Welcome to my new blog, On Bambi’s Brain.

I am excited to share my thoughts from more than 15 years of experience in Coaching and Consulting CEO’s and Senior Leaders; in addition to more than 15 years of being a Senior Executive in growing a multi-billion dollar organization.

I intend this blog makes a difference for the leaders I work with, as well as to stimulate dialogues on your different perspectives.

My view is there is always something new to learn. And I believe it is critical for leaders to continue to learn. I continue to create opportunities for my own learning, believing that I cannot serve my clients or expect them to do anything I am not or have not been willing to do myself; in fact I still have a business coach.

I have found that the growth of an organization is directly correlated to the growth of it’s leaders. After all organizations don’t perform, people do.

In my experience organizations where the leaders’ consistently gain new capacities, perspectives and methods are those that are most successful. In fact, I measured the results for more than five years of 10+ divisions within an organization, and those divisions with Leaders who were open to learning, that were being coached and gaining new perspectives and methods consistently produced better results in the growth and profitability of their divisions. In addition their divisions had work environments that brought out the best in their people which resulted in higher customer service measures and employee fulfillment scores as well as low employee turnover percentages.

Being a great Leader requires courage. I am committed to Leaders being all they can be.
In fact one of the things that I observe in organizations is that Leadership is mostly missing. I find that many organizations that I go into are over managed and under led.  How are you expanding your capacity?

Here’s to a new level of Leadership for us all!

I welcome your comments and questions. I look forward to some stimulating dialogues!
