Leadership
Many small and midsize businesses underestimate the role of leadership in creating innovation or change. Unlike a large organization where leadership is often kept at a distance, the leadership of smaller organizations is visible and tangible. Leaders often fail to realize that like parents, what they do (or don't do) is closely observed and becomes the model for employees and other stakeholders.
It has been our experience that new business strategies or change initiatives often fail because leadership is not aligned for success. Even though they have greenlighted the initiative, they might unable or unwilling to make the changes necessary, and cling to the status quo. Our leadership services include:
- Leadership consulting
- Ongoing leadership coaching
