Executive Partnerships

To help executives achieve personal and organizational change, David Seregow partners with executive leaders and teams in three types of collaborative relationships. Most client engagements include all three.

Barriers To A $Billion

Barriers To A $Billion (B2A$B) are highly interactive sessions that engage your executive team in a macro-level, whole-organization review and in-depth assessment of the factors essential to achieving and maintaining strategic impact and catalyzing change. Participants are challenged to take a realistic, candid assessment of the organization and it's ability to execute strategy and maintain differentiation.

The B2A$B process enables your leadership team to identify and remove performance barriers, whether moving toward the inflection point to a $Billion, or beyond.

Strategic Facilitation

David works with the senior team to create a candid and interactive context in which he facilitates:

• Organizational Review
• Evaluation
• Decision Making and Planning
• Team Building
• Communication
• Change Leadership

Executive Coaching

Through executive coaching, David provides executive leaders personal guidance tailored to individual and team needs. Coaching is provided through both face-to-face and virtual interaction and can be conducted on a planned, regular basis, or on an as-needed, just-in-time basis.
