The Merkel Group, LLC

Leaders in almost every Industry are facing unprecedented challenges - environmental and social advocacy, regulation, rapidly advancing technology, changing demographics and workforce expectations, to name a few ... As if these pressures weren’t enough, executives often share with me that their biggest frustrations stem from within their organization – for example: • Heritage culture and leadership behaviors are ineffective at engaging today’s workforce • Functional organizations are struggling to collaborate effectively to achieve broader goals • Key executives or managers are lacking in breadth of experience and leadership capability Misalignment in such areas has enormous costs – customers are adversely impacted, sales and profitability suffer, cross-functional projects are delayed, innovation and creativity are stifled, and key talent becomes disengaged or departs. At The Merkel Group, we help senior leaders to: • Clearly define and communicate their strategy • Create a culture that inspires and motivates employees • Enable more effective accountability and collaboration • Retain and develop the most talented employees As a former senior executive with ExxonMobil, I have successfully navigated challenges similar to those that you are facing right now. I’ve faced the pressure of P&L responsibility for large businesses with revenues exceeding $20 billion. I have a track record of delivering breakthrough results. As a strategic advisor and certified executive coach, I bring a unique perspective combined with the practical experience that helps my clients to deliver breakthrough results of their own. If you are ready to take your leadership and your business results to an entirely new level, please send me a brief description of your current challenge at brad@merkelgroup.com. I will reply with a few thoughts.
