“Previous facilitators were not nearly as effective as you. You galvanized us and your methodology was much more precise.”
Joseph Avena
Senior Director, Information Systems, IPRO

Plan
What is the change that requires attention?

This is one of those questions many are quick to answer, yet the real change that needs to be addressed may be revealed through some reflection or a deep dive.

Be Your Best
“To be prepared is half the victory,” wrote Miguel de Cervantes, Spanish novelist, poet and playwright. And foundational to being ready to plan and to lead is to anchor in your identity. Now’s the time to ensure your brand is all that is should be, and that your own identity is clear and you know your greatest strengths.

Plan
Winston Churchill said, “Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak, courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”

Brainstorming and decision-making begins with listening. To be equipped with all that’s needed for this process, who needs to be part of this process?

…To listen to you?

…And to be heard?

Be Your Best
“Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it,” wrote W. H. Murray, Scottish mountaineer and writer.

Consider these questions with boldness:

What have others done successfully?

What path forward requires the greatest amount of courage?
