When you partner with GrowthMatrix, your organization will become healthier. We’ll start with your most pressing organizational issue and move toward a resolution. We’ll help you remove roadblocks to individual leadership and performance, enhance team dynamics and productivity, and create an open and engaging work environment.

Our first-time client typically has an immediate “pain point” that needs attention requiring a 3-6 month engagement. Because of the unique role we fill, many clients continue to engage our services where we work directly with senior leadership to build and maintain organizational health to drive performance and business growth across the organization.

With SAOL™, you can embrace results-oriented leadership principles that result in:

  • Clarity of goals across individuals and teams
  • Development of performance-based outcomes to drive action
  • The ability to measure progress and make timely adjustments
  • Flexible “building block” skills tailored to the organization’s strengths and accompanying gaps

Key Principals of SAOL™

  • Emphasize outcomes and results…versus quantity and content
  • Focus areas may be straightforward…but the solution is not always a straight path
  • Journey is only complete…once resolution is achieved
  • Integration and strategy…take precedence over sequence
  • Inclusivity and integration is critical…impacted parties MUST be part of the leadership journey

SAOL™ and the CPPO™ Role

We operate as a champion of organizational health supporting company leaders to function as Chief People & Performance Officers (CPPO™).

  1. When you need a champion of your organization’s strategic health, give us a call.
  2. Not a seminar. Not an engagement focused on a specific issue. We operate to support company leaders to function as Chief People & Performance Officers (CPPO™) and drive organizational health and performance.

Programs are tailored to fit your budget and timeline. GrowthMatrix is more affordable, flexible, and effective than hiring a full-time executive.

Some Tools Used in the SAOL™ Methodology

The SAOL™ methodology is not a “one-size fits all” approach. Complex organizational issues require more flexibility and customization to construct an appropriate solution. These are some of the leadership tools that can be drawn upon as we champion organizational health and performance.

Individual Leadership

Tools to focus on leadership development in individual executive, managers, or rising employees.

Team Leadership

Tools to improve team performance, on-boarding new team leaders, and rebuilding trust between teams.

Leadership Presence

Tools to improve the leadership qualities in your executives, managers, or rising employees.

Custom Services

Tools to work with senior executives to map out and grow the management talent pool.

INDIVIDUAL LEADERSHIP

Leadership Coaching: Working One-on-One

When new leaders are coming on-board, they can bring unknown baggage into their role that keeps them from reaching their full potential. Successful on-boarding of a new leader is essential to the new leader’s success. We focus on:

  • Leveraging leadership styles through DiSC and working through differences
  • Determining key communication and motivation needs
  • Examining how the leader can perform, communicate, and operate at peak performance

On-Boarding New Leaders to Their Respective Teams

If you or one of your management team needs leadership development coaching, we can help. We primarily focus on:

  • Achieving highest self in the realm of leadership and behavior
  • Leading and communicating better with peers, direct reports, and executives
  • Aligning passion, talents, and skills to roles, responsibilities, and business goals

Fostering and Developing Productive and Positive Relationships with Peers and Team Members

Poor relationships are usually the result of poor communication and collaboration. If not addressed, these poor working relationships can hinder peak performance due to petty behaviors, avoidance tactics, and negativity. This might not seem like a big deal until projects and teams start bypassing one another, even stopping work completely. We focus on:

  • Defining what “productive and positive” really mean for one another and moving forward
  • Understanding one another’s motivation and leadership style
  • Aligning on firm and measurable action steps that work for both parties

TEAM LEADERSHIP

Building Teams Through Communication and Alignment

Even when teams are clear on their roles and responsibilities, they can underperform their potential due to a lack of communication and alignment. No matter how productive your team might be, there is always room for improvement. We focus on:

  • Mastery of leadership styles and motivations
  • Leader focus
  • Aligning on team improvement areas
  • Action planning

On-Boarding New Leaders to their Respective Teams

When new leaders are coming on-board, they can bring unknown baggage into their role that keeps them from reaching their full potential. Successful on-boarding of a new leader is essential to the new leader’s success. We focus on:

  • Leveraging leadership styles through DiSC and working through differences
  • Determining key communication and motivation needs
  • Examining how the leader can perform, communicate, and operate at peak performance

Re-building Trust and Relationships Among Broken Teams

In extreme cases, teams can be so broken that trust and communication is non-existent. Regardless of the cause and longevity, something can be done about it. The bare minimum requirements are that leadership is invested and that all team members must show up to the table. We focus on:

  • Working through differences
  • Re-building trust and communication
  • Establishing the new norm moving forward

LEADERSHIP PRESENCE

Growing leadership in six critical areas of development:

  • Achieving your highest self: We take a hard look at both your leadership strengths AND your leadership weaknesses.
  • Fostering productive and positive relationships: What really matters in the area of leadership and behavior is that people can notice and feel a positive difference when around and working with you.
  • Leadership presence: It’s about way more than just respect. Learn the five factors that influence your leadership presence and impact how people trust and follow you.
  • Behavioral accountability: The keys in this area are how you go about creating the discipline and the courage it takes to be accountable for your behavior and those who work with you.
  • Creating communication competence: Effective communication relies on five critical areas that lead to competence.
  • Closing the deal on outcomes and deliverables: Ultimately, your organization depends on your ability to perform, deliver results, and do this consistently.

CUSTOM SERVICES

Leadership Program Design and Development

In many growing organizations, there is a need to customize leadership development into an on-going program to develop the next generation of leaders. Rather than just hoping that your management team will improve, we work with senior executives to map out and grow the management talent pool. We focus on:

  • Determining the critical “Must Haves” in leadership for a program
  • Adapting and integrating established principles and approaches as defined by the respective company
  • Determining appropriate success factors and outcomes
  • Designing on point leadership curriculum that address key leadership needs

LET’S WORK TOGETHER

We work as a single united team with clients around the world to help them leverage their best people for the highest efficiency.
