Executive Connections’ experienced management consulting professionals provide organizational consulting, marketing consulting, and strategic planning services to facilitate improving the performance of our client’s businesses. Consulting services include:
Organizational and Operational Audits
Executive Connections is frequently brought in by CEOs to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of an organization in relation to the company’s strategic plan and strategic positioning within their industry sector. These operational reviews are short-term assessment projects designed to create an action plan for change, starting with an assessment of the competency of the senior leadership team in relation to the objectives and challenges facing the business. In addition, these audits sometimes result in identifying unprofitable or “non-core” business activities to be discontinued or spun off.
Strategic Plan Facilitation
Executive Connections is asked frequently by the CEOs we coach to play the role of outside facilitator in leading the company’s strategic planning process. This process is undertaken in order to align the organization’s senior leadership team with a shared vision for the business, strategize positioning, and foster development of individual members’ goals and objectives to be in sync with the business’ vision and objectives.
Personal Brand Development
Executive Connections works with individual senior executives to develop a proactive plan for managing and developing their personal brand in ways that are consistent with helping their organization achieve new leadership breakthroughs. We focus on helping individual executives develop career development plans, and make smarter career choices consistent with a personal vision based upon their personal values.
Board of Directors Search Services
Executive Connections assists leading companies in locating and securing a commitment from outstanding new board members that complement the existing Board of Directors. Executive Connections also researches boards and provides an introduction for CEOs and senior executives who are seeking board positions. In a time when corporate governance and ethics/integrity are being questioned in virtually every industry, strengthening Boards is a compelling initiative for most of our clients.
Salary and Compensation Surveys
Executive Connections has a database of several thousand executives in the industries where we specialize. We are frequently asked by CEOs, and by senior human resource officers, to conduct competitive salary and compensation surveys for various positions. These help ensure the compensation packages being offered to the senior leadership team are on a level that enables the organization to retain its key executives and motivate them to even greater success.
