A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
Albert Einstein
Executives can lose their way too, and during those difficult times a little external guidance and wayshowing may be all that is required to set them and their organizations on the right paths again.
Save the executive – save the business. Save the executive – save the worplace. Save the project manager – save the project. Even when we are working on the other side of the equation, that is, rescuing the business or the project, we are always working through the executive or the project manager, respectively.
Our executive rescue program focuses on the issues that are stopping the executive from reaching their goals. Our executive rescue program is an intense version of our CEO and Senior Management Mentoring and Support program.
Our programs have been successful in providing a range of rescue services to CEO’s and senior managers in engineering and non-engineering organizations.
Our executive rescue program is aimed at:
- efficiently overcoming performance issues
- providing advice and feedback on decisions being considered
- creatively exploring solutions to challenges
- re-empowering the executive
- enabling the executive to learn and grow from all situations
- giving the executive confidence in their decisions with an objective and non-threatening review and discussion of their ideas, and the entertainment of alternative thinking
- overcoming personal issues
- facilitating a balanced attitude integrating work, life and spirit
The Premises
Our executive program is based on the following premises:
- Executives cannot solve all problems; there are times they need help too, without undermining their careers.
- Executives need a space where they can freely discuss and explore professional, business and personal issues without consequence.
- It can be lonely at the top, and at times there is no-one to consult to gain an objective perspective.
Initial Briefing
The process starts with a detailed briefing in order to:
- Explain the program, the processes and, most important, the short-term, medium-term and long-term possibilities
- Discuss and co-create the formats of the private sessions
- Discuss the executive's requirements
- Build trust and integrity as they are essential in continuing our work together
Confirmation Briefing
The first session is held a few days after the initial briefing and is a one-to-one session aiming at:
- confirming the executive’s goals and motivations
- refining the objectives for the program and develop a support contract
- detailing any additional information and activities required to assist in meeting the executive’s objectives
There are no costs up to this stage.
The Program — Regular meetings
- Meetings will be held as agreed and as required. The detailed agenda and location to be co-determined.
- Other activities to be organized, as required.
- Other support services and support professionals to be organized, as required.

How does our rescue program differ from our
CEO & Executive Support program?
Timing. Our CEO and Executive Support program is a medium to long-term program focusing on the development of the executive, especially the engineering executive. Our Executive Rescue program is more immediate focused on sustainably overcoming the current issues the executive is facing.
