“This has been the most productive meeting we have ever held. Growth River has allowed us to move through issues and obstacles that we could never have done on our own. As a result we have accomplished more in two days than we have gotten through in the last two years...”

—Marty Rosenberg, Co-Founder, Ethos Partners Healthcare

 

This is an actionable, focused and results-driven offering. There are three parts:
1. Learn

In the executive leadership breakfast seminar, you will learn powerful conceptual tools – both models and distinctions – for guiding your team towards higher performance.

2. Collect Team Data

Following the seminar, team survey data will be collected easily and efficiently to assess your team and provide insights.

3. Analysis

A Growth River consultant will conduct a follow-up session to interpret results, apply necessary distinctions, and identify next steps toward strategic team alignment.

 

An Operating System for Leaders and Teams

“Since learning the Growth River approach, we’ve improved the crispness of our decision making. Now we run into the storm, rather than try and steer away from it.”

—Randy Jordan, CEO, HOPE worldwide

The approach we will share with you is based on our two decades of work with hundreds of leadership teams, from Fortune 50 to tech startups to not-for-profits, large and small.

We’ve distilled this wide-ranging experience into the Growth River Leadership OS, a comprehensive system of distinctions, tools and protocols for guiding business evolution.

This brief introduction to the Leadership OS and resulting analysis of your team's performance will significantly impact the way you think about your strategic priorities.

Topics to be covered

 

1. The Path to Team Effectiveness

This is a nuanced yet simple set of distinctions which concretely link strategic culture and sustainable business models. Data, collected from your team and applied to this model, pinpoints the primary constraint to business growth, and thus your next investment with the highest return.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. The Business Triangle

 

The business triangle is a way to visualize a business as a go-to-market system. Acceleration around the triangle equals business growth. The customer’s overall experience is a result of interactions with all three sides of this triangle.

A business is a set of key capabilities designed to develop, sell and deliver products and services to customers with the help of partners in a way that optimizes competitive advantage.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Team Assessment Tool

A question set, derived from the root questions below, provide data that when properly interpreted can clarify roles, establish critical accountabilities, and set strategic course. More importantly, the data and analysis aligns the team, so insights lead to execution and breakthroughs in performance.
