THE TOP GEAR PROGRAM®
We believe that alignment is the ultimate competitive advantage.
But getting everyone and everything aligned can be a real challenge.
To help our clients accelerate their "One Company" transformation, we developed The Top Gear Program, a unique blend of strategy consulting, organizational transformation, and executive coaching that we call “Strategy Coaching.”
Each engagement is totally customized to match the requirements and budget of each client. In some cases, we have operated as a full-time “Chief Alignment Officer” and a full member of the executive team. In other cases, we have simply provided coaching and consulting on an “as needed” basis.
The Top Gear Program is based on the Drive One Direction® methodology. This is our playbook, and it has taken over One Decade to develop it.
Companies have leveraged The Top Gear Program to align and transform their organizations. Our best clients have grown tenfold. One has quadrupled in size. Several have doubled. Two have won multiple Best Place to Work awards. One is in the Inc. 5000 Hall of Fame.
