Coaching and development for founders and executives.

It is a common myth that top executives (including in tech companies) need little to no personal development, support or coaching.

In reality, the need for coaching is growing as you progress in your career ladder. The more you invest in the development of your key executives and yourself as a company leader – the more you invest into the entire organization.

Learn from those who can help you avoid painful mistakes and take a shorter way to success:

Individual coaching from experienced leaders for managers of any level of maturity.

Executive coaching, feedback sessions, improvement of communications and personal effectiveness, conflict management and dealing with your comfort zone.

Working in a cross-cultural environment, you will continuously come across situations where you or someone in your team feel surprised, misunderstood, or upset about something another colleague has said or written. In a fast-paced environment, this can lead to the wrong conclusions or decisions, detrimental for your business.
The solution is straightforward – build the cultural competencies in the team on both sides.
Cultural competencies are built on knowledge about each other and your cultural differences, awareness of own reaction patterns and the ability to reframe a context.
Mastering this combination will lead to more open and transparent communication as well as better alignment of expectations, both of which are the foundation for a cohesive and collaborative cross-cultural team.

Based on a comprehensive analysis of your organization’s communication patterns and processes as well as the internal stakeholder engagement approach, we will design and customize a program to fit your needs, time frames, and organizational culture.
Change is not achieved overnight and as both individual and corporate learning styles differ, you should expect a combination of individual / team trainings, 360-interviews and facilitation, and team coaching.
