Leadership Development

“At Advised By, we train courageous leaders
and individuals for bold professional lives.”

We believe that leadership is fundamentally about people, not just strategy.

We believe that leading others is a serious and important commitment which requires self-awareness and an understanding of one’s own reactions.

This in addition to understanding human reactions and motivation.

We recognize relational competence as a key competence for future employees—and especially leaders.

We’ve perfected how to take insights and knowledge and turn them into real behavior, vocabulary, and practices in daily life.

That is our goal in every program, whether working with individuals or teams.

Deep work and identifying patterns

We want to go deeper and to the core of every leader we work with, both in leadership teams and through individual development.

We identify patterns and the associated reactions, allowing for intentional behavioral changes, which are noticeable in every interaction.

Practice over theory

We believe in practice over theory; therefore, we provide a relational and emotional vocabulary to support bold professional leaders.

All leadership programs are customized to the individual, leadership teams, and departments.

Below, you can read about some of the most used elements in Advised by’s work with leaders:

Programs

Executive Coaching:

Supporting the leader’s specific goals and offering Advisory support on relational leadership challenges along with training in self-reflection skills based on relational leadership.

Executive coaching program based on the Hogan Assessment:

Focusing on strengths, derailers, and values, with follow-up sessions to ensure optimal personal development.

Hogan differs from other assessments on the market in one particular way; it offers feedback on reputation rather than identity and is regarded as the personality assessment on the market that provides the deepest psychological insights.

Facilitation of Leadership Groups

Goal: Establish a shared direction, a strong foundation, and a common language within the organization.

Either a combination of individual executive coaching and facilitated sessions for the entire team or solely facilitated group sessions conducted over a minimum of 3-4 meetings to ensure continuity and promote genuine behavioral change.

It may also be beneficial to offer the leadership team a facilitated process if there are challenges related to collaboration, communication, and conflict.

This program will focus on creating a safe space for disagreement, equipping each leader to communicate in a personal language, and enabling them to repair relationships—often referred to as “cleaning up backwards.”

A team that communicates with one another rather than about one another, can resolve their relational challenges independently and does not take things personally. This leaves focus to create better and more sustainable results.

Workshops

Goal: Our interactive and engaging workshops focus on relational competence and psychological safety.

Introductory workshops – half or full day:
Designed to strengthen team relationships and foster psychological safety.

Through facilitated exercises, participants will gain a better understanding of their own and their colleagues’ patterns and preferences— in an inspiring and safe manner.

The approach encourages reflection without delving too deeply, allowing for thought-provoking insights.
