Leadership - There must be a clear vision.
It starts at the top. Whatever that means for your organization; one person, co-leaders, or a leadership team. Regardless of how it is defined, if you don't know where you are going, anywhere will do.
Leading with the right vision.
Leadership is defined as "the action of leading a group of people or an organization." It sounds easy, however, we as leaders forget this basic role we play. We get busy with work, meetings, and sometimes meaningless tasks that we should be delegating. If we are truly leading people, then we should be trailblazing and mentoring, while achieving our goals. Is your focus on shareholder value or stakeholder engagement? Great leaders create outcomes for all stakeholders, including employees, customers, government, vendors and partners, the community, and the less fortunate. Can you do it all? Absolutely!
Defining growth sets the direction.
Understanding the variables you are working with determines the direction you can set. Variables like competencies, capacity, resources, finance, markets, product and services, and growth, determine the strategy you adopt. How do you define growth; revenue, profit, or market share? Or is it headcount, size of office or number of customers? What about employee engagement, development, and happiness? Understanding the goals, helps you to define success.
We'll help you create a plan to ensure company health.
Leaders must have a broad view of the organization to align the culture with strategy and strategy to resources. We work with leaders to identify the organizational landscape. Together, we define, challenge and vet the organization direction, goals and current strategies. We identify gaps and contradictions that are keeping the firm from leveraging its core competencies. We work to evaluate the financial health of the firm and ensure there are financial vehicles to fund growth for the long-term.
