individual goals in support of the Vision/Strategy

  • Clear understanding of the interrelation of each organizational function

  • Individual role clarity

“Alex has been coaching my senior management team for years. She never ceases to amaze me in how quickly she gets to the root of the problem. And then, she patiently walks them through the steps necessary to make real change. Although it can be painful for people to change, it has always yielded great results.” - Joe Silva, Founder/CEO, Garb, Inc.

Conflict Resolution

There are endless possible reasons for conflict – most always though it’s either a structural issue or a people problem. One thing is clear: conflict never speeds up progress and tarnishes our end results. Remember, ‘Culture eats Strategy for lunch’.

Here are some of the key ways we can help:

  • Identify the actual dysfunctions and their origins.

  • Ensure everyone understands what is creating the conflict and what’s at stake.

  • If it’s structural – create an organizational structure that supports goal achievement.

  • If it’s people – work with individuals and teams on removing roadblocks and establishing new, productive ways to communicate in order to achieve effective teamwork.

"Our experience with Alex was fantastic.  She spent the time to understand each of us as individuals, then deftly wove that into productive and honest conversations about who we are and what we want out of our business.  Our partnership, and business, felt immediate impact and assisted us in navigating the conflicts that were blocking us from communicating clearly.  She's also more fun than your average human which we thoroughly enjoyed." - Andrew Schmidt H.C.R.I, CORE Contractors Co-owner

Strategic Planning

Without a clear and shared vision of your organization’s future it is difficult to ensure everyone’s efforts are aligned, which in turn slows your progress and wastes precious resources.

The ultimate vehicle to move your company forward and to align your team is a solid Strategy and Plan.

  • A clear and shared understanding of where the organization is today (where we ACTUALLY are , not where we THINK we are)

  • Agreed upon, well understood and shared ‘ownership’ of where the company is going – short and long term Business Vision and Strategy

  • Well-defined Objectives and Action Steps, a Roadmap that will move the organization towards fulfillment of the shared Vision

“Alex has been instrumental in guiding our leadership team and board of directors through the strategic planning process. Her patient and focused direction has helped us build an achievable growth model. Having had the opportunity to work with a number of strategic planners I would give Alex the highest recommendation.” - James Geckler Former President/ CEO, The Harmony Foundation

Organizational Structure & Change

Change management sounds ominous, and is a term that has been overused. However, an organization is not static – it’s dynamic and ever changing.

We examine  your structure to ensure it is still optimally supporting your company today and it is well suited for tomorrow’s challenges. Sometimes a major overhaul is needed but more often  just some minor ‘tweaks’ can have a huge impact.

Organization Structure process includes:

  • Assessment of current structures - SWOT

  • Clarification of organizational needs – Vision/Strategy

  • Gap analysis

  • Team Assessment and Alignment process

  • Transition Plan
