LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT COACHING
Markets and technology are changing rapidly. Executive leaders are expected to perform at their highest levels, both professionally and personally. They need to manage, inspire and mentor employees, lead teams and navigate this complex business environment. Today’s leaders, more than ever, need to establish a compelling executive presence while collaborating on multiple levels.
SMALL AND FAMILY OWNED
BUSINESS COACHING
Family owned businesses are primarily challenging because of the structure of the venture from the beginning. Usually the parent has established the business and then brings in the child or the children. Being protective is the role of the parent, but that role needs to shift from being a parent to being a mentor. This shift can sometimes cause instability in the relationships if not addressed properly. Also, the same dynamics present in the family will be present in the business. For example, a controlling parent will want to dictate the direction the company is going without talking with other family members.
BUSINESS PARTNERSHIP
COACHING
Business partners face ongoing challenges including: identifying complimentary strengths, the ability to capitalize on them, different decision-making strategies, establishing appropriate and functional boundaries, different personalities, and disparities in skills, roles, and commitment levels. If these challenges are not properly managed they can result in mistrust, conflict and possibly the death of the business.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
"Last year I found myself in unchartered territory – I had been a top performer as an individual contributor and then was promoted to a much more visible position and became a manager. My people were new, they needed training and the workload was immense. For the first time I felt like I was starting to sink.
Herb helped me with the basics: organize, delegate, be clear in my directives and expectations. More importantly he helped me navigate myself. He is authentic and wise. I trust him implicitly in helping bring out the best in me."
