Every company has different performance improvement needs. And the way they're trained to make those changes—and/or are supported in making them—can vary, too. Some companies require intensive consulting that lasts for weeks. Others may simply need a one- or two-day workshop. That's why we at Tom Devane & Associates offer a variety of services and methods to help our clients enjoy dramatic, sustainable performance improvement.

• Consulting. Maybe you aren't sure how much or what type of change your company needs to achieve maximum business results. Or maybe you know exactly where you want to go but need some guidance to get there. Either way, Tom Devane & Associates can help. We offer on-site consulting for areas including, but not limited to: workplan development for transformation efforts, executive team development, process analysis, using metrics to drive results, advice on options at major project decision points and situations requiring advanced facilitation skills such as conflict management, initial improvement project selection, and rapid five-day process redesign sessions.

• Teleconsulting. Are you looking for an economical alternative to traditional on-site consulting? Tom Devane & Associates provides teleconsulting services in areas such as executive coaching, facilitated problem solving, providing rapid, succinct answers to transformation problems, general project management assistance, and certain topics for training. It's a great way to enable leaders at different corporate locations to participate in consulting sessions without actually having to be present in the same room. Telecconsulting is available in both audio and video formats.

• On-site Executive Briefings. In today’s fast-paced work environment top and middle leaders need to keep up with current leadership topics, but don’t often have the time. These briefings provide a quick, effective way for leaders to receive contemporary best practices, and also have a meaningful dialogue about them. Depending on the topic and depth desired, leadership briefings may be conducted on-site, or through audio or video teleconference. Sample topics include: the use of metrics to drive results, effective integration of hard and soft aspects of performance and continuous improvement, the use of high-performance teams to achieve dramatic, sustainable results, and best practices in transformational leadership.

• Coaching. From initiation to design to implementation, the road to LSS/HPO integration can be long and challenging. Leaders often need support and advice along the way. Our executive coaching service will help keep your senior leaders on track so that they can keep their teams on track . . . and performance improvement can be completed successfully and sustained over time. Both individual coaching and “top team development” coaching is available.
