Providing everyday, practical tools and techniques for leaders and teams to be more effective and more successful. I champion challenging, supportive leadership.
We've posted before about some common underlying leadership challenges: ample, senior teams which are unaligned around vision, mission or culture - so pull teams in different directions (see?https://lnkd.in/dFHEstMR); or change initiatives that regularly fail to achieve goals as Dr David Kearney wrote about last week (see?https://lnkd.in/dJxP4xvT?if you missed it). Another core challenge we frequently hear about is the 'extended time to value’ for new senior hires. One of the ways we support leaders to address this challenge is through an approach to Senior Executive Onboarding which focusses on navigating organisational realities and team dynamics. At the heart of this support is our coaching which not only sets out to help you make a strong start with your new network but also covers how to navigate the politics or power structures of the senior team, and how to manage and negotiate the expectations of your role, the role of your team and others. Setting milestones for the first 30, 60 and 90 days helps to set out clear objectives which we evaluate and adjust if needed in each session. If you're interested in finding out more about C-suite level onboarding or the coaching services we offer at OPDC Leadership Development, please get in touch with Dave or myself.
