The Pivotal Leadership Trio TM

A corporation’s character is established by the Pivotal Leadership Trio™:

• The Board of Directors
• The CEO
• The Executive Team

An organization’s health is defined by how these executives establish an environment of trust, respect and solidarity. Leadership effectiveness depends on how the Trio players make decisions, listen, collaborate, communicate, align in vision and purpose, and interact with the rest of the organization and their broader constituents.

The Challenge

In today’s business climate, balancing the excitement of growth and the rigor of corporate governance is crucial. To accomplish this, the Pivotal Leadership Trio™ must fully understand and honor its responsibilities and inter-relationships. Expectations need to be clear and in the open. Unhelpful behaviors by any individuals of the Trio need to be addressed to prevent hindering the organization’s performance potential. Actions and communications need to be well thought out within a solid strategic framework to achieve real results.

The Role of Johanne Bouchard

My role as independent advisor is to help each member of the Pivotal Leadership Trio™ achieve his or her optimal performance. I call myself an Executive Leader and Advisor rather than a coach because I come from the operational side as opposed to the HR and OD track. As the basis of any relationship that I build, I commit to creating an environment of openness, trust and confidentiality. As a result of my work, everyone has a more comprehensive and expansive view of the possibilities and feels empowered. Being objective and nonjudgmental enables me to surface the difficult issues that are often unspoken or not fully addressed. In the process, I help people transform themselves and further their organization’s effectiveness.
