Clarifying Your Needs
Please reflect on a question below (click to expand), then let's discuss how I may be of service.
What aspiration(s) do you have right now? Longer term?
What seems to be the most important challenge(s) you're facing now?
Where do you currently "spend" most of your attention budget?
Could you tell me about a time when someone genuinely invested in you or your team?
Recall someone who made a difference in your life. What was it about you that allowed great mentoring to occur?
Could you tell me about a time when you felt extremely successful?
Approach & Philosophy
Whatever we put attention to together, these themes will guide how we do so.
Servant-Leader Mindset
Like a tree trunk, leaders are the central support for branches of an organization. Resources move upwardly, including attention. We use this mindset to raise the quality of leadership at all levels.
Right-Brain Values Lead
Humans have a split brain, each half offering starkly different values and capabilities. This trait allows us to choose which value set has final authority. We elevate the wiser, socially attuned, reality-based half to preeminence.
Positive & Social Psychology
Noticing how people naturally function well is a resourceful and respectful way to raise creativity and productivity. We invest in talents and pro-social practices, build them into strengths, and use them to flourish.
Individualized Engagement
Nothing engages and brings peace of mind like being seen, understood, and valued for our unique qualities and contributions. We uphold individuality as a reliable basis for excellence, teamwork and innovation.
Renaissance Spirit
Leadership, team building, and innovation are complex and nuanced. To do them well is a blend of Science, Art, and Philosophy. We use this rich mash-up to inspire new views, creative collaboration, and growth.
Joie de vivre & Tempo Giusto
Zest for life is a potent source of intrinsic motivation for action. The "right tempo" for action is superior to bulldozing at top speed by default. We use both in dynamic tension as a useful governor of our energy.
