Effective Leadership - Your Competitive Advantage

Effective leadership is the only competitive advantage that will endure. That's because leadership has two sides - what a person is (character) and what a person does (competence). Stephen Covey

  • Strive for continuous improvement
  • Seek self knowledge and acceptance
  • Welcome positive change
  • Are prepared to take responsibility for your life.

Leadership Transitions Coaching

Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. John Wooden

Transitioning to new leadership positions is often accompanied by the excitement of new challenges coupled with the fear of failure. Studies show that, in Canada, transitioning leaders' efforts to effect positive change, are most commonly frustrated by:

  • Navigating corporate politics
  • Their inability to get work done through others

A successful transition requires:

  • clear performance expectations
  • guidance and support from bosses, colleagues and peers, and
  • a great deal of professional drive
  • motivation and personal courage

Leadership Coaching - A Step by Step Approach

Real leadership development involves a process which occurs over time. Marshall Goldsmith

An initial assessment quickly makes it evident where lines of responsibility, authority and accountability in the workplace are unclear. The assessment process helps overwhelmed, stymied, stuck or burned-out executives get a clear understanding of coaching objectives.

Imagination is more important than knowledge. Albert Einstein

Our coaching process lets you take stock, refuel, recharge and rechart your course and become more able to:

  • Manage workplace challenges effectively
  • Leverage arising opportunities
  • Harness workplace passion
  • Encourage innovation
  • Create a coaching environment for your staff
  • Develop work life balance
  • Free your imagination

Inspiration

The belief that becomes truth for me…is that which allows me the best use of my strength, the best means of putting my virtues into action. Andre Gide

A different understanding of leadership has emerged recently. Leaders are being encouraged to include stakeholders, to evoke followership, to empower others. We cannot help to influence any situation without respect for the complex network of people who contribute to our organizations.Meg Wheatley, Leadership and the New Science.

The world of the 1990s and beyond will not belong to 'managers' or those who can make the numbers dance. The world will belong to passionate, driven leaders—people who not only have enormous amounts of energy but who can energize those whom they lead. Jack Welch, ex-CEO of General Electric
