CLEAR HARBOR EXECUTIVE ADVISORY ENGAGEMENT
See what is holding the priority back.
A five-week engagement for a CEO and leadership team who have already invested in an initiative and need to understand why it is falling short before deciding what to do next.
DURATION
Five Weeks
LEADERSHIP INPUT
Six to ten interviews
FOLLOW-UP
30-day sponsor review
THE FIVE WEEKS
Start with what people believe.
Leave knowing what needs to change.
-
A 90-minute CEO intake and six to ten interviews establish what people believe is happening, where they agree, and where their views diverge.
-
A targeted review of operating, customer, commercial, and strategic materials shows which explanations hold up and what may be missing.
-
The findings are brought together across functions so leadership can see the issue as a whole rather than as a series of separate symptoms. -
A leadership working session resolves the key choices, names the trade-offs, and assigns ownership for the next 90 days.
-
A sponsor follow-up 30 days later reviews what has changed, where friction remains, and whether the direction needs to be adjusted.
LEADERSHIP LEAVES WITH
What the team can do next.
A clear account of what is causing the issue.
The decisions and trade-offs required to address it.
A 90-day direction with owners and measures.
An executive brief that captures the findings and agreed direction.
This engagement is useful when:
The business has already invested time, capital, or leadership attention.
Several explanations make sense, but none fully explains the result.
The issue crosses functions and cannot be resolved inside one team.
The next move will be expensive, disruptive, or difficult to reverse.
The CEO wants someone to look across the business, not evaluate one team.
