Strategies for Anticipation, Acceleration and Reinvention

Services

I work with executives and small teams. My clients vary. Many are CEOs, senior leaders of start-up businesses or key teams within a larger, established organization.

I also work with individuals who are trying to sort through key strategic decisions regarding their life or career.

I typically speak with my clients at regular intervals and interact as often as necessary to make progress on the objectives we set together for our collaboration – even if they just need a quick minute to bounce something off a trusted advisor. I like to call it just-in-time strategic advice.

My advisory work is concentrated on two types of services.

Acceleration

 ac•cel•er•a•tion noun \ik-ˌse-lə-ˈrā-shən, (ˌ)ak-\

: the act or process of moving faster

: the act or process of accelerating

So much of what people need to know to succeed is not taught; we often have to pick up those lessons ourselves the hard way. I help leaders accelerate their company or career by leveraging lessons from peak performers in a variety of fields as well as from an innovative and proprietary system to learn from mistakes.

Ion’s presentation was the most thought-provoking of the conference; his lessons on negotiation are still being talked about today. Ion is a dynamic and engaging speaker who can give you the insights you need to take your organization, business strategy or life to the next level.

Ion’s professional development workshops compressed his 20 years of experience into 4 hours of insights packed with practical applications. I learned so much in that half-day that I’ve been able to apply to my own career, and his strategic advice since then has been an invaluable resource when I’m faced with a particularly thorny problem or dilemma. Everyone should have someone like Ion in their corner when facing professional challenges …I have used and reused my learnings with my team and have been able to see a significant shift from where we are to where we would like to be. To me, those sessions with Ion, has been an investment for a lifetime.

Ion’s message about the power of learning from mistakes stands out in a crowded field of leadership advice. The Magnificent Mistake Management Workshop helped our senior leaders recognize the power of transforming their mistakes and provided the tools to leverage them into actionable improvements for our organization. The results from his work with us have been immediate and impactful.

The environment we operate in is extremely dynamic and the role of strategic planning is critical. In early 2015, we began working with Ion. His systematic approach to strategic planning took what is sometimes esoteric and made it tangible. Ion’s impressive work has made a significant impact to our business: we are in a far better place – with more specific and well thought through plans – than we were when we started the process. I highly recommend Ion to any business looking to strategically reinvent themselves or accelerate their organization’s growth.
