Typically our client relationships are highly collaborative. We aim to become a trusted advisor, coach and partner in change – rather than a textbook consultant, a "hired gun" who builds a binder and moves on to the next project. Our engagements are shaped by thorough assessments and wide-ranging conversations, which help both Brimstone and the client to get clear on the current state and desired future outcomes.

That said, organizational change efforts tend to follow certain patterns, and over the years we have developed a series of programs – our "solutions" – that leverage these lessons to bring structure and discipline to Brimstone engagements. These programs provide the foundation for many of our client partnerships.

Senior Team Alignment Process (STAP) – An organization, to paraphrase Ralph Waldo Emerson, is the lengthening shadow of its Senior Team. When the Senior Team is not aligned, the organization cannot be aligned. And without alignment, performance suffers. STAP is Brimstone's proven methodology to help clients gain – and sustain – the coordination, collaboration and clarity that deliver results.

Performance Leadership (PL) – Once a Senior Team has achieved alignment around the organization's strategies, vision and values, it must confront the critical issues standing in the way of world-class performance and capitalize on the richest opportunities for growth and profitability. In this pursuit, the Senior Team should leverage the skills and talents of its best and brightest employees, providing them with coaching, guidance and an unparalleled leadership development opportunity. PL is our platform for accelerating an organization’s ability to deliver real financial results while simultaneously developing the leadership skills of a core group of change agents.

Shared Leadership – Brimstone's Shared Leadership program promotes engagement by challenging employees to complete quick-cycle projects while living the organization’s leadership values and receiving coaching from senior executives. Participants gain a valuable leadership development opportunity; sponsoring executives gain insights into the people in their organization; and the company achieves financial results from the project outcomes.

Leadership Forum – The Forum is Brimstone's curriculum framework that helps senior executives to envision, design and deliver their master's course in leadership development. Just as importantly, the Forum provides senior executives with a platform for transforming the organization and delivering breakthrough financial improvements through a series of true action-learning experiences.

Executive Coaching – We believe that for organizations to change, people must change – and people have more success changing when they have a good coach. Coaching should be a positive, transparent and customized investment in a leader's growth and development. It should improve the chances of success for that individual – and, ultimately, for the organization. Brimstone coaches bring to our engagements a disciplined process, a proven toolkit and a flexible approach based on the client's specific needs and goals.
