Preparing Today’s Talent for Tomorrow’s Challenges

Organizations are constantly evolving. From shifting internal priorities to rapidly changing market conditions, agility and resilience have never been more essential to enterprise success.

These forces are challenging senior leaders to adapt. They’re pushing high-potential candidates into senior roles more quickly than they may be fully prepared for. This complex environment and its impact on executive leadership underscores a pressing need for organizations to ensure their leaders and the teams they lead are ready for what lies ahead.

We help you make the most of your greatest asset — your people. Our strategic data-driven approach to developing executive talent provides the clarity and direction needed to address complex challenges and prepare your organization for the future.

Strategy-Focused

We believe leadership and executive development is most effective when clearly linked to team and organizational goals and strategy. Our processes and practices are designed to increase communication, align goals and address roadblocks to effective leadership.

Tailored

We believe one-size-fits-all approaches to talent development and management are ineffective. We create your coaching, assessment and development solutions based on your priorities, culture and competitive environment to ensure success.

Deep Expertise

With 40 years of experience helping enterprises generate tangible results, we leverage a unique breadth of expertise, delivering on proven strategies with a track record of continuous success.

What We Do

We’ve spent decades helping organizations tether coaching to strategy. By understanding your organization’s goals and the role that individuals play in achieving them, we develop tailored coaching programs that directly support your key priorities. Be it current executives, succession candidates or high-potential leaders, our solutions are designed to help your people generate outcomes with a measurable business impact. From developmental coaching to onboarding and transitional support, and from team development to coaching strategic planning, we support you with a comprehensive, yet flexible suite of coaching services.

Our Success is Yours

We partner with our clients to drive strong results. Here are some of the ways we have helped:

Executive Coaching

With global expansion on the horizon, a Fortune 100 manufacturing company needed senior leaders to embrace a significant change to the way they received and delivered feedback.

Cambria coached the CEO and his senior team to assess their strengths and development areas and set an example from the top down.

After two years of coaching, the company’s cultural shift empowered the entire organization to operate at a global level.

Who We Serve

Excelerated Executive Development

A global bank wanted to deploy an assessment and succession management application to its top executives.

Cambria developed a custom solution that integrated data from various performance sources, eliminating configuration issues. We designed a talent review form with read-only and editable data from different sources, alongside customized management assessments.

The new review system not only leveraged employee profiles, but also introduced a promotion process for the firm’s most senior employees.

Who We Serve

Transition Coaching

A multinational finance firm faced difficulties finding a CIO who could navigate both business and technology.

After two unsuccessful transitions, the firm sought coaching for the new CIO, who not only faced a difficult role, but was also adapting to a new corporate culture.

Cambria coached them through the six-month onboarding process. Ultimately, the new hire completed a seamless transition and was prepared to make an immediate business impact.
