case study

Engaged as the design architect for a large professional services  organization, Neil created an innovative and multi-dimensional leadership development experience to  intentionally invest in the growth of future partners. This program is a 3 year journey, comprising off-site development, leadership projects, assessments and coaching. Structured around the firm’s strategic drivers and values, the program focuses on the critical dimensions of importance to the firm’s present and future leaders. Led by business leaders, with a blend of internal and external expertise, this program has been lauded as a critical element in the future success of the company. Neil designed the program elements, collaborating with a small team, and led the design execution of the program. Blending appropriate  assessments to provide personal insight, challenging participants to deliver key organizational challenges, and stimulating development through subject matter experts with critical engagement, have all been key components to this program.  This is a flagship program which is at the forefront of professional services development.
