CLIENT CHALLENGES:

Transforming leaders to keep up with major organizational transformation

Ron Wilson, Chief Operating Officer, reached out to transform leaders to keep up with major organizational restructuring.

  • Overburdened leaders were facing burnout and overwhelm from all the changes. 

  • Fragmented teams unsure of how to come together and perform at a higher level, collectively. 

  • New roles, systems and processes have created blindspots leading to under-performance.


OUR APPROACH:

Transforming leaders and aligning culture

Our entire program design was focused on shifting leadership change from externally motivated to internally. Instead of running away from challenges of new systems, processes and responsibilities - it became an opportunity to transform themselves for growth. 

Hosting an event with key leaders across their entire division became an inflection point of positive change. We were able to unify team aspirations, strengthen their resolve and challenge them to think differently with associated actions.

We created a process for each and every team member to develop at least one project which they committed to taking on differently designed to enhance their leadership skills and overall impact.

And recognizing organizational change would progress continuously, we embedded fundamentals, enhanced skills and tools to support sustainable, incremental changes as a foundation for ongoing leadership transformation.

Game changer!

For anyone navigating transformation or seeking to strengthen team alignment and culture, Sterling is the go to expert. Ron Wilson, Chief Supply Chain Officer, Fortune Brands Innovations
