Entrepreneurial Leadership

From start-ups to established businesses, Francine works with entrepreneurial leaders to help them develop the best practices that contribute to ongoing success:

  • Partnership Dialogue & Communication - Breaking Through The Silent Barriers That Block Mutual Understanding
    Entrepreneurial partnerships begin with the best of intentions. The business venture is successful - the result of hard work and dedication on the part of all partners. Along this successful road some issues and concerns have become ignored. Lack of time, energy or interest in addressing these sensitive and often difficult issues can often result in an undercurrent of tension. This environment threatens to undermine the partnership and the business. Through private fact finding interviews and facilitated dialogue critical issues are carefully defused and resolved.
  • The Leadership Lab - Leadership Development & Assessment
    The Leadership Learning Lab creates a confidential environment designed to promote learning, enhance self-awareness and inspire shared vision. It is a program customized to align with an organization's leadership requirements and an individual's specific development needs. Included in this program is the option to participate in a 360° Executive Feedback Process and create individual leadership learning plans.
  • Team Learning Lab - Building Teams That Last
    Through the creation of a safe and respectful environment participants are encouraged to address team issues related to authentic communication, roles, responsibilities, decision-making and commitment. The security of the 'Lab' makes it possible for participants to focus on uncovering the silent barriers that prevent outstanding team performance and facilitates the development of skills in active listening, dialogue, consensus decision-making and constructive feedback.
  • Corporate Governance - Creating A Structure To Ensure Business Continuity
    Creating a structure that provides for on-going dialogue and decision-making that will protect and and strengthen the shared interests of the partners is essential for long term entrepreneurial success. Through a collaborative process partners will work together to develop a corporate governance structure that can promote harmonious partnership relations, protect the long term strategic agenda of the business and perpetuate the spirit of ownership in the business.
  • Executive Coaching - Guidance for: Self-Knowledge • Self-Management • Self-Development
    Coaching is a potent tool for inducing positive change and for designing strategies to create success. As your coach I will serve as a sounding board, personal advocate, and guide, helping you to reach your goals. Through structured dialogue and assignments, we think through challenges and opportunities from multiple perspectives, and, through intelligent and provocative questions, challenge the status quo and implement meaningful changes.
Some Issues That Impact Entrepreneurial Leaders:

"This is a great venture, we don't want to screw it up."

"To be successful, we need to work as a team. What's preventing us from coming together?"

"I'm not sure we're on the same page about where we want this company to go."
