Off-site retreats are notorious for providing short-lived ÒhighsÓ that evaporate when participants return to the realities of the workplace.

Principles and practices that seemed so clear and easy to use in the context of the retreat can suddenly become difficult when returning to the demands of 100 m.p.h. action in the trenches. Patterns of thinking and behavior that have been ingrained over decades can creep back in and subvert new found wisdom when there is no support mechanism or structure to enable conscious awareness of choice.

To maintain the breakthroughs of the retreat and to continue to deepen their practice so that they become a natural way of doing business, I have learned that it is highly advisable for me to be available on-site subsequent to the retreat.

On-site Coaching/Problem Solving involves me coming directly in contact with the reality of the work situation faced by individual executives and enables me to reinforce new styles of leading, thinking, communicating and behaving in real time at actual business meetings and problem-solving sessions.

In experiencing my coaching process on-site and observing my meeting facilitation for effective problem-solving, executives and managers absorb first-hand the pragmatics of leadership for creating commitment and achieving results.
