Leadership Case Seminar

When leaders from diverse organizations get together and discuss their challenges, some really helpful tips can be exchanged.  It can surprise you when something you take for granted is a valuable new idea for one of your peers.  And it's amazing to get input from leaders who maybe have faced similar situations that you are now dealing with.  The Leadership Case Seminar is a way to meet regularly with a group of organizational leaders and develop the trust necessary to really help one another.  I of course make sure that leaders from competing organizations are not in the same group.

Future Search: Planning with the Whole System in the Room

Future Search is an unparalleled method for "Getting the Whole System in the Room for Vision, Commitment, and Action."  See the Tools/Techniques page in this website for more details.  This workshop provides an overview of this model of strategic planning involving multiple stakeholders in complex systems.  But it's not just a lecture format - we experience some of the aspects of Future Search by applying it to participants' organizations or situations.

Creating High Performing Teams

If you're a tech startup growing a team or if you are leading a tech team, you are probably experiencing the disappointment of the team not getting the results you want. How do you assess and improve your team?

Using the Team Assessment Survey (TAS), based on the deeply researched Rocket Model, you can get a TQ, an overall measure of team functioning, compared to other similar teams.  In addition, the TAS provides a measure of eight components of team functioning, and the resulting profile leads to activities to address areas that need improvement.  This can be used for C-Suite teams and Boards, forming new teams, on-boarding team members, training leaders to build high-performing teams, identifying high-potential people, and helping entire organizations foster effective teamwork.

If you are interested in getting an evidence-based measure of your teams performance, and guidance on how to improve it, please use the contact form above and indicate your interest. I will contact you to arrange for you team to take the Team Assessment Survey.

Getting Input From Subordinates

Let's face it.  Your staff may not be giving you the input you need.  They may be afraid to be honest with you.  They may be afraid of offending someone else.  But their experience and expertise can be essential to organizational success.  This workshop will help leaders find ways to encourage staff and subordinates to participate more fully in discussions, and help by providing input.
