Our Core Competencies

Executive Consulting provides services which broadly fall into three major categories: 

Organizational Alignment

Because organizations are composed of people in dynamic environments of business and competitive pressures, they must not remain static.  Really healthy organizations pause occasionally to determine if their organizations are in alignment with their strategic business goals.  If they are not in alignment, vital energy – which should be focused on the strategic goals – is being dissipated to accommodate the misalignment.  Sometimes alignment means a series of specific organizational “tweaks” … sometimes radical transformation.  Executive Consulting, Inc. has many years of success in diagnosing the health of the organization and a variety of tools and processes to enable our clients to determine the extent of what is needed and to make the needed adjustments.

Strategic Development

Developing and then executing a business strategy that enables an organization to meet or exceed its goals is the fundamental responsibility of the leadership team of an organization.  Executive Consulting has adopted and adapted the classic, dynamic strategic planning methodologies to today’s progressive, collaborative leadership team model.  ECI has incorporated the discipline of critical thinking and competitive analysis; the “softer” tools of conflict management and effective communications; and innovative ways to test strategies in an unparalleled kit of processes and techniques.

Human Capital Optimization

Workforce problems can undermine a brilliant business strategy.  They can also cause managers and executives to spend time and energy on the problems instead of on the money-making elements of his/her job.  The team at Executive Consulting brings a depth of understanding of these issues that you won’t find in most business consulting firms.  Not only has Executive Consulting repeatedly and successfully addressed workforce issues, all of their processes and methodologies are enhanced with techniques to harness the People Power of an organization to reach the strategic goals … instead of fighting through workforce issues.  The same, high level of critical, strategic thinking that have resulted in the unprecedented success of our clients’ business strategies has been applied to the human resource side of the organization.  The process and techniques that Executive Consulting can provide to client organizations have time after time after time demonstrated what impact People Power can have on the success of an organization.

They were hired to help us develop a strategy statement. They did that and much, much more. Their methodologies involved many exercises that not only helped us achieve our objectives quickly but also slipped in a lot of learning about team-ness and leadership. Effective and easy to work with. We have actually over-shot our ‘stretch’ goals. HR Manager, City Government
