FORGE™ for Leadership Teams

You’re a busy senior leader or investor. You already know leadership strength and culture directly affect business performance.


FORGE™ for Leadership Teams strengthens how leaders connect, communicate, make decisions, and operate together.


This work is not only for organizations in distress. It’s for capable teams that want to reduce execution risk, prevent avoidable leadership burnout and turnover, and build leadership depth as the business grows.

Where FORGE™ Applies

 As organizations grow or change:

  • Teams integrate, consolidate, or members change, creating challenges with alignment, communication, relationships and political navigation.
  • Roles evolve faster than leaders are prepared.
  • High-potential talent is promoted before they’re fully ready.
  • Bench depth is thin and one leadership transition away from severe operational disruptions.
     

FORGE™ addresses these conditions and more, systematically, and in a results-based, data-driven approach.

“Talent readiness, or lack thereof, can be a business risk long before it shows up in results."

FORGE™ Coaching Delivers

Turning Individual Growth into Team Performance

Stronger leaders create stronger teams. Even highly experienced executives hit moments when the role gets bigger, stakes increase, pace accelerates, complexity increases.
 

At these inflection points, coaching provides a confidential space to challenge & develop leadership processing skills, decision making, and self-reflection.


Individual coaching isn’t just a personal benefit — it’s a force multiplier for the entire leadership team.

Communication & Working-Style Alignment

We use behavioral and communication frameworks to help leaders understand how they communicate and make decisions, how others receive information and process change, where friction naturally occurs, and how to adapt their style to build trust and effectiveness.


This creates a shared language that improves:

  • Executive communication
  • Cross-functional collaboration
  • Decision speed and meeting effectiveness

Creating a Leadership Operating Culture

FORGE helps leadership teams intentionally build the culture required to succeed and scale.  We work with leaders to align on:

  • Expectations and accountability norms
  • How decisions are made and communicated
  • How feedback is given and received
  • How leaders model behavior for the organization
  • How the team shows up during change, pressure, and growth

How FORGE™ Coaching Works

1-on-1 Coaching & Working Sessions

Confidential, role-focused coaching tied directly to real business challenges. Sessions are structured with emphasis on how leaders show up and perform in their current role.  Focus areas typically include transitions into new or expanded roles, decision-making and prioritization, executive communication and influence, performance accountability, and navigating growth, change, and complexity.
 

Team Coaching & Working Sessions

Leadership performance is a team sport. Team coaching turns individual development into coordinated execution. We facilitate structured working sessions to improve alignment on priorities, cross-functional execution, decision speed, accountability, communication, and operating cadence.
 

Leadership Assessments & Diagnostics

Best-in-class tools are used to bring clarity and accelerate performance at both the individual and team level. The objective is focused insight tied to real business priorities.  Common tools include Lominger Competencies, DiSC® Communication Styles, 360° Feedback, Individual Development Plans (IDPs), Accountability Charts (EOS), and cross-functional stretch assignments.  FORGE™ applies the right tools at the right time — based on context, stakes, and development needs..

Real-World Application & Support

Leadership development happens in the work, not outside of it. Coaching is reinforced through real decisions, real challenges, and real accountability.  Leaders receive ongoing support between sessions, guidance on active issues, accountability to development goals, and integration with company priorities and strategy.
