Challenge

“Our team is broken.” The Chief of a global leadership group described a team of exceptional individual performers — each talented and accomplished — yet unable to work together effectively. Dysfunctional dynamics were undermining trust and performance.

Solution

NewlandRock delivered a 6-month leadership effectiveness immersion designed to shift mindset from individual contributor to collective leader.

• One-to-one executive coaching & group coaching
• Communication frameworks to drive shared decision-making
• Rebuilding team identity and establishing collaboration agreements

Outcome

From a fragmented group to a unified team, leaders aligned on purpose, strategy, and behaviour. Structures, strategic priorities, and reward strategies were created and cascaded, embedding lasting performance improvements.

“We went from polite updates to genuine collaboration. This changed how we work — and think — together.” — Client Leader
