INDIVIDUAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL NEEDS ANALYSIS
Our 20+ years of experience combined with our Universal Leadership Model and our robust Needs Analysis and Leadership Benchmarking system makes it easy for us to help you quickly pinpoint the highest-priority needs of both your organization (or team) and your own individual leadership performance. This is the first step to finding your leadership leverage.
CUSTOM LEADER DEVELOPMENT PLAN
We will help you create a customized Leader Development Plan that maps out a specific path to rapidly shore up any obvious leadership skill deficits and quickly close any leadership performance gaps. This Custom Leader Development plan guarantees your ability to massively elevate your performance in just a few months.
CUSTOM TEAM DEVELOPMENT PLAN
The Organizational Needs Analysis (above) will inform the fastest path to team performance. We will use our years of experience to outline a written plan that you will use to rapidly elevate your team's performance over the next six months.
PERSONALIZED TRAINING PORTAL
We have more than 20-years worth of management and leadership training material that forms the basis of five published books (with three more on the way). Based on your needs analysis, individual and team development plan we will provide a personalized training portal with micro-learning videos and handouts to massively expedite your progress.
ELITE LEADER TOOLKIT
Leadership is a team sport. Most other leadership training and coaching programs fail to realize that if your team doesn't have access to the same techniques and tools you are learning, then it handicaps your leadership. We provide your an Elite Leader Toolkit with presentation slides, handouts and tools you will share with your team for maximum results.
ATTENTION MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL
We have been on the cutting edge of productivity, time and "attention" management for more than 20 years. We have synthesized the leading thinking and best practices around individual and team productivity going beyond "time management" to "attention management." Implementing this protocol will help you reclaim a full day each week!
DYNAMIC STRATEGIC PLANNING SYSTEM
One-year business plans and budget driven planning systems are outdated and amount to steering by looking into your rear-view mirror. Our Dynamic Strategic Planning System represents a cutting-edge synthesis of the best practices from the major consulting firms and leading experts that is customized for your specific team and functional needs.
MOTIVATION MULTIPLIER METHODOLOGY
Few leaders are naturally good at motivating employees and teams. In fact, most leaders have no clue about motivation psychology. Our Motivation Multiplier Methodology massively increases employee motivation and your ability to show up as a highly motivating leader so that your employees offer their discretionary effort to your projects.
FLAWLESS PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL
Managers are not evaluated by how busy they are or how many tasks they complete; rather, your success is measured by how projects you can bring successfully across the finish line each quarter (and each year). Yet most managers and executives are weak in project management skills. This protocol will make you an absolute ace at project management.
EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE GAP ELIMINATOR
Employee performance gaps represent one of the most difficult and frustrating parts of managers' jobs. This powerful tool makes it much easier to identify and close employee performance gaps using a combination of explicit expectations, feedback and skillful management of assumptions, interpretations, delegation and communication.
PRIORITIZATION MATRIX METHODOLOGY
All manager are familiar with the Pareto Principle (the "80/20" rule) and know that 80% of their results come from 20% of their activities. Yet, sadly, few can tell you what those 20% activities actually are! This failure to prioritize those high-leverage activities undermines performance. This powerful tool will ensure you are 100% focused on the right priorities.
ELITE DELEGATION SYSTEM
Effective delegation is a central component of high-performance management and leadership. Most leaders have various issues with delegation which is often quite tricky. Your Elite Delegation System spells out exactly how you can weave all of the best practices into your delegation methodology, ensuring high levels of accountability and optimum results.
MILITARY GRADE SENSEMAKING
Sensemaking has become one of the hottest C-Suite trends because it forms the foundation for all strategic thinking, problem solving and decision making. While popular at the top business schools and the Pentagon, most leaders have lack training and tools in this area. Our sensemaking techniques and tool kit is the best you can buy at any price.
WEEKLY SMALL GROUP WORKSHOPS & COACHING ON ZOOM
Leadership is a team sport. Like other team sports, it is best practiced in groups. While 1:1 coaching is a valuable add on, our 22+ years of experience shows that it is actually the small group workshops and coaching calls (on Zoom) that produce the fastest performance gains for leaders. Just 1-2 hours a week with us on Zoom rapidly transforms your performance!
ONE-ON-ONE COACHING (OPTIONAL)
While most of the leadership performance gains are derived from the practice-based small group workshops and coaching calls (on Zoom), adding supplemental 1:1 coaching can work as a "multiplier." The highly-individualized "private deep dives" you take with your coach can quickly slingshot you past your biggest obstacles, fears, or weaknesses.

Greatly evolved my leadership skills...
Coaching with Brett has greatly evolved my leadership skills. The Leadership OS helped me break down challenges that appear abstract and subjective and make them concrete and actionable. Brett's coaching helped me confidently navigate complex and contributed significantly to my career success over the last two years. Highly recommended!
– Andy M, Executive VP of Design, Major FinTech Company, San Francisco, California
Revenue doubled, profitability tripled...
Brett and his team trained and coached my management team for two years. In the process our revenue doubled and profitability tripled. Our employee engagement and culture vastly improved and our company valuation quadrupled! The only reason the engagement ended is we were acquired by a very well-known tech giant. It was a very successful exit. Thank you.
– Howard N., Founder, a high-end design firm that served Fortune 10 companies before being acquired, San Francisco, California

We put our whole executive team through the program; after less than 6 months, every member of the team is better at giving feedback and holding each other accountable. We are already all significantly better managers and leaders now compared to when we started.
