Meet the Team

I’ve used Navalent’s expertise to help redesign two organizations. Their approach is holistic and collaborative.  Their assessment of our business aspirations and current organization helped us understand why we were getting the results we were getting, and it also gave us a pathway to get better together. The detailed work we did to design the business helped my team trust each other more; It got us aligned behind the real changes we needed to implement to make our business operate more seamlessly.  Ultimately, it was a multiplier for our business results. Navalent is a great partner who understands the human impact of change with the experience to help leaders move through it.

Navalent’s approach to executive coaching is dramatically different. They left no stone unturned to help me discover the best parts of my leadership, and the parts getting in my way.  Their integrated approach transformed my ability to lead at the enterprise level, and my understanding of not just my own leadership, but the strategy, organization and team elements of what I had to deliver.  Working with Navalent was game changing for me.”

Co-leading a successful company for twenty years is challenging under any circumstances.  The complexities of friendship, leadership differences, decision making, and setting course for growth will tax any leadership team.  Navalent’s transformative consulting approach to untangling those issues and cutting right to the heart of where we needed to grow as individual executives, as a team, and how to shape the organization to scale, sets them apart.  If you want the Navy-seal team of organizational consultants, here they are.”

Having had the good fortune to lead incredible teams, I have found Navalent’s leadership and business guidance to be invaluable throughout my career. With a true desire to see me succeed, they are an incredible driving force to help me be the best executive I can be. Their strong knowledge of organization design and strategy make them my trusted partners for executive coaching and challenges I face leading my organization.

“Navalent has been my partner of choice for over a decade. Whether I am driving my organization to better performance through organization design or focusing on personal leadership through executive coaching they bring the context, approach, tools, and challenge that enables true change. I’ve worked with many of the name brand big firm competitors of Navalent and none of them can get the results from my organization and leaders that Navalent has produced.”

“My work with Navalent expanded my understanding of organizational talent strategy & heightened my awareness of its connection to operational effectiveness. I valued my OD Directors having access to Navalent’s level of subject matter expertise.  Perhaps more so was the personal level of connection and mentoring relationships that were established.  This reflects Navalent’s ability to secure an intimate understanding of our company & the political landscape. Navalent’s support and direction to our Talent Council was invaluable.  I can’t imagine what the outcome would have been without Navalent’s insight and support.”

I have had the pleasure of working with the Navalent team for more than 12 years in various capacities.  The first was executive coaching for me after a pivotal promotion in which it was critical that my performance would have immediate maximum impact.   After that, I brought them into various large- scale projects, such as a company organization redesign, an overhaul of our executive succession planning and development process, and additional coaching assignments for high potential executives.  Navalent’s work is of the highest caliber and having Navalent as a trusted partner gives me an extra, powerful, tool in my toolbox, which is why I keep them on my team.

Navalent provided executive coaching to me as I began my senior leadership position. Their feedback, support and guidance allowed me to navigate the new challenges of leading at a higher level, address habits and behaviors that were impacting my effectiveness, and build my ability to inspire and lead others.
