Making a move is about making a plan for change. But before making a plan, senior management may want to consider these issues: How to find time to devote to the relocation process? How to include the “entire” organization, and when is that necessary? Who will find vendors and resources...who will manage them? Are new policies and procedures needed? What types of communication will facilitate the transition? These are the questions we help CEOs and their teams answer to ensure a successful relocation.For more information click the Cohesive Move Management link.
Many organizations have powerful resources that often go untapped and unrecognized during tough economic times. These resources are the people that come to work every day, yet hesitate to share their skills and true potential because of misconceptions, lack of training and anxiety about performance. Breaking Through, coaching for inspired performance, acts as a catalyst and resource for organizations that recognize the importance of every team member breaking through ineffective behaviors and beliefs into initiative, creativity, confidence and cooperation. Customized coaching programs are available for senior leaders, managers and line supervisors. Coaching is also available to support developmental programs for staff.
Organizations that enter into the innovation zone step into the unknown. That can be an uncomfortable feeling.

Single or multiple day equine events are designed to assist you in developing positive strengths in yourself and with others. The work is done in partnership with specially-trained horses. There is a progressive series of activities between the horses and the humans which leads to a greater sense of connectivity and awareness both in your positive emotions and relationships.
Why Horses? Horses’ brains are not designed for abstract thinking and problem solving abilities. This allows them to be non-judgmental, extremely sensitive and responsive. As prey animals, they are attuned to the environment and have the ability to read and reflect body language, human energy flow, emotional tones and mirror them back to us. Horses teach us patience, gentleness, self-confidence, perceptiveness and awareness. For more information click the Equine Leadership Program link.
