On Leadership & Team Building

• Leadership can be learned.  
• Great leaders come in all shapes and sizes, but they all care deeply about their people and their organization.  
• All great leaders are learners who always strive to know more...about themselves, about the competition, about how their customers are changing.
  
• The best leaders create great executive teams and a clear mission and vision for the future.

On Strategic Planning

• Strategy is about making the right choices.
  
• It's about knowing your market and your customers, and knowing your capabilities and matching those up with a plan that you can (and will!) implement.
•  Good strategic planning helps you to say no to many competing priorities.  It includes dreaming...but at the end it includes concrete actions that you will do tomorrow. 

On ExecutiveCoaching

• Working with an executive coach gives you a safe space to explore your leadership behaviors, and to set goals. 
• A trusted coach can help you hold yourself accountable for those goals.
•  Linking coaching to strategic planning can be a powerful way to stay on track with your planning.
