Leadership & Individual Development

Everything starts with self awareness and enlightenment. That is the foundation for our interaction with others as well as for our happiness.

The Harrison Assessment reveals deeply rooted insights that determine essential high performance traits and those that will accelerate or hinder performance related to specific positions. It reveals a person’s work preferences and behavioral competencies. It is in these areas that developmental opportunities exist to achieve or increase personal satisfaction and measurable job performance.

Executive coaching

Padgett Performance has coached numerous C-Level Executives & Top Sales Executives. This provides a double benefit to an organization: Not only does the executive’s performance and effectiveness improve, but also, modeling great leadership can have a transformative effect on your entire organization. We can help identify strengths to build on and highlight specific areas where performance can be improved.

Leadership development

Leaders are not born. They are the result of experience and mentoring or coaching. Leadership Coaching with the Harrison Assessment is ideal for any employee wishing to better understand his/her management and leadership style, behavioral and personal traits and preferences. This is especially important with today’s accelerating handoffs of leadership from senior to junior talent.

Supervisory training

Firms look at successful employees to graduate to positions as supervisors. However, Most employees ascend to supervisory positions without adequate preparation. Trial and error is a costly way to educate new supervisors, both to their subordinates, their supervisors, and to themselves.  We have interactive courses that build responsibility and credibility, as well as helping managers with communications skills, handling difficult situations, organizational savvy, and working with their boss.

Change management

Time is not on your side in adapting to the changes in business today. We also recognize that people are the critical element. Working with top management we drive a tightly managed process that introduces a discipline and a focus on key items that produces rapid financial results. Our goal is to make certain that change starts on the right track and is monitored to guarantee it remains focused on the objectives.

Business is Going Through A Revolution

Entire industries are undergoing fundamental economic restructuring. Retailing, banking, airline, construction and health care are just a few of the industries that are being severely tested.

No one is immune to these changes. The global recession demonstrates that American business can no longer afford to operate with poorly utilized resources. Competition from the rest of the world requires that we produce our goods and services competitively. Furthermore, these pressures will intensify.

These trends create an environment in which every company, without exception, will go through distress or crisis some-time in its life. Today’s companies must do more with less and manage all aspects of their business well if they are to succeed.

Yet, with good leadership and a strong team, companies can anticipate and adjust.  Some of the most successful brands have emerged in times of turmoil. Whether companies survive and prosper, or wither and die, depends on their reaction. And that depends on people’s ability to work together creatively and effectively.
