Challenge
A CEO of a retail firm was tasked with leading a company turnaround after consecutive years of declining performance. The board demanded swift action, and the CEO was under pressure to revamp the company’s vision and leadership approach. However, the CEO felt stuck, overwhelmed by legacy systems and resistant leadership teams.
Approach
We began by assessing the CEO’s current leadership practices and how they communicated their vision to the broader team. Through in-depth strategy sessions, we refined their vision for the company and developed communication plans to secure buy-in from the leadership team.
Solution
We worked on a three-phase plan: first, restructuring the leadership team to include forward-thinking executives; second, establishing a clear company-wide vision; and third, implementing communication strategies to rally employees around this vision. Leadership development for key stakeholders was also essential in ensuring sustained transformation.
Experience
Within a year, the CEO led the company through a successful rebranding and operational overhaul. Employee engagement improved, new leadership brought innovation, and the company returned to profitability. The CEO credited the coaching process for providing the clarity and support needed to push through challenging periods.
