Advising
Description
Some call it coaching and some call it advising. Regardless of what it is called, we advise and coach leaders to help them increase their professional impact, successfully navigate difficult challenges, and catalyze the growth of their organizations.
We firmly believe that an organization is only as effective as its leader(s), so as an advisor, we give advice and coaching designed to support and grow the leader. Our sole objective is the success of the leader.
Who is this for?
We work with leaders who are responsible for growing an organization through its people. In other words, we work with leaders who have direct reports, are responsible for making decisions impacting their organizations, and who welcome the opportunity to learn and grow.
Consulting
We work with senior leadership teams to meld organizational strategy, alignment, and culture by:
• Clarifying and simplifying the work of the organization
• Aligning and organizing people, processes, and resources
• Resourcing and allocating to align both with the priorities
• Evolving and developing team members to engage, retain and grow each
• Setting the direction of the organization
"Michael helped Ogle International Tax Advisors re-evaluate its mission, core principles, and operations. During the consulting project, he demonstrated that he understood how to align a team around the most important priorities to drive value. We benefited greatly from his leadership. He took the time to not only solidify the game plan but put forth the extra effort to follow up with individuals to ensure we were exceeding our goals. I highly recommend him."

Facilitating/Team Leader
Harnessing the collective wisdom of the group in order to take strategic action
Teamwork and collaboration have now become necessary elements for organizational success. The challenge with this is that people are busier than ever, which means they do not have the desire or capacity to lead one more project or initiative even if it benefits the organization. Our experience tells us, however, that most people, when invited to a focused and purposeful discussion, will engage and offer constructive input. We facilitate and lead projects where the collective wisdom of a group is necessary for decision making and taking action.
• Forming and leading collaborative work teams for purposeful projects
• Facilitating strategic discussions (onsite or offsite)
• Leading special projects
