WHAT WE DO Teri Goodall & Associates, LLC exists to serve you and to work with you to build your organization beyond today's needs and challenges. We equip today's leaders with tomorrow's leadership tools. Teri Goodall & Associates, LLC work in six primary areas: • Executive Mentoring and Succession Planning • Personal, Individualized Coaching and Consulting • Personalized Group Development • Organizational Development • Merger and Acquisition Support • Focus Groups and Surveys SERVICES OFFERED • Executive Mentoring and Succession Planning: Teri Goodall-Komar provides a one-to-one mentoring relationship to improve executive effectiveness within today's changing business environment. Executives gain skills, consider ideas, and receive encouragement to focus on two major goals: solving a variety of business problems and creating positive business opportunities. Since no one formula fits all situations, Executive Mentoring helps busy executives explore and select from a variety of options those best suited to their particular situation or company. Mentoring sessions can be scheduled at convenient times to cause the least disruption to the busy executive's schedule. These sessions can be in your office, in our offices, at a convenient off-site location, or even over the phone. Confidentiality is guaranteed, and all sessions are conducted with the highest integrity and sensitivity. • Personal and Individualized Coaching and Development: Through targeted consulting, we help managers and supervisors who have the courage to pursue leadership to define their changing roles and responsibilities, to clarify their individual leadership style, and to learn effective and efficient leadership techniques as they are challenged to rethink the way they perform. In the process, the individual will learn to create and accomplish professional goals, articulate priorities to achieve their organization's Reason for Being, and learn to focus on becoming a transformational leader. Other skill sets developed during the process include strategic thinking, process analysis, and staff motivation. • Personalized Group Development: One critical impact on the bottom line comes from the relationships inside the organization, i.e., the way we treat employees at all levels. Do your employees talk about conflicts between their departments with customers? Does one area make promises to another area that they can't meet? Does one employee hold up delivery of critical information to another employee because of a personal dispute? We identify the elements and strategies that make or break working relationships. We also discuss how developing better lines of communication and stronger cooperation between internal customers will improve the way we work with each other. In the process we develop teamwork and the knowledge of how to work with different types of personalities. • Organizational Development: Teri Goodall & Associates, LLC are like medical specialists for your organization: we provide an organizational audit, very much like a physical. First, we take the pulse of the health of your company; second, we develop a model for change based on the results of the physical to reach the goals of your strategic plan; third, we identify the employee training needed in order for the organization to succeed; and fourth, we create a strategy to take you there in the healthiest manner possible. This process of attaining honest and constructive employee feedback is critical to a healthy organization to attract and keep valuable employees; to build positive exchanges between all levels and across all functions; and to provide and encourage growth. In addition, we identify trends and predict future organization performance to identify needed changes. We identify opportunities for improvements. Then we create the training and development processes to help you achieve the ideal for your organization. We become your business partner with the utmost integrity and confidentiality. • Focus Groups (Internal & External): Do you know how your employees really feel? Do you know why your Leadership Team can't work together? Can you identify decision-making bottlenecks in different departments? Do you know what people at remote locations need to improve their effectiveness, efficiency and productivity? You can have answers to questions like these determined in an instant by employing Teri Goodall & Associates, LLC to conduct a focus group. Focus group sessions are professional, and guaranteed to provide anonymity to the participants. In fact, if you are planning a critical change to your business direction, a focus group is the best method for attaining significant, honest data without participants having to be concerned with confidentiality. In the case of external focus groups, participants don't even have to know who you are. Focus group sessions can be conducted in person, with computers at a remote location, or even online via the Internet. |
