The Quadrant Institute

I work with senior executives who are experiencing persistent patterns that block higher development. I offer significant improvement through increased executive and team focus, alignment and commitment.

You can expect expanded awareness, greater personal responsibility and communication abilities, plus high-impact financial benefits from my Workshops, Retreats, Multi-year curriculums and Leadership Forums.

Participants in these programs learn powerful core principles and processes designed to close the gap between where they are and where they want to be in terms of leadership effectiveness and life satisfaction. During sessions, participants enjoy high-velocity, experiential learning. We focus on key areas such as communication, relationships, leadership style and presence – as well as personal self-mastery concepts, models and tools.

Business schools and corporate training programs often neglect a comprehensive study of internal concepts essential to leadership effectiveness. Some examples of these skills include those important to developing relationships with “difficult people” (aka “your opposite”), and bringing hidden conflicts to the surface to affect complete resolution. These skills build trust and expand your communication abilities, so that others can hear you and you can hear them.

Quadrant Institute’s Developing the Authentic Leader Program is the foundation of all other teachings.

This is a two-year program introducing participants to a broad range of methods and principles, in a peer-group setting ideal for in-depth exploration of business, career, relationship and personal topics.

Attendees receive the benefit of training, my guidance and facilitation and the input and feedback from peers. Participants meet monthly, work on assignments between meetings and attend two intensive three-day training sessions.

At various times during the year, together with knowledgeable, enthusiastic partners and staff, I lead two-day trainings held at a recently-built, retreat center near Buena Vista, Colorado. This magnificent facility sits at the base of Mount Harvard, surrounded by the San Isabel National Forest.

Currently, we offer two core trainings: Leading with Authentic Power and Creative Connections: Building Relationships at Work and Home.

Surrounded by the beauty of nature, these workshops provide catalyst experiences that help you shatter limiting internal models and belief systems and replace them with strategies designed to enhance your influence and effectiveness.

I also use the Institute to offer custom-designed trainings from half-day workshops to a full year curriculum to develop high-performing leaders and teams.

I work with associates to develop programs based on the dynamics and needs of participant individuals, teams and organizations. All clients receive efficient, high-velocity and sustainable development using proven Quadrant Way models and processes.
