Workplace Application: You will learn seven strategies to ensure the successful assimilation of new senior leaders in your organization.

Forty percent of executives fail in the first 18 months and 75% of that failure is due to poor assimilation! It is a costly problem when leadership failure occurs. This workshop is a strategic, innovative approach that supports your coaching of senior leaders in new and promoted roles to help them to fully contribute faster. We will explore the seven enemies of success and why they put new and promoted leaders at risk for failure. Learn new insights about the strategies to overcome the seven enemies and ensure success as well as apply each strategy to the successful assimilation of newly promoted leaders.
