LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Leadership is a complex challenge for both firms and individuals, encompassing elements as diverse as a commitment to responsible design practices and deep inquiries into self-knowledge. The influence of good leadership practices and skills, or the consequences of bad leadership, affect the firm's success, the careers of everyone on staff, and the firm's business eco-system: its clients, community and surrounding environment.

At AMI we approach leadership issues with sensitivity, compassion, and an understanding developed over 15 years of intimate work with leaders and firms. Our proficiency ranges from providing introductory leadership programs for young professionals, to helping CEO's choose their post-retirement life paths.

We collaborate with firms to:

• Achieve support for current firm leaders;
• Facilitate consensus among the leadership group;
• Troubleshoot difficult leadership questions;
• Identify and develop the firm's future leaders;
• Create and facilitate exit strategies for current leaders;
• Foster successful and positive leadership transitions.

At the skill building and leadership development level, we can:

• Create introductory, mid-career and senior level leadership development programs;
• Expand the skill set of current leaders through executive coaching;
• Facilitate senior leaders' choices about transition and future career paths;
• Provide peer support and connection for leaders at all levels.

AMI can help you resolve any leadership challenge.
