Sample Programs
Winning in the marketplace requires strategies that both leverage
and drive competitive change and leaders that know how to
shape and drive the necessary organizational change.
Our program’s structure and flow will be aligned to both the
strategic challenges and to the most urgent leadership
development needs for our client.
Individuals learn best in applying new perspectives. Thus, as
much as possible, action teams will hear a framework or
perspective and apply that perspective to either their challenge
or to their leadership.
Coaching helps individuals confront development needs and
capitalize on strengths. However coaches need more than one
session with each individual to achieve maximum benefit.
Coaches should be highly experienced in working with senior
leaders.
Two models from the Columbia program should be retained in
order to generate common language. Those two models are the
1) Learn, Focus, Align, Execute model as the necessary steps in
strategy and 2) the notion of a winning proposition as distinct from
a mere value proposition.
