Business Transition

We provide Transition Leadership and services at all levels of an organization: Board of Directors, CEO, Managing Director, COO, HR Leader, as well as other operational and functional roles. 

Business transformation, transition or turnaround can be an evolution or a revolution. It doesn’t matter if it is a course correction or a 180 degree turnaround, the challenge is still the same. It’s about leading change. It could be an acquisition, a divestiture, a need for a new direction or the need for a new company culture. The only solution we have found that leads to success is speed, discipline, and focus and accountability around change. In a word, it is leadership. We lead change by taking organizations from transformation to triumph. This is accomplished by providing high energy on-site, day to day leadership, to help ensure the company's existing leaders embrace new processes and accountabilities and ensure a successful transformation or turnaround. We build high performing teams and provide recruiting, selection or mentoring services for the future (succession planning). We will undertake executive coaching (on a selected basis), as well as programs for cultural and organizational change.

Talent Development

Clear vision, along with honesty and discipline, make for a great leader.

We have often said leaders are people who do what they say they are going to do. That is an exceedingly simple statement, but what it really means is that the leader has a clear vision, can articulate it for people to understand, and the leader can rally people around it. The leader will always be open, honest, and act with integrity. To do what you say you are going to do takes a great deal of discipline. The leader must be strong and adhere to deeply held values. She/he must be willing to be accountable.  What holds true for the leader also holds true for all the talent in your organization. So we impart these lessons to all.

Maple Bay Consulting accomplishes this by employing a number of tools and methods to assess leadership capability and current effectiveness. We then create plans to improve.

Team Building

With the Team to Tactics process, we start with a Team. We can help form a new team or work with an existing team to take them to the next stage of development and to a higher level of performance. There is clear evidence that the most successful organizations tap into the wisdom of teams. In the absence of a Strategic Plan, we help create one. Once there is a Strategic Plan, we can then provide a process for tactical execution. Therefore, we will establish:

Strategic Planning: From Team to Tactics

For help establishing the Strategy and moving the company agenda to the Tactical/Execution stage, the Team can select from a number of playbooks to build their Strategy:

No matter which plays are chosen, you must create a Vision, a Mission, and a Set of Values. You must also understand your strengths and weaknesses inside the organization, as well as your opportunities and threats outside the organization.

Finally, Team to Tactics can be the platform for execution of an existing or developed Strategic Plan through a series of tactical programs or projects, for example:
