Alignment

To help us get acquainted, three quick questions: 1) Do you want to optimize your company’s vision, productivity, and results? 2) Would you like to maximize your time, talent, and teamwork? 3) Are you passionate about leadership, growth, and prosperity?


Hopefully, your answers are all yes.


If they’re not, best of luck to you.


If they are, let’s see if we can help.


At Straticos, we empower leadership teams to effectively envision, run, scale, and (when ready) exit great companies. 


We do this through:  


1) Business Operating Systems 

Using the BOS-UP programs, we help leadership teams effectively learn, implement, and benefit from a simple but comprehensive, custom-tailored business operating system (BOS), powered by Ninety. Your customized BOS will equip your company with the essential concepts, tools, and disciplines it takes to have a focused, aligned, and thriving organization.  


2) Business + Executive Coaching       

Our consultative, empathy-based approach to personal and professional development, is geared to generate insights, action, and results. We specialize at improving company and individual performance, by helping you identify, learn, and leverage new skills, strategies, disciplines - with an emphasis on great leadership, management, teamwork & healthy accountability.


To note, since 2015 - Straticos, and their Founder Scott Abbott - has successfully implemented tailored BOS solutions and the Ninety platform in 100s of startups, small, and midsize companies - and Scott has personally conducted 1000s of 1-1 business & executive coaching sessions. 


Now, what's your situation? 


If you’re like most companies, you're looking to grow from good to great (or stay great) with care and confidence, and can utilize and leverage a customized business operating system, along with trusted and experienced business and executive coaching, to help you: 


+ clarify and achieve your goals/plans

+ minimize challenges and frustrations

+ maximize output, income, and impact


If you are genuinely ready to optimize your performance in business, work, and life ... by having your entire organization consistently focused, aligned, and thriving ... then let's connect, and see if we’re a great fit for working together.  

Solution

Business & Executive Coaching

Our customized solution is ideal for the leadership teams (3-10 people) of companies with 15-250 employees, and $10M - $250M in revenues. The one year (approximately 10-to-13 months) engagement, consists of 2 Phases: 


Phase 1 (Builder): Learn, Develop & Implement (3 all-day sessions, with additional support: 9-12 weeks). 

Phase 2 (Scaler): Leverage, Validate & Enhance (4 all-day sessions, with additional support: 8-10 months).


Phase 1 consists of 3 all-day, hands-on, in-person workshop sessions, whereby you and your leadership team members will effectively learn, develop, implement, and start to benefit from your custom-tailored business operating system (BOS). At the same time, through a mix of business and executive coaching, you will also learn to actualize the essential concepts, tools, and disciplines it takes to optimize your performance in business, work & life. 


At the conclusion of Phase 1, you and your leadership team will be equipped with the software platform, tools, plan, playbook, and knowledge that will help you guide, run, build, and grow a successful, resilient company. 


Phase 2 includes meeting every 90 days for two one full-day Quarterly Planning & Development Sessions, along with meeting for a 2-day Annual Planning & Development Session. All of these sessions include a blend of business reviews, strategy consulting, skills development, and team building. 


Combined, there will be a total of 7 all-day sessions, over a 10-to-13-month period. In addition to your sessions and as part of your solution/investment, we will also conduct quarterly, 90 minute 1-1 Executive Coaching Sessions, with each member of your Senior Leadership Team (SLT). We will also attend/coach 2-3 of your weekly SLT meetings, over the course of the first-year engagement. In addition to scheduled sessions, we are available on an as-needed basis.   


For the record, all of our work is 100% guaranteed: If you do not feel that you received value or have issues with anything, you don’t pay - and you can cancel your engagement at anytime. 


* Please note that all business owner clients sign a mutual non-disclosure and confidentiality agreement, which is part of the Solution Overview & Services Agreement that you will receive if you choose to have a Fit Meeting.
