What are you ready to initiate?

Initiate Consulting exists to help executives and their teams develop and sustain an intentional focus on evolving as leaders, to align with the changing needs of their organizations.

Welcome to Initiate Consulting

Being a leader in today’s workplaces brings a different challenge nearly every day. To be effective, you need a partner who can quickly get up to speed with your realities and support you in leading with purpose.

Running the Business

Without hesitation, executives know their business goals. Yet when asked what leadership mindset and behaviors they need to exhibit to ensure those outcomes, there’s often a pause.

Time and again, executives confess that purposefully thinking about how they are leading falls to the back burner. Constant requests for their time and attention rarely afford them time to think about the impact they’re having on those around them.

Tuning In to Leadership

In the midst of running a business that’s always changing, the question is: How can you ensure you’re paying attention to what your organization needs most from you as a leader?

This is where Initiate can help.
