  Executive Coaching Yields ROI of Almost Six Times its Cost 

  Manchester, Inc. Study of Fortune 1000 companies.  January 2004

 “Fortune magazine reported the results of a poll of executives and upper level managers who had six to twelve months of coaching with a Masters or Doctoral level executive coach.   

The executives were asked to give a ‘conservative estimate of the monetary payoff from the coaching you received’.  The survey demonstrated that the recipients  valued the executive coaching at six times the cost that their company paid for the service.”

 LEADERSHIP TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT 

  "A team is a group organized to work together to accomplish a set of objectives that cannot be achieved effectively by individuals."

  "People are the highest producing asset of production in any corporation...People have the highest return on investment; there is no doubt of that."  — Professor John Sullivan, San Francisco State at the HR Forum 2003 "Thinking Like the CEO...Or Becoming One." Quoted in Human Resource Executive magazine 2003.

The Braithewaite Group partners with your firm’s executives and management team to build and execute individual and group leadership development programs and activities that align to strategic objectives and bottom line results.  If your firm wants a high performing leadership team that can thrive in today’s difficult business environment, our group activities are custom designed to meet your needs. In today’s fast-paced and highly competitive business environment, having a high performance leadership team is crucial to a firm's success.

Whether co-located, dispersed, or virtual, a high performance team:

 ►Knows their roles and goals and are invested in delivering the desired results

...Could each member of your management team clearly define their role?  Explain what performance levels are expected of them?  Clearly state what your firm's strategic goals are and what they are doing within their department or area of expertise to support those goals?

 ►Deals with conflict openly and effectively while maintaining high levels of trust and performance

...Can each and every management team member at your organization effectively handle conflict while maintaining high morale and levels of output?  Do employees trust their supervisors enough to tell them the truth?

 ►Sets group norms for working together that assure a common understanding of what’s important

...Have your management employees created teams that work well together and produce the expected results?  Does each employee have a line of sight from what they do each day to how that work impacts the bottom line and strategic objectives?

 ►Challenges itself and others to perform better and achieve desired outcomes

...Do your employees at all levels within the organization push for improvements? 

 ►Conducts efficient and productive meetings

...Are your meetings a waste of time or does real work actually get done?

 ►Celebrates success and regularly provides productive feedback on performance

...When was the last time you told an employee that he or she did a good job?  When was the last time someone told you that?

 ►Demonstrates a sense of urgency in setting priorities and providing resources

...Do your leaders know what your firm's priorities are?  Can they remove barriers?  Do they help or hinder in getting the work done?

If your leadership team needs to improve its abilities in any of these areas, The Braithewaite Group will create a customized program for your firm; facilitate the activities and follow-up to measure results.
