 Your Priorities

Leaders and teams can expect four business outcomes once they have defined a clear and compelling strategy.

  1. Increased profit and revenue while creating a delighted, loyal, and satisfied customer. 

  2. A reputation for being a strategic partner to the customers who matter most to them.

  3. Improved engagement, performance and profit per employee.

  4. Decreased new customer acquisition costs.

At Claris Consulting, we help you get crystal-clear about your strategy. It is never one-size-fits-all, off-the-shelf. Your strategy is created purposefully, not accidentally, and allows you to accomplish your goals faster, meet challenges with greater effectiveness, and pursue new opportunities with confidence, courage, and competence.

There are four positive results leaders and teams receive by excelling at execution. 

  1. Five employees accomplish the work of eight employees with lower administrative and overhead costs.

  2. The opportunity to focus on the vital few actions that drive performance while reducing failure and redundant work by 50 percent.

  3. Accomplishment of strategic initiatives at a faster pace and with fewer false starts.

  4. Higher levels of customer delight and satisfaction.

At Claris Consulting, we help you reduce all non-vital work that slows performance while also innovating new products and services that delight your customers. We help you identify the team members, skills, and competencies needed to make your work become known for its radical departure from the ordinary, and an exemplar of a relentless pursuit of high customer value. 

There are four benefits you should seek from your talent development initiatives.

  1. The members of your team experience a compelling degree of positive and purposeful urgency and a bias for action.

  2. Employees willingly raise the bar on their own performance without being prompted by management.

  3. You become a magnet for top-tier talent and are approached continually for the opportunities you provide.

  4. Your culture exemplifies continual learning, growth, and the mentoring of others.  

Every organization has a deep reservoir of talent that is not achieving its full potential. At Claris Consulting, we take a pragmatic and aspirational approach to talent development. Simply put, we help leaders and teams create high-value stakeholder relationships that guarantee high-impact results.

You can expect four business outcomes when you bring mindset training to your organization.

  1. Increased speed of change and growth with less friction.

  2. A boost in confidence, courage, curiosity, and clarity.

  3. Increased employee well-being and satisfaction.

  4. Improved experimentation, innovation, and strategic risk-taking.

A key difference between unsuccessful and successful individuals and teams is their mindset—what happens in between their ears. At Claris Consulting, we help you identify the mental habits that hold you and your team back, and we show you how to break them permanently. We provide practical strategies for creating a mindset that enables creativity, collaboration and consistent growth.

Transformational leaders share four common characteristics. They all possess:

  1. A laser-focused purpose from which they make explicit promises and set priorities.

  2. A commitment to cascade excellence throughout every level of their organization with courage, humility and discipline. 

  3. An authentic conviction for loving deeply, learning daily, and leading boldly.

  4. The courage to remove any and all low level activities from their calendar and ruthlessly focus on the vital few activities (20 percent) that create 80 percent of their success and satisfaction.

If you aspire to achieve greatness for yourself, as well as enable greatness in others, partner with Claris Consulting: we help successful leaders become even more successful. We challenge you, encourage you, mystify you, and ultimately, catapult you to the achievement of your highest hopes, dreams, and aspirations. As your partner in success, we are committed to helping you become the very best leader you can be.
