A structured coaching and facilitation process that strengthens the CEO, upgrades the leadership team, and creates the operating discipline required to scale.
Every company is different, but the core barriers to scale are familiar: unclear priorities, inconsistent accountability, leadership team friction, weak execution rhythms, and too much founder dependence. FreeScale addresses those barriers through a practical, phased process.
We do all the necessary due diligence to learn about your goals and motivations, your company, and the leadership team. We conduct in-depth interviews with the owners and investors of the business. We poll the leadership team with a detailed survey and all employees with a less detailed survey to establish a comprehensive baseline.
An initial Two-Day Workshop will be conducted with you and your leadership team. At this initial workshop we will facilitate discussions with the entire team around strategy, planning, and building a one-page plan for the organization. This becomes the foundation for everything that follows.
We facilitate quarterly two-day learning, review, and planning sessions with your senior leadership team. These sessions include a review of the past period and prioritizing and planning a successful next quarter.
In the months between the quarterly planning meetings, we have biweekly executive coaching calls with the company’s “visionary” (usually the CEO) and the company’s “integrator” (usually the COO or President). The purpose of these sessions is to coach both leaders on the implementation of the program, and act as a sounding board for any other challenges or issues that may arise between quarterly sessions.
Every six months, the entire leadership team will complete an online assessment to establish the current organizational health and monitor the progress made over time. The assessments used include the Organizational Health Checkup Assessment, providing objective data to guide coaching decisions.
Continuous learning is at the heart of everything we do. Leadership teams will commit to quarterly leadership and growth education, spurred by quarterly goals. This commitment to ongoing development ensures that the gains made during the program are sustained and built upon over time.
