The Situation

During our first on-site session, we helped the team see the real issue: This wasn’t a strategy problem—it was a leadership alignment problem.

Using Workbench’s framework, we shifted the focus from “What’s wrong?” to “What’s next?”

Together, we broke the five-year plan into 12-month and 90-day goals—turning abstract ambition into concrete action.

Over the next six months, we paired executive coaching for the CEO with quarterly off-sites for the leadership team.

Together, we:

+ Built a company dashboard with clear operational + financial metrics
+ Set focused goals for every leader
+ Created a cadence of accountability that actually stuck

For the first time, the CEO had a framework for leading—and the team had clarity about where they were headed.

Six months in, the CEO said something simple but profound: “I finally feel like I have bandwidth.”

That shift meant everything.

+ The leadership team was aligned.
+ Ownership was showing up.
+ Every employee had goals connected to the company’s bigger vision.

+ Clarity replaced confusion.
+ Momentum replaced drift.

Growth isn’t about better plans—it’s about better leadership.

This CEO had the humility to ask for help, the courage to reframe, and the discipline to build a team that could actually row together.

That’s what Workbench does—helps leaders move from stuck to scaling.
