Team Performance Accelerated

"Focus helped us meld a group of highly-talented, independent managers into a high-performing management team. The results were nothing short of phenomenal. With Focus, we learned not only the power of the team, but also the growth it affords each team member."

–R. S. Barna
former publisher CMP Media, Popular Science

"Thanks for all the great work! I found the experience renewing, inspiring, and full of hope. I felt I LEARNED a great deal."

–Gigi Antoni
CEO, Big Thought

I love hearing from a team that they've made more progress in a couple days from our work together than they had in weeks or months leading up to that point - and I've heard it many times. Why? Because most teams jump into the task at hand with limited mindsets, trust, and ability to dialogue, all of which can be playing into the very problems they're now trying to address. We help them step back, get the bigger picture, know their strengths, weaknesses, and where they need to focus to fulfill their purpose. We also help them get real, creating dialogue that creates learning, and allows the team to do bold things well. I love that part, too.

- Dr. Ginny Whitelaw

From an executive team rethinking its business model, to a cross-functional team resolving a crisis, to a skunkworks team finding the future, increasingly the complex work of the "new normal" falls to teams, where the stakes are high and time is short.

We reduce the risk of team dysfunction and accelerate the delivery of real results - and we can measure it.

Team performance accelerated...

by rapidly creating the foundation for "get real" dialogue that gets real results;
by assessing the team climate against its purpose, and developing the patterns needed for team success;
by reflection and facilitated, just-in-time learning tailored to the team's purpose and members.

Our team facilitation has helped...

a recently-merged executive team get to know one another, develop a shared vision and strategy, and develop a 90-day plan for aligning their organization.
a conflict-ridden customer service team understand their dysfunction and develop patterns that helped them work together, engage customers, and solve customer problems.
a senior management team for a large consulting firm become more competitve and turnaround declining revenues.
a cross-functional business and technology team understand their differences and become more successful using a pattern-balanced approach to their work.
the new leadership team of a financial services company "jump start" their work together, accomplishing more in 3 days than they had in 3 months.
