The dynamic between CEOs and Boards must prioritize collaboration over conflict, emphasizing trust and open dialogue. Executive coaching strengthens this relationship by enhancing communication, aligning strategic goals, and improving leadership skills. This approach fosters unity, leading to better decision-making and sustainable growth across the organization. #Governance #Strategy #BoardDirector #CEO #ExecutiveCoach #Collaboration #CEOBoardRelationship #Unity #NancyCapistran #CrisisManagementAdvisor #CapistranLeadership #ExpandingHumanExcellence Anouk Pappers Aarushi Kapoor Tara Goodwin https://lnkd.in/egSKWfyX

I am thrilled to share my latest Harvard Business Review article, co-authored with my dear friend, Susan Peppercorn, PCC, "4 Strategies to Guide Your Team Through a Departmental Transition." Navigating departmental transitions demands that leaders champion clear communication, emotional intelligence, ownership, and a culture of continuous learning. By focusing on these four priorities, leaders can turn potential disruptions into opportunities for growth and renewal.

Thrilled that #FixingLeadership has started to make its way to leaders inboxes and mailboxes everywhere! My newest book addresses the systemic gaps facing leaders and organizations today: 📌 Why conventional leadership development methods fail 📌 Why we're not investing in the next generation 📌 What skills we need to, but aren't teaching 📌 What we need to be teaching, and 📌 How to teach skills so we remember and can apply them #Leaders - this book is for you. Remember: 1. If you don't invest in your leadership, you're not learning how to solve your own or your organizations' challenges - you become stuck where you are 2. If you're not investing in others' growth and building other leaders, the weight of change and organizational improvement all falls to you - you remain the bottleneck, stuck where you are 3. If there is no succession; no pay-it-forward - then there is no legacy. The walls fall down behind you and the collective impact and economic worth of your enterprise implodes. The leadership vacuum we are seeing - IS NOT SOMEONE ELSE'S PROBLEM. Arm yourself today with the tools you'll need tomorrow to be and do better. https://lnkd.in/gGqXNghU
