“Leaders and managers are going to fall in love with Louis Carter’s coaching… Louis gives you a simple process to become a better and more effective leader through his own methods of co-creating and achieving real tangible goals.”

To effectively make change, you’ll have to dig deep into the advice and perceptions of others and for yourself. This requires that you first take a deeper dive into your perceptions of your own leadership. Once you form solid self-awareness, it’s time to take a look at what others perceive about your leadership. Now you are in a position of strength to make decisions on what you want and do not want to change.

Your direct reports, bosses (or Board if you are CEO), and a group of stakeholders who support your development, will determine the exact practices and actions that will make you even more successful to reach your goals. Through a process of advice gathering, you will be able to track you Leadership Effectiveness over time. And, perhaps most importantly, you will always know where you stand, and the best next steps to take.
