Accelerate individual development

Executive coaching unlocks your leaders’ potential to maximize their performance and that of your organization. It is an accelerator, a catalyst and a support.

It’s about: Asking questions, motivating, challenging individual thought processes that hinder potential, providing a “mirror effect’ to increase self awareness, exposing untapped perspectives through powerful questions, identifying and unleashing potential, encouraging “limitless” thinking, and supporting problem solving.

On an individual level, we offer different platforms of executive and leadership coaching, including:

• C-Level Coaching: C-level executives need a safe place to have their ‘growing’ and ‘learning’ conversations. We act as coach, guide, confidant, and challenger to those that carry the burden of executive level leadership

• High Potential Coaching: Accelerate the readiness of your high potential leaders to take to the next position. They learn how to deal with leadership challenges and obstacles, build awareness on personal strengths to better tap into them, and increase vigilance and development on their blind spots.

• New Position Coaching: Taking a new position is never easy. What has been the individual’s success drivers in the past might hold them back in a new position. Coaching helps leaders to fill up the “new costume,” to focus on the right topics and priorities, to position your new team for success, to manage intentionally your “stakeholders’ etc.

• Specific Coaching: We all have specific development areas where we want to get clarity, improve, and find new ways to see and operate: intercultural challenges, impostor syndrome,  resilience and stress management etc. Coaching can help you on this journey.

Level-up team dynamics

Competition can copy your product, your business model, your manufacturing process… and they can hire your people. But they cannot copy your team performance. Your teams and their dynamics are what can take your entire organization to the top. Excilience levels up your teams’ performance and functioning.

Excilience has expertise with many kinds of teams and particular specialization with top leadership teams to optimize their effectiveness and performance. We pride ourselves in our track record of leadership teams because their impact is exponential and cascades through the organization.

Each team is different; each engagement is different. Here are few examples:

• Facilitation to build high performing leadership teams: We love working with Leadership Teams that need to reach the next level of performance or find a second wind. We also help newly established teams that want to accelerate the “forming” stage,” smooth the “storming phase,” and reach as quickly as possible the “performing” stage. With our team toolbox and exercise, we identify your team’s strengths, surface your norms and styles, and we enhance your mutual trust, accountability, communication and collaboration.

• Business visioning and alignment sessions: We feel grateful that we have a history of providing excellent support to leadership teams to craft their vision, get alignment, and build a roadmap that can be cascaded in the organization.

• Creativity workshops: Our creativity & innovation workshops give you and your team a language and structure for developing creativity skills and managing the innovation process, together helping you to create value for your customers.

Accelerate organizational change

Excilience provides end-to-end support to our clients who want to transform their business. We help you translate your strategy into something you can operationalize, by aligning the tangible elements of the organization - people, structure and process – with the intangible elements - motivations, mindsets, relationships and culture. This enables you to drive true and sustainable behavioral and organizational change. We come with a proven toolbox and work side-by-side with your team to facilitate change, including:

• Organizational Design

• Cultural Change and Transformations (post merger integrations and transitions, reorganization etc.)

• Leadership Development Programs

• HR consulting

Accelerate post merger integration

“Cultural factors and organizational alignment are critical to the success (and avoiding failure) in mergers. Yet leaders often don’t give culture the attention it warrants—an oversight that can lead to poor results. Some 95 percent of executives describe cultural fit as critical to the success of integration. Yet 25 percent cite a lack of cultural cohesion and alignment as the primary reason integration efforts fails.”

Our teams love to work on Mergers& Acquisition on various phases:

• Before closure through on HR due diligence

• On Post Merger Integration.

Our value is to work with the leadership teams of both companies to merge to support human dynamics and address organizational challenges that could hinder the expected value of the merger.  We support our client to:

• Align expectations of both parties

• Design a shared and agreed upon vision, new governance and organization to reach the business objectives

• Create the conditions for the new executive team to become high performing

• Support the emergence of a shared corporate culture

• Smooth the transition for the teams through a change management plan

• ….and provide support when needed on the “human dynamics” side of this integration

Strengthen your organizational leadership programs

Leadership Training requires much more than transferring knowledge to your leaders; it means designing development experiences that change the way they think and operate. We strengthen your organization through your next generation of leaders, working side-by-side with you to shape and craft a leadership development path “made to measure.” We offer two categories of program design and execution:

• Action Learning Programs: Your high-potential talents tackle real-life business problems in these programs as they prepare to take on broader leadership roles.

• Custom Programs: Using a variety of live and virtual strategies via Excilience Academy, our custom programs accelerate development of future enterprise leaders and other high-potential talent to rise to challenges and seize opportunities on various topics: Leadership, Change Management, Your First 90 Days, Leading A Virtual Team, Fostering A Multicultural Team Etc…

• Our motto is: keep it real. Our leadership development programs are built on real-world business challenges, delivering skills and insights that can be rapidly deployed on the job.
