We’ve seen it time and again: senior leaders who are incredibly smart and capable, but whose habits have become a bit too rigid. They rely on the same patterns that brought them success, unaware that what worked before might now be holding them back.

If you’re wondering if this applies to you, consider the risks: reduced influence, disengaged teams, missed opportunities, and even stalled careers. What got you here may not be enough to keep you at the top.

Ready to explore what’s next? 

With exclusive rates for P&G Alumni, our team of ICF-certified coaches—also P&G Alumni—are ready to partner with you to uncover these patterns, strengthen your agility, and help you expand your leadership impact in today’s complex environment.
