Executive Advisory
Receive unbiased, objective advice and counsel from seasoned executive coaches in a trusted thought partnership.
It Doesn’t Have to be Lonely at the Top
Our executive consultants have the combination of deep knowledge and broad experience in people, organizations, and business that makes them uniquely valuable. They understand the executive’s world, know about change, and can advise on complex interpersonal and political dynamics. Furthermore, they are willing to provide the feedback that leaders will not receive from others — asking tough questions and challenging assumptions even when the leader believes they are right.

Lead Through Complexity, Not Control
The CEO of a publicly traded fintech firm had led the company through massive growth and its IPO over two decades. When he decided to step down, he wasn’t leaving entirely—he’d remain as a senior research fellow. This created unusual complexity: Who had final authority? How would power transfer? And how could the CEO step back without destabilizing the business?
This wasn’t a coaching situation. It required real-time strategic advisory.
We partnered with the CEO to help him navigate company politics, manage a complex board dynamic, support succession planning—even when he disagreed with the board’s choice—and lead through crises without undermining new leadership. Together, we developed a systematic transition plan, framed decisions about future roles, and preserved investor and team confidence during a time of uncertainty.
- Navigate the politicsWe mapped power dynamics across the board and coached the CEO on where to engage and when to step back.
- Let go without disappearingWe helped the CEO transfer authority while maintaining strategic influence and preserving key relationships.
- Shift from control to counselWhen crises hit, he led through others, advising rather than directing, and maintaining market trust through stability.
