Bartell & Bartell, Ltd. Executive Development Sessions are tremendously valuable whether they are for marginal performers who need motivation to help reverse rapidly deteriorating performance, emerging leaders, or world class leaders who simply want to advance to their next level of leadership.

Customized: We begin by assessing precisely where the individual is in his/her development process. We measure a host of dimensions such as:

• Dominant and Recessive Temperaments
  (the foundation on which personality forms)
• Operative Personality Traits
• Leadership Styles
• Vector/Valence (intensity of influence)
• Communication Style and Effectiveness
• Decision Making Style
• Conflict Management
• Delegation and Coaching Skills
• Stress Profile
• Stage of Development

Results Oriented:
These assessment results identify areas that will yield the greatest results through development, and they pinpoint where to intervene. Assessment results allow us to accurately target developmental efforts to achieve the highest level of effectiveness. We tailor our Executive Development Sessions precisely to the needs of the individual.

Our Executive Simulator™ is frequently used to bring advanced leadership theories and concepts down to earth.  Similar to "flight simulators" used by pilots, Executive Simulator™ exercises, put the individual in his/her actual organizational role.  They have an office, assistant, phone, and actual staff (subordinates, peers, superiors) with whom to interact.  The Executive Simulator™ allows him/her to practice new styles, skills, and behavioral changes in a non-threatening environment with close, one-on-one coaching.

Our experience has been that often within one to three days of Executive Development, astounding results can be realized.  This is possible, due to knowing precisely where to intervene and providing an opportunity for the individual to be challenged and developed under the experienced eye of a personal coach.

What our clients have to say about Bartell Executive Development sessions...

"This is one of, if not the most intense sessions I have ever attended, more importantly the most important. Using the tools I have learned here should change my whole organization (for the better) and more importantly the quality of my life and that of my wife and family."
-- Hank Guariello, Sr. (CEO, Nursery Supplies, Inc.)

"Work started getting frustrating to me. 'Don't they get it?' I would ask, until I realized that the way I communicate and the visions I portray have a lot to do with them getting it. My technical skills were exceptional but my people skills needed to be refined. The Bartell organization taught me how to approach tough interactions by teaching me "templates" from their Leadership Tool Box and giving me the skills to frame difficult conversations without either party feeling badly afterwards. The Executive Development Sessions helped me see myself more clearly and opened up my vision to better ways to solve problems that kept me awake at night. Bartell made the difference between my desire for Restek to function as a team versus actually becoming a team. Thanks to the Bartell organization, Restek has become a company where every employee thinks and functions as if they are owners. Bartell helped every Restek employee buy into the vision because they helped coach our management team on how to communicate the vision."
-- Paul Silvis (President and Head Coach, Restek Corporation)

"A Development Session at Bartell & Bartell will help you identify your vision for yourself and your company, align the two, and develop ways you can turn the vision into reality, by fulfilling your leadership role."
-- Jessica May (CEO, National Bearings Company)
