Leadership Development Program

We worked with Relevant Solutions to build a custom leadership development/readiness program. The program was deliberately structured to activate, assess and develop identified talent from within our organization. Participants were engaged and enthused with the exercise structure, dialog and increased understanding of field leadership roles and responsibilities. Especially well received was the addition of active mentorship in the program as well as using live and virtual engagement to build skills

The results of the program are remarkable with 65% of participants successfully transitioning into a leadership position in the field. Even after introducing the new program 2 years ago it is still the most talked about and anticipated field leadership development program we offer.

Leadership Essentials

Leadership Essentials has made me a better leader, as I have taken my organization from start up to commercialization. The basis of this program allowed me to further hone a style from visionary – leading the organization, to implementation. As a leader of a small company, you very often are interacting  with the organization on several levels.  The skills I learned from this model have helped me to have a higher level of connectivity through many layers of the organization and allowed me to adapt to the needs of my audience.

Executive Coaching

In addition to the content that Relevant Solutions offers, much of the success we’ve experienced is directly related to the expertise of Mike and Joe. For many of us at Sanofi Pasteur, they’ve become more than just trainers and coaches, but credible advisors who I can call on for reliable and sound coaching advice. Their focus on individual professional development has been a personal benefit in my career.

Joe has been a unique resource to me for leadership mentoring and coaching that allowed me to realize my full potential early on in my career and he has continued to be a valuable sounding board to me as a seasoned pharma executive. I've always found Joe to be incredibly insightful regarding his ability to help talented individuals navigate their careers and their personal development. I've used the firm in a number of capacities ranging from 1:1 executive coaching to facilitating strategic framework sessions with teams, enabling me to successfully lead for change and successfully set purpose, ambition, and critical success factors for new commercial assignments and turn-around opportunities.
