LEADING GAME-CHANGING INITIATIVES
(for leaders of change, strategists and intrapreneurs)
Who is it for?
Leaders with big aspirations who want to leverage on game-changing initiatives that will provide the business or departments they lead with a competitive edge.
How are you holding yourself back?
For many leaders, the frustration stems from the growing need to do more with less, and being increasingly overwhelmed and distracted by ‘busy work’ instead of strategically working on what matters most in their organisation.
What will you achieve?
Develop, mobilise resources and execute major new strategies.
Create the freedom, support and commitment to focus relentlessly on driving your ideas forward and bring a new order of things in the business you lead - with new cultures, business models, products and/or strategies.
What will we work on?
The programme will be tailored to your specific needs and requirements. Here’re some areas we can focus on.
Alter the Status-Quo
Share and explore your aspirations, ideas and opportunities for growth. Create a vision that provides your business with a competitive edge.
Game-winning plan
Create a source document with your strategic intent, milestones, implementation plan and methodology. Plan weekly, monthly and quarterly to move forward with your vision.
Identity and leadership strategy
Leadership feedback or assessment to identify new ways of being and behaving required to fulfil your vision. Practice them and integrate them.
Influence the change
Capture people’s hearts and minds with new solutions and fresh approaches. Master the political chessboard and build on quick-wins to create possibilities for a larger breakthrough.
A-Team
Build a team with A players: review your talent, engage people in playing the big game and break through their individual resistances to change. Become a coach and a mentor.
Energy & executive time management
Audit and manage your time, energy and attention. Think about your job differently to focus both on the short-term and profit objectives, AND creating a new vision.
Critical decisions
Make judgement calls with a strong moral compass on people decisions, strategy calls and crisis decisions. Recognise, mobilise, execute and adjust.
Scoreboard
Focus on tangible transformation, numbers and results. Build a scoreboard with metrics to evaluate your progress and sustain your growth.
How do we achieve this?

I create a report to monitor your progress and identify areas of development and opportunity to progress with your objectives.

Case Study
Cristina was craving to land in a strategic position that would elevate the commercial potential of her company.
With coaching, she embraced her entrepreneurial inquisitiveness, developed a strategy and approached the management and CEO with her business idea.
She is now the Head of Commercial Consulting, leading the division across the whole Asia Pacific and a new core team of 35+ people.
“Susana has been a critical player in helping me craft and thrive in an entirely new role that encompasses all the career criteria and growth opportunities that I’d wanted to pursue for a long time. She was unapologetic to make me own the value that I add to my company and clients and the importance of my ideas and my vision. Susana is a source of inspiration. She is competent, approachable and gets you where you want.”

Case Study
Facing the decision of which contract to accept next, Rob - previously an independent consultant - decided to develop his own business. He adopted new behaviours to create and execute yearly, quarterly and monthly strategies; craft his product offering, and define and reach his target customers.
He has expanded his client base overseas and had become the key UK ambassador for the US leading software company in his industry.
“It’s hard graft when you start a new business. The journey can be lonely, and Susana is there for you – as someone who brings fresh thinking and perspectives and challenges you to do more. She has helped me rise above the day to day noise to reach the 10,000ft level and made me think in a different way. Susana provides ideas that I haven’t the headspace to look for, and she has helped me in focusing on the key messages that my audience wants to hear. I’ve transformed the way I approach conversations with customers, prepare for meetings and organise monthly and quarterly plans to focus on my targets.”
