LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

1. Management/Leadership Team Focus: Facilitated Session

Pathwise Partners worked with the leadership/management team of an organization who was determined to achieve aggressive business objectives, while continuing to build their brand and reputation in the marketplace.

We interviewed each leadership team member in advance of the facilitated session to collect their personal perspectives about the future, perceived opportunities and challenges and priorities for being successful. Following those individual conversations we prepared a customized agenda - focused on the areas critical to achieving success including: direct communication, relationships, believing in others, the notion of assessments and what it means to be a leader.

Pathwise Partners spent a full-day exploring these concepts and facilitating the development of an action plan for success for the leadership team moving forward.

Results

Following our facilitated work the leadership team reported the following:

• communication among team members had improved exponentially
• the organization was now clearly focused on key priorities (and can use those priorities as a benchmark for what should be done and what should be set aside until later)
• accountability for success has increased among all team members
• relationships and the ability to lead and participate in complicated conversations has improved
• leaders are now better able to direct, inspire and manage their team members
• key messages about the future (vision, goals, etc.) are now being communicated consistently by all leaders (both internally and externally)
• new business has been generated among prospects that hadn't been considered before
• growth and expansion plans are now being pursued efficiently and in a targeted fashion vs. being unclear and awkward
