Executive Leadership

If I always appear prepared, it is because before entering on an
undertaking, I have meditated for long and have foreseen what
may occur.  It is not genius which reveals to me suddenly and
secretly what I should do in circumstance and unexpected by
others; it is thought and meditation – Napolean Bonaparte

Andover Partners Executive Leadership

Lead Build Prosper Repeat

For over 20 years Andover Partners’ primary business has been helping our Clients globally to grow and build their business by maximizing their measurable bottom-line results.  Our focus is on maximizing profitability, while building for future business growth, supporting sustainability and Professionally Developing our Clients’ most important asset – their people.  These combined efforts also include fixing the Operational and Strategic disconnects which are preventing or inhibiting our Clients from reaching their long-term business goals.

As a result, senior executives (Board Members, C-Suite & Group Heads) and entrepreneurs (Founders, Owners and Key Leaders) alike come to us for custom built, individually focused Engagements based on their most pressing business needs.

Andover Partners Executive Leadership engagements help you to achieve your most pressing (and important) business Goals.  We do not define your business Goals.  You do.  We show your HOW to achieve them and their associated Outcomes so that you can be the most successful possible in your current Leadership Role.

Engagements are custom tailored to your needs (this is NOT a one size fits all platform) and can best be described as highly focused, extremely results oriented and intellectually intense.  You can expect to experience measurable Benefits from day one, complete Confidentiality and you’ll have some fun, too.

Whilst we always prefer to work with our Clients in person because in our experience nothing can replace a face-to-face conversation, we have also developed a virtual video platform that delivers similar robust Benefits at any time and in any location you may require.  Many Clients use a combination of in person & video Sessions, telephonic conversations & e-mail and text support.

Previous Clients have often referred to their particular experience as “Ranger School for the mind” or “Top Gun for Leadership,” which no doubt is a reflection of my past military experience.

Depending on your unique needs, some of the specific measurable Benefits you can expect to receive are:

  • Establishing practical methods that will help you become more Entrepreneurial as a business Leader, which as recent events clearly indicate, is a requirement for the Future State of Business.
  • Helping you to enhance your Leadership Skills Sets so you can manage your different “Silos” more effectively, which is particularly important for business Leaders who have more than one “hat” they wear.
  • Significant improvement in terms of being more efficient at working within your organization.
  • Greatly enhancing of your Core Capabilities and Capacities (the two items are very different) which will result in a greater ability for you to proactively manage change “on your feet in day-to-day operational business.”
  • If applicable, helping you to build the culture you need (what we call “Climate”) within your firm where people can be trusted to “do the right thing” (versus “doing things right”) because your working environment is ethically results based and NOT process measurement based.
  • Minimizing “Dynamic Friction” within your business model (very important).
  • Helping you develop successful and flexible Leadership Plans for yourself and those you lead to achieve your business revenue goals in changing markets regardless of economic conditions.
  • Teach you how to build LTCPs – Long Term Consultative Partnerships – with your your Internal Clients (please note that word choice) which can radically change the Perceptions that the people you lead have of you: this results in MUCH more effective team building and Operational Effectiveness.
  • Pinpoint ways to build Leadership Skills Sets that maximize profits without destroying your External Client relationships for short term gains: this includes building realistic plans to gain the highest share of your marketplace without “giving away the farm” (what we call Profitless Prosperity).
  • Showing you highly effective ways to use Leadership to minimize price as an issue.
  • Boosting your capacity to build and grow your business via increased performance; In many situations, this also delivers a heightened capacity for you to “get the job done” in your current Role, while increasing overall revenues and profits for the firm without increasing the level of daily stress that you experience.
