Why We're Different

Thrive! Success Stories

Working with Thrive!

Thrive! clients—CEOs, presidents, senior managers, and even sport coaches — are passionate about achieving results. They realize to do this requires a cohesive team aligned around a common purpose and direction. Thrive! helps its client leverage the power of people working effectively together to create extraordinary results.

When we work with clients we are usually focused in the following areas:

Creating High Performing Teams

We customize our consulting approach to fit the needs of each individual client and design our approach to not only aid teams that may be struggling but also help functioning teams achieve even better results.

We work with CEOs and leaders who are determined to make their executive and leadership teams cohesive and their organizations more effective. Unlike many organizational consulting firms, we strive to integrate discussions of team effectiveness with core business issues, helping companies avoid politics and confusion, make higher quality decisions and retain top employees.

Our work with CEOs and their executive teams usually begins with a one or two-day offsite, where we identify and address potential team dysfunction and internal confusion about priorities by applying methodologies found in The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive and Death By Meetings. We also work with the team to develop skills for having Crucial Conversations to reduce team and organizational politics. Following our initial work with teams, we also provide clients with follow-up tools and customized guidelines to ensure that progress continues.

Developing Leaders

We believe each of our clients has the ability to be a leader. We coach our clients to identify their personal and professional vision, get a clear understanding of where they are currently, and help them align what they are doing with where they want to go. At Thrive! we create an inviting, respectful environment where you can trust and feel comfortable expressing yourself.

Helping Organizations Communicate

Often a key leader in an organization recognizes a problem with the communication in the corporate culture or a skill deficiency and contacts us.

• Straight Talk: Handling Crucial Conversations - is a one or two day offsite to develop skills for having those crucial conversations. This can be done with an intact team or general training offered to the organization.
