High Performance Leadership Training that Works

“Thank you for a unique and great High Performance Leadership Training. The facilitator was brilliant. It will help us to create even higher performance now that we all know what matters most.

It really opened our eyes about a different way to lead.”
Simon Jefferson | Managing Director | AKQA

“The High Performance Leadership Training Sessions combined with the strategy and executive coaching work helped us to grow 48%, increase profits by 10% and close more than 50% of our deals over the last 12 months.

Aligning our strategy, culture and talent is making all the difference. Thank you LSA!”
Laurie Sewell | President & CEO | Servicon Systems

Unlike most leadership development programs that focus on leadership skills, high performance leadership training equips leaders to create the conditions necessary for their teams to perform at their peak.

Based upon over 25 years of organizational alignment research, we know that aligned companies and teams significantly outperform their peers in terms of revenue growth, profitability, customer loyalty, leadership effectiveness, and employee engagement.

We also know that not all leadership actions are created equal. To improve performance, leaders must take different steps that depend upon their specific industry, unique business strategy, distinct organizational culture, and varied workforce.

This one-of-a-kind leadership workshop effectively guides leaders through strategy, culture, and talent research and teaches them how to motivate and align their teams to perform at their peak.

It was a challenge to find a consultant with an approach to performance improvement that fit our unique performance culture and style. We were pleasantly surprised to discover LSA’s depth of expertise in the fields of motivation, developmental coaching, performance management, and measurement.

LSA seamlessly integrated those components without our folks feeling like the intervention was forced. They understood what we were trying to accomplish, helped us clarify our objectives, and created a solid, refreshing approach that quickly got us moving and engaged at all levels across the organization.

Overall, I couldn’t be happier that we found a true strategy and implementation partner in LSA.

What a refreshing change from the half-baked psycho-babble you normally get from training and consulting organizations. LSA gives you the practical and results-oriented assistance you need to define and reach your goals.

Their leadership, management, and sales expertise has been invaluable. They think strategically and provide a results driven plan – not just a temporary fix.

They are great to work with, and even more importantly, they “get it!”

Having taken on a new executive leadership role, one of my first calls was to LSA Global to help my leadership team to design, implement, and cascade clear strategic plans. First, LSA helped our leadership team identify the strategy, culture, and talent areas that mattered most to create organizational alignment.

Then they helped facilitate the design of a strategic growth plan that is clear, compelling, believable, and implementable. We now have 100% commitment from an aligned leadership team and key stakeholders going forward.

I would recommend LSA to anyone who wants to create high levels of strategic alignment, growth, and performance.

Our leaders and managers galvanized as a team and are better prepared for the rigors of a leading their teams in a very competitive and fast-changing market.

Mitch Mandich

LSA’s executive coach based his approach on understanding our business circumstances and strategy, as well as our leadership aspirations. The customized coaching covered all aspects of leadership; it was not simply a touchy-feely endeavor.

In fact, the focus on clear business outcomes and real life circumstances challenged me as a senior leader to develop my thinking and actions related to leading the business.”

Janet Pagano
Managing Director

At the onset of our engagement with LSA, I was skeptical that an outside firm would be able to understand and dissect our organization’s highly complex and technical business challenges.

However, through the leadership team interview and strategy retreat processes that LSA utilized, they provided a fresh, innovative, and practical perspective that created tremendous strategic value and focus for our executive leadership team.

As a result, I would highly recommend LSA Global to any leader struggling with building the strategic alignment and high performance teams necessary to generate sales growth, in a way that fits their unique corporate culture.

I highly recommend them to anyone looking to take their leaders and the performance of their teams to the next level.
