PIVOT is a leadership program that companies have been searching for – a customizable, practical and hands-on learning experience with immediate application. Organizations too often invest in ineffective one-and-done workshops, or standardized, cookie-cutter programs that fail to reflect their organization’s specific needs or make a lasting impact on their culture. Pivot is here to change this.
Our design of Pivot is based on our combined experience of over 50 years of client service, including 4,400 hours of client coaching and team facilitation sessions. Pivot integrates a variety of tools and techniques that work in the fast-paced environments in which high-performing leaders operate. Stop investing in programs that have no lasting impact. Connect with us to learn more about how this program will give your leaders the tools and support they require to pivot and elevate their leadership for lasting and sustainable impact.
PIVOT is a cohort program that blends in-person and virtual group sessions, delivered over 6 to 9 months. The content is tailored to the specific needs and interests of your organization. Each session includes in-depth group discussion and peer learning that builds a deeper understanding and sustained application of fundamental competencies. The session topics are deliberately tiered so each session links to the next for reinforcement of learning.
Between sessions, structured check-in’s and on-the-job activities foster continuous development throughout the program. The goals and objectives referenced during the program are purposely aligned to your organization to make them relevant to participants while also advancing the company’s goals.
Each session focuses on just one powerful but key concept so the learning sticks. Emphasizing just one tool or framework ensures participants can quickly apply their learning as a pivot point in how they lead their teams.
Time is a precious commodity — especially to leaders — so any between-session work is woven into participants’ daily work life rather than adding to their plates. After learning the key concept, leaders will be asked to use it, notice the impact, and then adjust as needed. Each subsequent session will kick off with a report-out of what they noticed and how they modified the tool to fit their particular style or need.
Personalized reminders, delivered in anticipation of the need and with the participant’s involvement, are used to help participants apply the learning when it matters most to them.
Pivot’s sessions flow in three phases to develop the most impactful competencies that agile leaders need. To meet the specific development objectives of your organization, we can further customize the mix of topics within each phase below to create a bespoke yet grounded experience for your leaders.

We offer a variety of self-assessment tools (DiSC, CliftonStrengths, Barrett Personal Values, and others) plus 360 assessments to identify key strengths, leadership capabilities, and one’s authentic values to promote ever-deeper self-knowledge. Because we are focused on the future, we refer to our 360 tool as “Feed Forward” rather than feedback. The selection of tools is based on your organization’s existing use and experience with assessments, and goals for organizational development.
