Leadership can occur at every level in an organization. 

--------------------------------

" Deborah and team worked with our group at Avion Management.  Over time we became a team of supervisors and workers from four Mail Boxes Etc. stores.  During a time of critical transition our team developed a compelling vision and built team trust.     There is no way I could have expected this new level of truth telling and commitment on our team.  It seems to be infused in the culture now - team members who were not in on the original training have caught the vision.  The increased team work also positively  impacted our financial bottom line."

"The reflective leadership team created an environment of trust and openness.  This inspired our team to move toward a higher calling of service to each other and to our customers.  

"This is true change management in action."

1. I often partner with a professional associate in the leadership team development work.  Teamwork development is most powerful when it is co-facilitated.
2. We start as your partner in change discussing how to achieve the desired results in the most seamless manner and with attention to managing change well from the very beginning.
3. We use an interviewing process and a variety of assessment tools to gain more perspective.  We will come in prepared to focus on the most important issues for your team. 
4. We assist in the development of a powerful and clear shared vision, and an increase in the competencies and skills to carry out that vision.  We focus on personal values, life-giving factors, possibilities, and renewal, rather than taking a problem focus, which may sustain a problem orientation.  We find that teams develop faster using appreciate inquiry and in conjunction with individual coaching and e-learning.
5. We use a variety of learning processes in this work including
   - presentations,
   - discussion-based learning (building on the experience already present in developing new learning),
   - experiential learning (learning by doing),
   - e-learning, and
   - individual coaching.
6. We will support team members to overcome barriers to change and we will support forthright, direct, productive and caring communication.  Our emphasis is on building trust teams.
7. We operate as a team and collaborate with you all the way.   
8. We value delighting our clients and their teams - giving them more than they expect from the process.
