Workshops for leadership teams

Get your leadership
team pulling in
one direction.

Half a day to two days with your leadership team, built around the decision you need to make: where you’re going, the goals for the quarter, or who owns what. You leave with those decisions made.

Six years at Google. Two at Amazon. CPO of a listed company. 16 startup leadership teams.

Not sure where to start? Start with a first look.

I talk to your leaders one by one, find where decisions and work get stuck, and tell you what I found, in plain words. Then we decide together what to change.

You leave with

What’s slowing you down, in plain words, and the two or three changes to make first.

It’s a short first step, from €5,000.

Start with the one that sounds like you.

How a workshop runs

“

We reached out to Richard to help us finding a way to fit OKRs into our Operating Cadence and how it can work together with the other KPIs or other deliverables that teams and individuals have. He really helped us to find a way of working that works for us and getting the entire senior leadership on the same page.

Before: I talk to your people first

Short conversations with each leader who’ll be in the room, so we start with what’s really going on.

2

The workshop: half a day to two days

In person or online. Your leaders make the calls, and you lead them. I bring in what I’ve seen elsewhere when it helps, and help you decide.

3

After: as much support as you need

A follow-up a few weeks later, to see what’s holding and what isn’t. After that, I support you as much or as little as you need.

A seed-stage SaaS startup of about 30 people reset its strategy in a one-day offsite, broke its dependence on a single platform, and pivoted fast when that platform changed.

What it costs

Each workshop is different, so we talk first. You get a suggested format and a price before anyone commits.

Coaching alongside

Many clients add coaching for the founder or key leaders alongside a workshop, so the change sticks between sessions and they can work through the issues that come up.

Who you'll be working with

I spent six years at Google, then two at Amazon, where I led a 100-person organisation. Since then I’ve worked with 16 startup leadership teams, as a facilitator, trainer and coach.

I run every session myself.

Setting this up for someone?

If one workshop fits, send that workshop’s page: each has its own, with examples. For the whole range, here’s a line you can forward:

Richard runs workshops that get a leadership team agreeing the strategy, the goals or who owns what, and then running it themselves.

If you invest in a founder, or sit on their board, and their leadership team needs to get pulling in one direction, introduce us.

Then a Strategy Session

Free, with the right people. We go through what you need to decide or fix, and by when, and you leave with a plan.
