BUSINESS STRATEGIES AND LEADERSHIP RISK MITIGATION
Today’s headlines point to an economy in a state of unusual volatility and uncertainty. Senior executives are challenged by serious and complex issues ranging from the ongoing viability of their companies, to changing corporate culture, to successful succession planning and executive renewal. Leaders must also prepare for a future that is largely unknown. We have a successful track record of helping to strengthen and reposition organizations that are facing such challenges, including assessing the risks and capabilities of managment teams.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING
Successful companies understand that the consequence of hiring or promoting executives without proper support can be dire, sometimes fatal. They recognize that leadership development is an essential investment in their future. There are two distinct types of leadership development: the first occurs gradually within a system that remains largely static. The second is dynamic and transforms the system itself leading to rapid, effective, practical, lasting change. We offer the second.

I found James’ coaching to be most useful. I highly recommend it!”
“The penny dropped in a single session, not once but twice!
”
“James conducted his coaching with me over the phone, due to geography. I was at first rather skeptical that it would be successful. However, it proved to be as rich an experience as in-person coaching would have been. James’ listening skills are amazing. He smoothly facilitates the conversation by asking focused, probing questions, highlighting convergences and contradictions when appropriate. I also found his insights to be smart and respectful. I have no hesitation in recommending James’ services.”
