Planning Approach:

0. dummie toggle

We meet with your key executives and knowledge leaders and communicate the value of management continuity in a non-threatening way. Nobody is getting displaced. It just makes good business sense to plan for the future and develop up-and-coming leaders.

1. Orientation

We meet with your key executives and knowledge leaders and communicate the value of management continuity in a non-threatening way. Nobody is getting displaced. It just makes good business sense to plan for the future and develop up-and-coming leaders.

2. Institutional Knowledge Catalog

For each of your key positions, Emergent Execs creates a highly detailed profile of that individual’s daily activities, competencies, motivational abilities, industry knowledge, technical expertise, and key relationships.

3. Talent Pool Identification

With the assistance of Human Resources and the executives, Emergent Execs generates a talent pool of succession candidates that potentially match to the executive profiles. Through interviews and psychometric testing, we identify the strengths and gaps of each successor.

4. Successor Development Plan

Emergent Execs customizes a series of critical development experiences for each of the executive positions. These experiences may cover management expertise, industry comprehension, role-specific knowledge, key relationship introductions, and executive polish.
Development plans typically range from 6-12 months.

5. Succession Monitoring

We train your executives to coach their potential successors through the development plans, monitor the process, and provide progress updates to your HR professional.

“Emergent Execs are an important partner to us. Their Manager Catalyst offering is an excellent program that we’ve been able to implement globally. Ted  & Monica are knowledgeable, flexible, and very responsive.”

– Bailey G, Texas Facilities Commisison

– Eddie V,    WellnessFi 

“We led an extensive process to identify the right coaching organization for our fast growth organization. Emergent Execs proved to be the right choice – they had a proven curriculum but were willing to customize and adapt the classroom conversation to address specific challenges we were facing at that point in time. Additionally their expertise in facilitating conversations with all levels made an impact on the business itself and how talent worked together to meet organizational goals and objectives.”

– Lauren P,  CLS Partners

“The best part of the classroom experience is being together with other leaders who share similar challenges. I’ve made great friends and business connections, and I feel that I have an
added support system.”

– Michelle S,  RetailMeNot

 “I loved the classroom experience and getting the opportunity to hear from other leaders in the tech space. Meeting with my coach helped me bring the learnings from the classroom back to work and apply them to my role.”

 “The coaching relationship took the classroom teaching and pressed it into my daily habits. My coach was relentless, yet kind in her approach, helping me squeeze out the bad to make room for a more thoughtful approach toward teamwork and accountability.”

– Kevin L,TengoInternet

 “Over the course of my coaching engagement, I’ve grown in step-functions, making big improvements in short periods of time across a number of areas: professional confidence/presence, leadership/general management, communication, prioritization, etc.”

– Nicole T, Spiceworks

 “EE classes validated that I am more than capable of taking bold next steps in my career.  The organizational and personnel challenges causing major frustration were real — and there
were actions I could take to overcome them.”

– Mark P, Velocity Electronics
