Executive Advising

The later stages of an executive’s career often require specific retention and development actions to benefit both the individual and the company. A valued executive who has long served in one role may need to move to a new role, or tweak aspects of how they lead, or be positioned for additional leadership or board roles outside the company—all in advance of a transition that may not occur for years to follow. HR leaders often seek help from a seasoned Executive Advisor to provide thoughtful, carefully constructed coaching/advising to ensure a positive outcome is reached with their senior-most people.

Examples Include:

  • Positioning an executive for a community leadership or for-profit board while continuing in their current role
  • Moving a Division Operating Head to a Group Executive role, such as Vice Chair
  • Ensuring and supporting an executive’s mentoring and successful transitioning of responsibilities to his or her successor
  • Helping an executive reengage with new leadership skills to manage their people while leaving some unhelpful managerial patterns behind

  • “Change, ultimately, is a matter of learning and adapting. And it often requires a mindset shift. But you may be more prepared than you realize. Think of all those finely honed capabilities you’ve developed: your ability to influence, to make tough calls based on instinct and judgment, to rally a team around a vision, to move an organization, to spot talent and help others rise higher. Dr. Leslie Braksick and her team have been a tremendous help to many of my colleagues and to me.”
