"Working with Gannett.Partners has been one of my most impactful and high-leverage experiences. It's hard to fully quantify the benefits of Chris' executive coaching — between the strengths and blind spots analysis and the actionable steps he provided, my leadership capacity and self-awareness have noticeably elevated. He’s a consummate professional, human-centred, and a great listener. He always remembers the details and asks the right questions. I have recommended Chris to several others!"

EXECUTIVE COACHING

Our balanced approach of championing and challenging helps deepen awareness, question assumptions, and unlock perspective.

We believe leadership is the ultimate lever for positive change and value creation. Gannett.Partners offers services to individuals, investors and enterprises seeking a personalized, transformative experience in a business context. We work with driven individuals who dig deep for what they want, and focus on executives who acknowledge the inner voices that challenge us to experience and achieve more. Executive Coaching - as opposed to Advising - focuses on the soft skills and mindsets that the most effective leaders require today including cognitive agility, empathy, professional intimacy, leadership presence, resilience and effective communication. Coaching provides invaluable tools for developing high potential individuals who want to increase self-confidence, make better decisions, improve relationships and leverage their personal strengths. Together we'll spark new ways of thinking to enable you to find your own answers and help hold you accountable to the changes you want to make. GP Coaches are certified in Berkeley's Active Communicating® methodology and industry-leading Leadership Circle assessments, and affiliated with Harvard Medical School's McLean Institute of Coaching. Our proprietary Integral Resilience® (IR) methodology is an intentionally implemented, tech-enabled coaching solution designed to craft leaders who elevate company culture, employee retention and financial performance, and remain calmer and more in control. Our approach is complemented by best-in-class assessment tools that enable us to uncover key patterns of performance, including a leader’s strengths, risks, motivations, and underlying assumptions to enable transformational change. Coaching can be especially helpful in times of transition or uncertainty, and may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE depending on your situation. Sources: Proprietary Data, BetterUp, Manchester, Inc.

Operating Advisory can bridge periods of transition, accelerate new ventures or address ongoing gaps in your organization’s skillset. We arm our clients and companies with expertise to define fields of opportunity, create powerful brand concepts, raise capital, launch and grow products and design operational structures to own the next horizon of innovation.
