Get your head around the hard stuff without the hassle
Does the following sound like you?
You've been in your role for a little while. You've done a lot of listening and had good conversations. But now, it's time to make your mark.
You see massive potential to have a significant impact and feel like progress is slower than it needs to be.
You know being decisive is important but there's so much to learn. Sometimes it impacts your confidence.
​
You've built positive relationships with your new team, boss and peers, but find the social dynamics and culture tricky to navigate.
You feel like you hit the ground running but things are more complex than you expected & it's hard to know what to focus on.
You've heard many different opinions but wish there was a way to work out what is really going on.
You're excited about leading your new team and shaping its future, but find yourself getting bogged down by day-to-day operational issues.
Create clarity quickly.
Three common approaches to the
'second 90-days' of a new executive appointment.
The Start-Smart Program provides the insight, clarity and focus you need to make confident decisions, feel in control and have a bigger impact sooner.
