Executive teams have the accountability to develop a strategic course for their companies and to lead their people in that direction. Especially difficult, when there is a change in direction, is gaining commitment to that strategy from executives and their people.

Each executive team member comes to the group with a different perspective, formed by his or her assumptions, priorities, and frames of reference.  Consequently, teams often get mired in details and avoid important issues.

To alleviate those problems and create a better understanding of the process, Levinson Institute consultants apply principles that have worked successfully with senior teams they have guided in hundreds of companies.  They involve four fundamental dimensions:

Levinson consultants create a broader range of options with regard to accountability, conflict, change, and effective leadership.  They get important issues on the table; and conduct open, honest, discussions that lead to better decision making.  In particular, Levinson consultants provide:

• An outside perspective;

• An accountability framework for clarifying decision making and the process leading to those decisions;

• An ability to put issues into a broader context;

• Well-honed skills in facilitation, coaching, and problem solving; and

• Knowledge, long-time experience, and carefully developed methodologies.

Levinson presents new and exciting possibilities to executive teams through a variety of avenues, from facilitating off-site retreats, to attending team meetings, to conducting formalized training sessions that introduce concepts from the On Leadership and Strategic Organization seminars.
