The Clark Leadership Advantage

Your success depends not only on your leadership capabilities, but on your "life" and the personal challenges affecting your career. To be effective, an individual needs to lead and grow both personally and professionally. The Clark Leadership Group approach is to assist and support "The Entire Person", and this differentiates us from others.

Coaching and Peer Group work improves leadership abilities while allowing you to explore and grow within. We leverage your strengths and enhance your accountability to yourself and your organization. Leadership and success are a three-legged stool supported by:

• Knowledge
• Effective leadership
• A balanced life

Without any one of these three legs functioning well, you have imbalance and the potential to falter. We help you close the gap from where your effectiveness is now, to where you want it to be.

Clark Leadership Group also distinguishes itself through the coaches facilitating every peer group event and coaching session. These individuals all have had significant experience in the business world having built, run and sold businesses throughout their careers. In essence, they "have been there and done that!" They have experienced what most business leaders go through and can provide solid, practical support and often the necessary candid and "fierce conversations" to help leaders face their greatest challenges.

Executive Coaching

Executive coaching offers the opportunity for customized sessions catered to your individualized needs.
Consider this:

How would you benefit from repeated interactions with someone listening objectively, pushing when required, supporting and assisting you in growing both personally and professionally?

Why?

• Opportunity for rich, in-depth one-on-one discussions
• Accountability partner

What?

• Regular structured one-on-one discussion with an experienced business person and leader who "has been there, done that"

How?

• Utilizing results from the Taylor Core Values Index Assessment, coaching sessions are customized to each individual. This powerful tool provides a description of the innate, unchanging nature of an individual – which is different from personality and behavioral based assessments. With the individual's core motivational drivers identified, the coaching sessions can build on a solid starting point for one-on-one discussions.

Is it for you?

• Is it helpful to talk about your business with someone who understands?
• Is it helpful to get a second opinion regarding strategy, key decisions, leadership, operations, etc.?
• Is it helpful to have an outlet for frustration and stress?

Confidentiality

At Clark Leadership Group, we place the utmost importance on maintaining strict confidentiality in all interactions. We require all facilitators, coaches and members to adhere to this policy, without question.

Peer Groups

Peer Groups offer interactions and an opportunity for enhanced self-awareness not available in most other settings. Consider this:

How would you benefit from sitting with a group of people who run organizations from which you will receive 100% unfettered answers to your toughest questions?

Why?

• Grow yourself and your business by learning from other individuals facing the same tough decisions, issues and obstacles
• Expand awareness of your business
• Invest time away from your business to more objectively view yourself, your business and the general business landscape

What?

• Permanent group of 12-17 objective individuals from different industries/sectors.
• Forum to share experiences, ideas, issues, solutions and more
• Process issues with other executives solving the toughest business and organizational challenges.
• Safe haven to share the frustrations, pains and joys of being a leader

Is it for you?

• Are you a leader of people, process, idea creation and execution?
• Do you want to grow and become more successful in your business…and life?
• Do you believe in working on your business not just in your business?
• Do you believe in being strategic and not just tactical regarding your business?
• Do you believe others have knowledge and experience to lend?
• Do you enjoy intelligent and thought provoking conversations?
• Do you long for objective conversation about your business?
• Do you have something to offer others and are you open to share?
