Get on the Same Page

Know your story.

Tell your story.

When everyone is communicating properly, the benefits to your organization are clear:

• Differentiation in the marketplace

• Strenthening the impact of your team as frontline brand ambassadors

• Industry leadership and influence

• Clarity and certainty for investors, media, analysts, and regulators

• Building, deepening and extending relationships with key stakeholders

• Recruitment & retention

• Creating internal clarity and cohesion around your purpose

Everyone in your organization, from CEO to intern, should be able to tell your story accurately no matter the channel, internally and externally.  There is great power in the network effect of everyone on your team talking from the same page.  Successful organizations leverage this fact.

Narrative Building

Does everyone know your story and are they telling it with impact?

• The foundation of effective organizational communication is the narrative -- your "story."  Every communications flows from and is rooted in your narrative

• Not everyone -- even at the most senior levels -- emphasizes the most important strategic aspects of your organization consistently and clearly. Closing the gap of even differences in emphasis can make all the difference.

• Through a series of interviews we will assess a baseline understanding of your value proposition, explore areas of agreement, and uncover areas where emphasis diverges

• We will develop a usable narrative that will guide how your team communicates so that the most important aspects get heard loud and clear

• We will coach your team on the best, easiest and most effective ways to communicate in any channel to any audience

Media, Presentation, Communications Coaching

Is there an outcome attached to your team’s communications?  There should be.

• The principles of effective communication are the same no matter what the channel -- no matter who the audience

• Effective communications coaching is not about memorizing tips and tricks; it is about understanding what language works and why and applying those principles to everyday communications

• We emphasize the outcome-based approach of communicating -- that a purpose or objective can and should be attached to how your team communicates.  Internally as well as externally, formally as well as informally.

• We make communicating with purpose easier, measurable and effective

Professional Development

Do you have team members who could use some coaching to keep sharp, get focus, and be more effective

• Very frequently, when team members are promoted, they lack a degree of confidence in meetings and other internal and external engagements.  Sometimes they need to “show up” more and “own the room” 

• New hires often have trouble assimilating to corporate culture and “reading the room,” especially in a time of remote working

• We help team members become more confident and effective

• They will learn how to increase the quality of their participation 

• They will grow and become more effective managers and mentors

Team Building

Is your team performing at the highest level?

• In order for your team to function at peak efficiency and for maximum effect, they need confidence in their abilities, their colleague’s abilities, and the support of their manager

• Your team also needs to have a sense of “the big picture” strategy so that they can execute well and think beyond their particular remit

• You need your team to deliver, not just to “dial it in.”

• We will facilitate your team meeting -- off-site or in-person -- helping them to understand the larger picture and giving them the tools and confidence they need to function more effectively as a group and individually

• We will help your team develop and use practical feedback loops across your and other divisions
