Leadership Strategy Sessions
One-on-one working sessions with Sophie to solve the people and performance issues slowing your team's growth.
Hybrid work that never settles, AI and new tools reshaping roles, a multigenerational team with different expectations, and constant pressure to deliver. Leadership Strategy Sessions create focused time to dissect live situations, cut through noise, and decide what to do next.
Join Sophie for a complimentary 20-minute Intro Session, a short working conversation to test the fit and see how these sessions can move your team forward.
What Are Intro Sessions?
If you’re considering working with Sophie, the best place to start is a complimentary 20-minute Leadership Strategy Intro Session. This is a one-on-one working conversation designed to see whether the format and focus are a good fit.
-
Bring one live leadership or team issue (for example, hybrid misalignment, a difficult performance conversation, or AI adoption concerns).
-
Get Sophie’s perspective on what’s really driving the friction.
-
Decide together whether longer Leadership Strategy Sessions make sense.

What to Expect
Sophie's Leadership Strategy Sessions are working time, not theory. Leaders use them to work through challenges like:
- Hybrid and distributed teams that feel misaligned:Â Clarifying expectations, rhythms, and decision rights so people stop pulling in different directions.
- Pressure to adopt AI and new tools without burning people out:Â Deciding where technology genuinely adds leverage, how to communicate changes, and how to keep standards high.
- Multigenerational teams with very different expectations:Â Addressing differences in communication, motivation, and working styles without lowering the bar on performance.
- Reporting lines, roles, and workflows that no longer fit the work: Simplifying how work gets done so people know what “good” looks like and how to deliver it.
- Leading through constant change:Â Aligning your message, setting boundaries, and creating stability even when priorities, markets, or tools keep shifting.
Every conversation is grounded in current realities, not abstract models.

Is This Right For You?Â
Leadership Strategy Sessions are designed for leaders who:
- Own a team, function, or business unit with clear performance expectations
- Operate in fast-moving or constantly shifting environments
- Need their team to execute while strategy, tools, and constraints keep changing
- Want a direct, strategic counterpart outside the internal politics
If that describes your world, these sessions are built for you.
How The Sessions Work
These are structured one-on-one working sessions focused on your real leadership and team challenges.
You set the focus. Before the session, you share a brief note: what’s happening, what’s at stake, and what would be a good outcome.
You and Sophie map what’s really going on. Together, you unpack the problem across people, structures, tech, incentives, and expectations—not just the surface symptoms.
You co-design practical next moves. You leave with a small set of specific actions, decisions, or conversations to move things forward—not a long to-do list.
You receive a concise recap. After the session, Sophie sends a short summary of key insights and next steps, so you can revisit, refine, or share as needed.
Sessions are candid, pragmatic, and oriented toward movement. The aim is clarity and traction, not more noise.
