Board and team coaching
​
In today's challenging, rapidly-changing business environment, industries, skillsets and roles face extinction, and quickly.
Especially those with more fixed structures, traditional cultures and ingrained thinking and leadership.
Flexibility, Adaptability, Creativity, Problem Solving, Emotional Intelligence, Personal Productivity, Grit and 360 Communication skills will drive the future of work.
These are all inherent in a “Growth Mindset”.
In January 2020, Professor Foster of Yale predicted that 40% of current Fortune 500 companies would no longer exist in 10 years’ time.
Within weeks, the Coronavirus pandemic wiped out some of these overnight.
To survive in the 2020s businesses and organisations need to be agile, nimble and flexible to survive, they need the “best of the best” tech in their sector, democratic leadership and show a strong “learning culture”.
Carol works with businesses facing disruptive threats, unexpected obstacles, legacy scenarios or crucially where change is just not sticking – where cultural shifts are necessary across the workforce.
Carol utilises Maverick Thinking and Leadership styles to construct future looking 'Strategies for Growth' and work with teams and boards to deliver the necessary cultural change to deliver them.
This work is often “counter-intuitive” and creates opportunities for personal and organisational growth by:
-
Seeing obstacles and challenges as opportunities
-
Unlocking curiosity and intuition
-
Valuing failure as a learning experience
How Carol does this
​
Carol starts at the top with CEOs, Founders or Directors.
She establishes the “pain” and the perceived problem.
​
She then considers the goals and current scenario, before meeting the relevant teams, from Board downwards to test understanding of the scenario, pain and problems.
All this work is Coaching based.
It is about drawing out the issues, opportunities and action plans that can deliver sustainable change across the organisation or business, in a timely fashion, and be owned and implemented by the teams involved.
Throughout the process she works with Senior and Emerging Leaders and Board Members to connect with their Maverick Mindset to become World-Class leaders to ensure agility, adaptability and innovation become key drivers of future performance.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
