Via Advisory Services, we work with the CEO and executive team over several months to transform operating processes. Following an in-depth assessment, we take a hands-on approach; guiding implementation, leading seminars, 1:1 and group meetings, documentation, tools, and more.
Via Executive Coaching, we meet 1:1 each week with a CXO to provide timely solutions and advice. The CXO sets the agenda and we work through whatever issues are most pressing for them, drawing from our experience at Amazon and our (now) advising CXOs.
Any company can build an invention machine like Amazon. It is not a mystical cult but rather a set of principles combined with five scalable repeatable processes. We teach and advise how to implement each component of the machine:
Leadership Principles
with teeth
Organizing
Separable Single
Threaded Teams
New Product Innovation
Working Backwards
PR/FAQ Metrics
Hiring
Bar Raiser
Communicating
Narratives
Metrics
Measuring Inputs
not Outputs
We have both been on journeys that start with a small team and an idea and end with a successful large organization that creates products millions of customers love. It’s an exhilarating journey filled with unexpected challenges. It’s fun and it’s hard! We know what it takes and like to help others embarking on similar journeys.
Bill & Colin (not a team of new MBAs) directly coach, teach and advise leaders on how to successfully implement new processes and stay involved throughout the change management process and beyond.
Our deliverable is not a slide deck with fancy graphics and a slick presentation. We enable your company successfully implement multiple new processes that will change and improve how your company builds products, reviews data, makes decisions, and achieves operating objectives.
If this sounds interesting to you, drop us a note and let’s find a time to connect via Zoom.
