"I want to let you know how thrilled I am with the work you are doing for one of my important players. I don't know whether this person shared this, but the compliments are coming left and right. I usually have high expectations - but you certainly exceeded them."

--Hannah Kain, Alom Technologies

Top Five Reason Leaders Succeed

In our over 25 years of experience working with the best and brightest of Silicon Valley, we have seen leaders rise and fall, and yet the reasons for success remain the same.

Leaders Succeed When They...

  1. Use Great Feedback Skills (Giving and Receiving)
  2. Build Allies and Advocates
  3. Stay Consistently Focused on Results
  4. Demonstrate Excellent Decision-Making
  5. Develop Their Direct Reports

Our skilled coaches help leaders make improvements in all these areas. Considering how even a small improvement in these areas can produce huge dividends, it's no surprise that 80% our clients receive promotions or increased scope and responsibilities within 6 months of our coaching programs.

Without coaching, even the most well-meaning leader can fall prey to common leadership traps. Whether it's working down, across, or up in a company, there are plenty of mistakes the new or experienced leader can make.

Common Leadership Traps

Down
(Traps with Direct Reports)
Across
(Traps with Peers)
Up
(Traps with Managers)
Poor Delegation
Letting Conflicts Fester
Not Delivering What Manager Wants
Micromanaging
Poor Communications
Neglecting to
Influence Up
Neglecting Development of Direct Reports
Political Jockeying
Failing to Make the Manager Look Good
Setting Unclear Goals and Milestones
Failure to Create Allies
Problem-Naming vs. Problem- Solving
Not Holding People
Accountable
Poor Collaboration Skills
Making "Messes" the Manager Has to Clean Up

Knowing about these leadership traps does not keep someone from falling into them. Often, leaders fall into these traps because of limits in their thinking, "rough edges" in their personality, or simply not knowing how to do things differently.

Our proven approach to coaching keeps leaders on the right track, out of trouble, and producing incredible results by applying cutting edge business principles, feedback and work-style assessment tools, and top-notch coaches trained in management principles, conflict resolution, and interpersonal psychology.

The Cost of Not Investing in Leadership Development

Lost time, money, missed project deadlines and market windows, low morale and recurring replacement costs are only a few of the problems created by refusing to invest and prepare leaders.

GLC addresses these issues with a variety of programs that identify high pay-off results, and deliver them with proven techniques, a variety of expert coaches, quick-and-to-the-point assessment tools, and frequent feedback and communication with stakeholders.

We are one of the few coaching agencies that allows our clients to have access to multiple coaches throughout their program. The Lead Coach will stay involved from beginning to end, while any number of Co-Coaches can be used as needed based on their specific expertise and content knowledge. Clients love the variety and richness of perspective we have to offer.

"GLC is great for individuals that seek fast and effective solutions to solving management problems. I really benefited from seeing problems differently and managing situations as a strong leader."

-- C. Srinivasan, VP of Marketing - Mirapoint
