Scroll to see Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the premise of Leadership GLUE?
Leadership GLUE is the ability a leader has to build strong bonds, increase employee engagement, and drive organizational success.
In the Leadership GLUE book, training and coaching programs, C-Suite executives and business owners specifically learn how to build the guardrails to protect their Vision and Values and how to develop the Conditions for Success for themselves and their team.
Our clients grow their businesses by going from Hands ON to Hands FREE to Hand OFF.
This proven process gives the team the ability, responsibility and accountability to expand their bench strength and allows the Leader to get on to the next big thing...not exiting or retiring, but living out his/her life's purpose.
2. What exactly does Hand ON to Hands FREE to Hand OFF process look like?
Hands ON: Teaching, training and relationship building
Hands FREE: The Messy Middle where team members demonstrate their ability to work with less supervision
Hand OFF: Like a runner handing off the baton to the next equally capable teammate, this phase gives a leader or owner the freedom and flexibility for the next 'big thing,' whether that is a new product line, new sales initiative, a sabbatical, or even exiting the business.
3. How Quickly will I see results?
Hmmm...interesting question. The truth is that change can be difficult when resisted...but when you initiate growth and development for yourself you are 'shedding old skin' for the new you. Your team will embrace change when you are consistent and congruent.
1. Results will come from your intention combined with taking action. This is in your control.
2. There is a natural incubation period needed for the brain and soul to allow GLUE to become part of your business DNA. It takes time to organically embed GLUE into your natural way of working.
3. The shift to a Leadership Glue Business will happen very quickly at the C-Suite level, but will take about 6 - 8 months to cascade throughout the organization.
