Leadership Development:
Building a company culture of accountability, communication and teamwork depends on a team's ability to match its actions and priorities to the created vision. Dorrier Underwood pairs individual and team coaching with seminars and other large group programs to develop mid- and high-level leaders. The rigor and authenticity that permeate our work result in personal fulfillment, professional growth, and remarkable bottom-line results.
Retreats, Keynote Speeches, and Large Group Programs
Dorrier Underwood consultants take teams beyond business as usual to allow them to discover new ways to relate to each other and their organization. Our work generates the momentum required to affect productivity and performance long after the event itself.
The Mastery Program
In a three-day intensive, executives in a small-group setting develop their leadership to be a match for the challenges of this century. They can expect a breakthrough in seeing new, inspiring possibilities for the organization, in being empowered to make necessary changes to produce results, and in expanding a personal sense of well-being.
Executive Consulting
Using the model of great athletic coaches, Dorrier Underwood works with clients one-on-one to uncover ways of thinking and acting that have gone unnoticed and prevent people from accomplishing the results they aspire to. Executive consulting provides new tools and capabilities with which executives can manage their own performance and inspire greater performance in their teams.
VISION AND VALUES
Our Expertise -- Organizational Consulting and Executive Development
Our Purpose – Work is Fulfilling and Organizations Empower People
Our consulting team exemplifies a culture of Authenticity, Accountability, Compassion, and Transformation. We partner with executives to establish their vision, determine a clear path forward, and powerfully engage their employees and stakeholders to fulfill on that vision.
Dorrier Underwood is strong at enhancing the people side of business (self-awareness and high performance) and at developing leadership at all levels of an organization. We are able to go deep inside of organizations and create a viable culture that fulfills and sustains the vision.
Our two ambitious goals for organizational transformation are:
1) All organizations recognize that there is a whole human being at work and there is no separation between work and the well-being of their employees. Consequently, organizations become opportunities for work to contribute to the fulfillment, creative self-expression and well-being of their employees, which in turn contributes to the organization, its clients, and the world.
2) Every organization is authentically at work on a Big Goal that enhances and makes a lasting difference in the quality of life.
