There are times when a person needs to take a hard look at how they operate, what strengths and weaknesses they possess, whether or not what they set out to achieve remains the focus or whether they have other interests and goals that are at odds with what they have been doing. Sometimes broader life issues necessitate a re-evaluation.
Have you ever marveled at how a long-established professional golfer will go back to the drawing board, seek out a swing coach and change the swing that got them to the highest level of competition? There are many instances in professional sports where “what got you there, won’t keep you there” and it is the same for executives.
We can be that “swing coach.” Sometimes the adjustments are minor while in other instances, changes are more fundamental. In all instances the work begins with a thorough assessment, because establishing an understanding is crucial.
As in sports, so it is in careers that people are interested in statistics. Research is something Lou Clements believes in and he has led the way in Canada as it pertains to executives in transition. Having created and executed research with executives in transition, no one in the country knows more about attitudes, the impact, the reasons why and how people react and what they can expect.
Clements United uses the information to help our clients understand that their reactions and feelings at any point in the journey have probably been experienced by others and the insights derived from the research are used to inform how they approach their transition in order to make it a more engaging and successful experience.
At Clements United, we help our clients to identify what they do exceptionally and what they need to work on in order to stay at the top level, to help them to get there or to find a new stage for their talents. We use evidence-based insights as opposed to wishful thinking!
Your Personal Program
We work with you to build a program that will work to help you realize your potential. We will help you to identify and evaluate what it is you want to accomplish going forward and help prepare you to pursue it. Of course, part of our job is to help you to set goals that make sense based on what we have learned about your interests, abilities, desires and expectations. Your life stage has an impact as well.
We offer high-touch, personalized programs to help individuals answer the important questions, to determine what it is you want to achieve, to evaluate what is realistic, how it can be approached, to feel comfortable with your choices, define how you can go about realizing the goals and support you in your efforts as you move forward.
We do not believe that seminars and webinars are the forums for something as personal as one’s future, so we work one-on-one with you as opposed to grouping you with others who are in similar circumstances.
