Approach to Leadership Development

Some individuals know what they need to work on but do not have the "technology," pathway, or process to change. Other individuals have "blind spots," and do not have the awareness of what to change.

AR & Associates prefer to work with objective data to accurately hone a development plan for customized individual change. The unique combination of 360 ratings and personality data provides a clear direction for each individual. Their understanding of both the individual and the company helps to align the goals of the individual with the strategic direction of the organization.

While major writers in the field only discuss enhancing an individual's competencies, AR & Associates have the expertise to help individuals not only build on their strengths, but also change those behaviors which, if not altered, would continue to impact their effectiveness.

"Years of experience of our consultants blends good data with intuitive expertise to connect with our clients and promote change. A sense of humor doesn't hurt, either."

Art Resnikoff, Ph.D. Founder, AR & Associates

"Art Resnikoff of AR & Associates has worked with our senior level executives to improve their leadership effectiveness. He continues to work with us on improving our talent management process by providing effective one-on-one coaching/feedback to our high potentials throughout the company."

 "Today's companies need effective leaders at every level and in every location. Because of the information technology revolution, globalization, and other factors, leadership is a requirement up and down the line."
