Our Services
Professional Development for Teams
You have an intact team, open enrollment group, or a cohort of leaders who need to work on a specific development goal. We work with you to define the results of a successful program and then plan backwards from there.
Engagement
Example
One-day program with leaders in the Office of Academic Affairs focused on effectively communicating the vision and value of a new academic/strategic plan across various constituencies.
PARTICIPANT RESPONSE
“I came away with a detailed draft of a presentation I will need to make many times in the coming months, and I also came away with great tips about how to deliver it effectively. That is tremendously valuable. In addition, I think the lessons I learned will help me in many other ways.”
— Program Participant, Ohio State University Office of Academic Affairs
1:1 Coaching
You are an accomplished professional with an eye toward continued growth. We work together to identify where you are in your career, and where you want to go next. Our coaching engagement then operates in service of bridging the gap between the two.
Engagement
Example
Three-month coaching retainer focused on supporting a recently promoted manager. We worked on developing effective strategies for communication, leadership, and team development.
PARTICIPANT RESPONSE
“This is the most valuable part of my week.”
— Executive Coaching Client, Director, Cisco
Event Prep
Your calendar has a bright red circle around an upcoming date when you need to perform at your best. We work with you to craft clear, concise content, deliver that content in an appropriately dynamic way, and manage your nerves when the moment arrives.
Engagement
Example
