TRANSFORMING LEADERSHIP Effectiveness TO ACCOMPLISH EXTRAORDINARY BUSINESS PERFORMANCE
Peter Drucker said that "Culture eats strategy for breakfast". If so, then leadership eats everything else because it creates the culture.
This is a bigger leverage than most companies’ gross profit margin, but very few companies have the Leadership Effectiveness Index on their KPI dashboard.
The same database reveals that the top 10% performing businesses have an average Leadership Effectiveness of 80 percentile points, while the bottom 10% have an average of 30 percentile points.
Leadership Effectiveness Index above 50% is considered a competitive advantage and below 50% a competitive disadvantage.
We are a next-generation performance transformation firm that helps leadership teams grow their business results by increasing their Leadership Effectiveness Index, individually and collectively, so they can make a global impact.
We lead the shift from costly, ineffective contractual leadership development projects into an affordable and agile transformation offering tailor-made services on a monthly subscription.
Our work helps organizations make the difficult leap from one growth phase to the next by evolving the organizational capacity and capability to create outcomes that matter most.

An Integrated Framework for Transformative Performance and Extraordinary Business Results
The Leadership Effectiveness transformation system has 7 interlocking and reinforcing components that, taken together, accomplish more than any single-component solution could.
Individual Leadership Effectiveness Evaluation (Annually)
- Accelerates Development - Instantly reveals key opportunities for development without requiring reading through reams of documentation.
- Enables leaders to start with a targeted breakthrough focus, rather than spending months trying to reach one.
-
Increase capability to lead authentically.
-
Reveals actions that drive results and impede their results.
Collective Leadership Assessment (Annually)
The Collective Leadership Assessment™ delivers a powerful litmus test of your leadership culture. It reveals how your people view their current leadership culture and compares that reality to the optimal culture they desire and benchmark it to other organizations. The “gap” between the current culture and the desired outcome instantly reveals key opportunities for leadership development.
The Collective Leadership Assessment™:
- Establishes a compelling rationale for change.
-
Has a greater ability to engage effectively the stakeholders.
-
Enables to create an inspired culture in their part of the organization and to positively enhance the culture of the overall organization
Kickoff Offsite Workshop (Annually)
The experiential workshop introduces the leadership team to the robust Universal Model of Leadership in a unique and memorable way. It will help to internalize the Leadership Circle framework as a common language and will pave the way to the Reactive-Creative shift required for enhanced leadership effectiveness. This session has the power to begin a transformative journey for leaders.
By focusing on the specific aspects of awareness and conscious intention that are most related to leadership effectiveness, participants get grounded in what will matter most for their future success.
The goals of the workshop are:
- Debriefing the Collective Leadership Assessment
-
Clarifying the impact of the Collective Effectiveness on business performance
-
Discussing the gaps between current reality and desired culture
-
Setting gap priorities
-
Committing to next steps with specific links to the business outcomes
Collective Leadership Development Plan (Ongoing)
The Leadership Development Plan of the executive team sets the agenda for team coaching. It relies on the results of the Collective Leadership Assessment and the agreements achieved during the full-day workshop.
The Leadership Development Plan is decided in the context of the strategic challenges the company faces. Based on the strategic priorities, the team decides on the “One Big Thing”™ that will make the most impact on business results.
The One Big Thing is supported by a single ‘start behavior’ and a single ‘stop behavior’ that the team commits to change. We follow up on the progress during team coaching sessions and the coach holds the team accountable for the changes.
Individual Leadership Development Plan (Ongoing)
Like the team’s leadership development plan, the individuals identify the “One Big Thing”™ that will create the outcomes that matter the most for the individual, team, and the organization. The coach helps the leaders to articulate their purpose and vision so that they will be in alignment with their One Big Thing and the organization vision.
The leaders decide on their individual single ‘start behavior’ and single ‘stop behavior’ that will have the most impact on their leadership effectiveness and business performance.
Pulse Surveys (Quarterly)
Team Coaching (Monthly)
One-on-One Coaching (Ongoing)
Leaders work with a coach to identify and work on those areas for development that will have the greatest impact on their effectiveness and business performance.
The process starts with creating a vision. Next, we help them become clear on the current reality based on the the feedback from the Leadership Circle Profile™. The gap between the leader’s vision and their current reality is closed through work done in the context of the business challenges between coaching sessions.
The 1-on-1 coaching sessions will be designed according to the preferences, needs, and time constraints. 1-on-1 coaching session are bi-weekly 60-minute long. However, this is not a time-based program. The coaching sessions can be longer, shorter or ad-hoc depend on the needs.
Leadership enhances the ORGANIZATIONAL CAPABILITY AND capacity to create OUTCOMES THAT matter most.
~Bob Anderson
Engagement and Pricing
A typical engagement starts with the CEO and the executive team.
After seeing measurable success on assessments and performance, the top team expands the program to the extended leadership.
Unlike any other management consulting firm, our 'all-inclusive' standard fees are straightforward and fully transparent despite the delivery of a customized program to specific needs.
The fees are affordable because coaching sessions are conducted on Zoom. Workshops are conducted off-site face-to-face. It fits organizations which executives travel intensively.
The fee is just $1,250 per participant per month.
