Aligning Leadership with a New Strategic Direction

Results at a Glance

• Created critical success factors for leadership effectiveness
• Defined and embedded a new leadership benchmark
• Elevated team alignment & interdependencies
• Personalised development plans for each leader

Challenge

A client had launched a bold new strategy to accelerate growth, but after 12 months, cracks were showing. The leadership team driving the change had inherited roles but were still leading in old ways — slowing progress and creating misalignment.

Solution

NewlandRock conducted a deep strategy and leadership assessment to uncover why execution was faltering.

• Defined core leadership behaviours to drive the new strategy
• Mapped team capabilities against a new leadership benchmark
• Collected multiple data points to identify specific performance gaps

From this blueprint, we launched a dual-track programme:

1. Personalised Leadership Effectiveness Coaching
2. Team Alignment & Development Sessions

Outcome

The leadership team aligned their behaviours and strategy execution approach. Individual coaching accelerated personal impact while group interventions strengthened collective decision-making and clarified interdependencies — enabling the strategy to gain momentum.
