Executive Development
ABEL consultants work one-on-one with executives, managers and high potentials to develop exceptional leadership skills, solve personal and interpersonal issues and create a culture of integrity and accountability within themselves and the organization.
Different than business consulting where the consultant takes an advisory role for the overall business, executive development is a relationship between the consultant and an individual client within a leadership role, based around the personal and the interpersonal goals of the client within the context of the organization.
As experienced executives and leaders ourselves, ABEL consultants assist executives to navigate challenging situations that inevitably arise within a leadership role. By being a trusted confidant and a thought partner to the executives, the consultant will provide objective advice and council to achieve the desired outcomes.
New Leaders
Common among corporate America, individuals are often promoted into leadership roles for being good at what they do, not for having the requisite skills for leading others. These new leaders often find themselves in unfamiliar territory, especially when they are elevated to having responsibility over their longtime peers.
ABEL consultants work with these new executives to develop and nurture their leadership acumen and to ensure that the organization gains significant value from promoting the individual into that role.
For new leaders, we focus on skills such as:
- Self confidence as a leader
- Team building
- Influence and delegation
- Effective Communications
- Transitioning from "doer" to "leader"
- Time Allocation
Seasoned Leaders
Leaders who have been in a senior role for an extended period of time sometime develop "blinders" or reach a plateau. Over time, if the executive does not refresh, recharge or enhance their skills, they may begin to lose effectiveness and will not be able to maintain a level of peak performance.
The ABEL constants will work with these leaders to have them gain fresh perspective over their area of charge. By availing a process for the executive to step away from the day-to-day activities and clearly evaluate their skills, the ABEL consultant will be able to provide a framework for improved leadership competencies and develop action plans to build on their strengths and address their weaknesses.
For seasoned leaders, we focus on skills such as:
- Strategy Development
- Personnel Development
- Navigating change
- Overcoming obstacles
- Work / Life Balance
