Task
The senior team of a mid-sized organization was suffering, and several of the company’s leaders were ready to leave the organization. The CEO was faced with the need to either sell his company or bring all the leaders together to work toward the common goal.
Action
Regular one-on-one sessions with each leader as well as regular team sessions to address opportunities for learning and building trust. Engaged the team in problem solving exercises to enhance team effectiveness. Broadened reach with additional teams across the business group to build agreements and to share the same learning principles that they could then cascade throughout the organization.
Result
After six months of group and one-on-one coaching for the entire team, all identified challenges were overcome. The company has grown, morale is higher organization-wide, and the entire senior team remained with the organization. The CEO believes leadership coaching for his senior team saved the organization and helped them create better business goals and increase profits.
