All of our work is based on the principle that leaders learn by doing. Our experiences are based on best practices in action learning, theories of business innovation, and frameworks of organizational psychology. Whether it is an intensive two-day meeting with your executive committee to address how they will lead through a crisis, a custom action learning program for your senior leaders, an investment in a new executive leadership team, or an assessment of your top talent to ensure you have the capabilities to deliver on your strategy, we can help.
Often our clients want to move beyond programmatic solutions. Instead they want to develop their executives' leadership capacity in situ to maximize relevance and impact. We regularly work with our clients to solve critical business problems such as driving organizational change, improving innovation, and adjusting to a market disruption or internal restructuring. In these instances we help executives develop their leadership capacity while solving a business problem that’s critical to their organization’s success.
Here’s what our clients can expect from a Pivot Consulting engagement:
- Thought experts. We provide you with a 3-4 person senior team that includes a thought leader on the area of focus (such as innovation or strategy), a change specialist, and a leadership expert to help you address your critical issue while refining your leadership approach.
- A cleaner line of sight on the problem. As the pragmatist John Dewey once said, “A problem well put is half solved.” Our projects begin by our working closely with you to diagnose the nature of the problem and evaluate its implications on your business.
- A high-leverage solution. We never assign unnecessary resources to a problem. Our philosophy involves concentrated intervention precisely where it will make a difference. We will work with you to find the most robust and economical levers for creating change.
- A transformational experience. At Pivot we not only help you make a material difference in your business, but we help you improve your insight into your leadership capability. Your business circumstances may change but the residual capacity we develop together will last long after we’ve left.
