LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT SERVICES including:
  • Integral Intelligence ™ The New Frontier in Leadership

    Recent leadership theory has reinforced the need for emotional intelligence. Integral Intelligence, the next evolution in developing high potential leaders, provides leverage for critical decision-making, expands a leader’s repertoire of choices and creates the energy and resilience necessary to successfully address the complexity of an ever-changing, interconnected world. Fusing the best of our 40 combined years of leadership development work, Donna Stoneham and Pat Weger (please see BIO) have created an innovative approach to leadership development, which builds capacity to lead from an integral perspective.

    Utilizing a peer-to-peer executive coaching format, this powerful program develops leaders, teams and organizations to their maximum potential by supporting the utilization of all aspects of intelligence available for effective leadership. These include: cognitive (analytical), emotional, human relationship (relational), physical (somatic) and values-based (spiritual) intelligences. Please see our Model 3: Integral Intelligence

    This dynamic six to nine month learning experience is systemic, sustainable and cost-effective. It is designed for leadership teams and consists of one two-day workshop, followed by three one-day workshops that address developing integral intelligence, leading positive change, being an effective coach and using integral intelligence to accelerate results. Each workshop is followed by a series of peer-to-peer and executive coaching sessions to anchor the learning. Please see Integral Intelligence Participant Comments. This innovative leadership development process leverages the talents of the team and helps leaders transfer what they learn to effectively coach others, yielding a high return on investment.

  • Developing the Heart of a Leader - In a three-day Appreciative Leadership Summit and follow-up coaching process, leaders and managers share best practices and become grounded in the theory and practice of Appreciative Leadership in order that leadership may be liberated at every level in the organization and positive change can be created and sustained. (Please see Model 1: Guiding Principles of Appreciative Leaders)

  • Integral Executive Coaching Programs - One-on-one individual coaching programs with organizational leaders/leadership teams over a six-twelve month period. These sessions are individually designed to assist in the alignment of purpose, vision, values and actions in order to enhance the quality and effectiveness of the leader's work and life, while at the same time, supporting him/her to build cultures of positive change. (Please see Comments from Coaching Clients)

  • Leading to Learn - A yearlong collaborative leadership development process using Action Learning Methodology conducted with leadership teams. This program includes personal development, people development and organization development as primary components. The program is designed to build competency, trust and collaborative learning skills in order that participants leave the program prepared to lead the next group of leaders through a similar process. The outcome objective is to infuse collaborative learning and leadership throughout the organization, and ultimately, through the organization's value-chain.

  • Coaching for Positive Change - Through a two-day workshop, leaders and managers learn how to use the theory and practice of Appreciative Inquiry and Integral Coaching in on-going coaching efforts with people in their organizations in order to enhance their coaching skills and develop cultures of positive change.
