Organizations provide an opportunity to connect, create, and contribute. Your organization or team likely delivers a product or service that you believe in, that adds to people’s lives, or possibly even saves them.

On the way to your organization’s end goal, however, there is much work to do. Successful leaders know how how work is done largely impacts what what work is done.

You have to do and can do a lot as a leader on your own, but you know that outside guidance at this juncture will help you reach your vision.

You currently have a new opportunity that—if leveraged—will amplify your organization’s impact. Or, you realize an old problem has yet to be resolved and is making work difficult, unproductive, and decidedly gloomy.

Common organizational issues that you may be facing:

Lack of focus or opportunity to revise focus. It’s been awhile since your whole team intentionally and methodically took the necessary time to review vision, mission, goals, and strategic focus. Or, you are a new leader of an established team and want to reconsider the focus. Either way, without full commitment to a clear direction, you notice your team’s progress stymieing.

Unclear roles and processes. Perhaps roles and processes were never truly determined, or much has changed since they were. Work is being duplicated or dropped. Lack of communication is adding unnecessary complexity and hours of work to projects and timelines.

New team or challenging team dynamics. You want to kick-off a new team with clear goals, roles, and processes, and establish the foundation for solid relationships. Or, your team has had a setback in work or relationships and has not recovered.

Current or stalled change process. Your team tried to implement a change, but there was too much resistance to move it along. Or, you are at the beginning of a change process and want to ensure you set the conditions required for successful change.
