FAQs

Q: How soon can I see results?

A: Quickly. We validate continuously as we go.

Q: How much disruption is involved?

A: We fit into what you can do now, as we figure out what the company SHOULD be doing.

Q: How much of MY time will you need?

A: We’re not going to become your second job. Instead, you’ll get more done in less time, and you’ll do less because other work will be properly delegated. Plus the scope of what we work on will be our boundary — we don't overstep it or need more than we established.

Q: Private: Will this expose what I'm doing wrong in the business, or my weaknesses?

A: Only to you, and in a way that gets you to the results you want. Plus we mostly work with teams, so the team will see what needs to change — no individual is called out publicly.

Our Proven System, in Detail: The Four Avenues for Success

Courageous Leadership recognizes the importance of comprehensive, strategic solutions for organizations who are serious about deep change and profound success. For this reason, we have developed our Four Avenues for Success methodology: Truth, Talent, Training, Tell.

Pursuing excellence in any one of these areas is of great benefit to an organization, but it is only when the strategy is met with essential talent, continuous development, and a committed workforce that the best things can be achieved. For this reason, Courageous Leadership is partnered with industry leaders in recruitment, development, and branding to provide complete solutions for our clients.

TRUTH

Before engaging the other T’s of Talent, Training, and Tell, our first engagements with clients address Truth. One unique trait of Courageous Leadership’s approach to organizational consulting is we first work with leadership to understand and define the “ideal state” of the organization before auditing the current state of the business. We cannot adequately understand data around the present situation without interpreting it into the greater picture of what the organization is committed to being for the future.

Once we have a sufficient understanding of the “ideal state,” we can begin to define what metrics need to be used in an audit of current performance and marketplace position. While this list is not exhaustive, we may measure: financial performance, process times, development initiatives, customer satisfaction, etc. Because we are interested in both what a company is doing and what the results are, our measurements always include a good ratio of lead indicators to lag indicators. We use lead indicators to measure inputs (i.e. hours spent on employee development) and lag indicators to measure outputs (i.e. profitability and employee satisfaction). Because lead indicators
