How many times have you arranged an expensive retreat for your:
Company
Executive Team
Management Team
Project Team
And come away from it with a feeling that there is no return on that investment?
How many strategic plans have you created that worked for the first two months, while everyone followed the work plan you devised, only to see the rest of the plan sit on a shelf for the rest of the year?
ExecuVision International has a unique approach to retreats, facilitation, and coaching that eliminates the waste and the pitfalls of the typical rallying of the troops. As with most great ideas, it is simple, but frequently not easy.
Most retreats start with what we are going to do. We look at the opportunities. We perform a standard SWOT analysis, after much debate and rancor we choose one or two objectives.
In the typical retreat, our next step is to choose how we are going to do it. An action plan is drawn up, often in great detail. We attach names and dates, and believe that, despite several years of evidence to the contrary, this year we will accomplish our goals.
Two months later, we are off track, and have shelved yet another plan for yet another year.
The ExecuVision approach is radically different. We start with the most important question: Why are we doing this in the first place? Why are we uniquely qualified to succeed?

There are two components to running any organization. One is process. This is a matter of design, and we know that eventually all business issues will be solved by process. We also know that every process is designed to deliver precisely the results of that design. If you are not getting the results you expect, process redesign is essential. And we know that people who designed the original process will not be able to adequately rethink a replacement.
The second component is people. The best design is often sabotaged by conflicting demands of manager metrics and performance. Making the transition from manager to executive is overwhelming for many. ExecuVision International specializes in aligning the goals of all parts of the organization through line-of-sight restructuring, as well as executive development.
We have developed a unique managerial model based on Green Beret Leadership (http://iexecuvision.blogspot.com/2010/12/green-beret-leadership_24.html) . Let’s talk about how this model might transform your organization from static to dynamic!
