Unlock your team's full potential with our expertise in DISC, Emotional Intelligence, and Gallup CliftonStrengths (formerly StrengthFinders) assessments. Let’s work together to build a stronger, more cohesive team.
Strategic Advising
Sometimes rather than a coach role, you need more of a thought-partner or strategic advisor. It is extremely useful to think through strategies and approaches with a trusted partner who has had similar experiences.
Transition Support
Changing jobs can be thrilling but also stressful. It helps to have a partner supporting one or more of: resume and cover letter assembly, interview preparation, research planning, mock interviews, and decision making process.
Facilitation
Whether an off-site retreat, workshop, or just an in-house meeting, adding a trained facilitator not only makes for a better outcome but also allows you to be a participant or observer rather than managing the event.
Executive Performance Evaluations
We provide a facilitated evaluation process with your governing board that is interview-based and creates a meaningful dialogue through all stages of the process. It is forward-looking and goal-oriented and reduces stress in what can be a stressful process.
Team and Culture
Investing in your team can create the organizational culture you desire. Programs can be customized to meet your organization where it is today and move it to the best it can be. We are DISC and EI certified.
