Agency owners struggle because they have high potential employees but aren’t quite sure how to give them the leadership skills they need to step into bigger roles. Which means the owner is stuck carrying too much of the load and the agency can’t scale because the owner becomes the bottleneck.
Greg’s Chief Maker Academy arms up and comers and young leaders with the skills, understanding and frameworks they need to step up and become a part of the agency’s long-term future.
Your key leaders will learn to think like an owner, take full accountability for their work, treat their boss as their #1 customer and stay laser focused on the most important priorities. Meaning you can get back to leading the company into the future.
We'll coach your leaders in how to create alignment and work towards common goals. They'll learn to seek understanding, treat stakeholders like customers and respectfully break down people barriers.
Great chiefs never accept the status quo and we'll teach your leaders to do exactly that.
They'll learn how to inspire their people and lead change that gets measurable results aligned to the company strategy.
Your business operates in a highly competitive market and must keep evolving to win.
To be successful you know you need to spend more time on growth and strategy. But you just keep being drawn into customer, operational and people issues...
You're not alone. The truth is, most digital professionals are promoted into leadership roles without the necessary tools and frameworks to build personal excellence and lead high performing teams.
Without this critical development they end up spending their time running from meeting to meeting, sending emails, playing politics and working on low value projects.
This is costing you critical time and energy that should be focused on the most important strategic initiatives in your business.
So...
We'll teach your key people The GREAT Method. In less than 12 months, you’ll have reliable leaders who coach employees, align the business to strategy, give and receive feedback, develop talent and implement innovative ideas.
Craig Murphy,
Chief HR Officer, Henley Homes
"I coach and mentor many emerging leaders who have impressive technical backgrounds. Generally their leadership development has not been particularly structured and certainly nothing that has the ‘stickiness’ of The GREAT Method. Greg’s GREAT Method is as honest as it is practical. Have a plan, build effective habits, build a network, enhance your value proposition and build a strong history of performance."
Hetty Johnston, OAM,
CEO and Executive Chair, Bravehearts
"A role like mine is, many times, exhausting, conflicting, confusing and huge. Greg helps me cut through the maze, to see more clearly in the middle of so many issues, what is important and where my focus must lay. He is an integral part of helping Bravehearts make Australia the safest place in the world to raise a child. I cannot speak too highly of his capacity to cut through the forest of issues and find the tree of hope."
Graham Crew,
COO, Golden Star Resources, London
"For me personally, the time and clarity created through these processes helped me to guide and coach the team and to work more effectively at the right level, improving effectiveness and accountability in the leadership team."
The most powerful method ever conceived for getting leaders fully engaged, accountable and inspired to go the extra mile.
The GREAT Method is a 5 step blueprint which turns technical professionals into committed and skilled people leaders who get results.
Develop a life and career plan that brings your best self to work everyday. And become a leader of rare value as you learn to see yourself as a professional services firm of one and your boss as your #1 customer.
Implement high performance habits and routines which drive focus, continuous improvement and balance so you have more time to work on the most important priorities and develop your people.
Build trusted relationships with stakeholders, peers and team members to make change happen faster and with less stress.
Dial up your skills, education and experience to improve your results, boost your confidence and increase your ability to influence.
Lead a high performance team and build a bullet-proof track record of results that helps the company achieve its vision and strategy
