11 Ways to Make You Better
Whether you want better meetings, better managers, or better performance, Accendo
International can deliver. We’ll provide support at any level – from assessment to
implementation. And we’ll help you turn great ideas into great results with our 11 proven
methods for accelerating success through human capital.
Career Edge™ Executive Coaching
Organizations don’t attain breakthrough achievements by
thinking big first. They start small – with an idea and the
potential of an individual to effect a sea change and lift a
company to an entirely new level.
Through Career Edge™ Executive Coaching, we improve the
engagement and performance of these key individuals, building
upon existing talents and maximizing their unique capabilities.
An Emerging Leaders Track concentrates on those who have
the highest potential and want to grow their careers and make
more impactful contributions. An Executive Track targets those
who are already at the top of their class in terms of talent,
responsibility, and influence, but want to go even higher.
The result of each program is a superior level of individual
performance that sets new standards for every employee,
in every position, closing the gap between the possibility of
achievement and the reality of success.
Recruitment Strategies
Combining research with innovative techniques and industry
best practices, Accendo International builds effective
recruitment strategies by reviewing existing talent acquisition
processes and developing short- and long-term plans specific
to your business and industry. Our systemic approach ensures
consistency and competency throughout the organization and
blends a range of marketing, hiring, and selection methods
to help you put your best foot forward – not just to potential
candidates but toward a winning future.
Executive Search
From executive board members to C-suite leaders to senior-
level managers, Accendo International supports organizations
in executive recruitment by identifying critical position
requirements and conducting in-depth analyses of each
candidate’s capabilities, experience, and qualifications.
We provide you with a comprehensive overview of every eligible
individual. We work closely with you to employ a selection
methodology that allows you to hire the most qualified person for
the job. And we develop customized onboarding plans to prepare
newly hired executives for success from day one.
Executive Board Strategic Planning and
Development
A thriving organization begins with a strong executive board.
At Accendo International, we help corporate and nonprofit
boards drive results by bringing together individual leadership
capabilities to improve collaboration and effectiveness.
We work one-on-one with chairpersons and board members
to assess strengths, uncover obstacles, and create a
comprehensive plan for achieving goals while upholding the
mission, vision, and values of the organization. And we provide
support at virtually any level. Whether coaching individuals,
building stronger teams, creating succession plans, developing
women leaders, or recruiting top executives, we partner
with you to make sure your board effectively guides the
organization to a prosperous future.
Career Maniacs™
This faster-than-fast-track program provides new professionals
and recent college graduates with one-on-one coaching to
establish a career strategy and develop the necessary skills for
success. Using a proven approach, we drive potential, awaken
self-awareness of capabilities, and clarify goals and direction.
Our range of tools and resources – from resume development to
effective interviewing techniques – helps recent graduates get the
job they want. And new professionals benefit from a 12-month
program focused on establishing competitive advantages unique
to each individual, allowing them to exceed expectations and
positively contribute to enterprise-wide performance.
X Advantage™
Gender diversity in the leadership team leads to better
outcomes, improved productivity, and greater creativity and
innovation. Research supports that statement, and our
X Advantage™ program leverages the proven role of women in
accelerating corporate achievement.
We identify and address the barriers in developing women
leaders, shape a plan to remove those challenges and hone
their skills, and align their strengths and talents to personal,
professional, and organizational goals.
By working together to engage women in leadership roles
within your organization, Accendo International can help you
reduce the turnover rate of women versus men, improve your
image in the marketplace, and recruit and retain even more
top-performing individuals down the road.
Leadership Development
Leaders aren’t born. They’re made. And turning your
strongest performers into top-notch leaders requires the right
combination of challenge, empowerment, development, and
recognition.
Accendo International ignites effective leadership through
customized, hands-on workshops tailored specifically to your
business and your goals. We help you give your employees the
motivation to learn new roles, the empowerment to embrace
broader responsibilities, the ability to achieve the highest level
of performance, and the positive reinforcement necessary for
long-term achievement.
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
Employee Engagement is the extent to which an employee is
connected and committed - intellectually and emotionally -- to
accomplish the work, mission, and vision of the organization.
It is a key driver to performance and productivity, and
organizations with strong employee engagement programs
tend to have better financial performance, reduced attrition,
and greater employee satisfaction.
We have the expertise, tools, and resources to assess your
culture and environment, and then work with you to develop a
plan that specifically targets the areas with the greatest
opportunity for change, growth, and success. In addition to
tackling engagement across the organization, we also coach
executives, senior, and mid-level managers on best practices,
strategies, and tactics that increase engagement on a
departmental, team, and individual level.
Team Development
It’s no secret that more effective teams lead to more
prosperous organizations. Accendo International helps you
achieve greater productivity and financial success by bringing
together the strengths of your existing human capital with
specific tasks and objectives to ensure the highest level of
teamwork.
We guide employees in understanding how individual
contributions affect larger teams, provide tools and resources
to promote communication and avoid dysfunctional habits, and
establish accountability measures and development plans to drive
accomplishments.
With the skills and knowledge essential for seamless teamwork,
organizational potential turns into operational results, and a new
work environment emerges – one that is defined by collaboration,
flawless execution, and exceptional outcomes.
Performance Assessments
A clear-eyed, objective evaluation of strengths, risks,
opportunities, and challenges can be critical in encouraging
individual achievements and moving your company forward.
We manage the detail-driven process of performance
assessments, measuring a full range of competencies and
creating aggressive, realistic development plans to deliver the
insight you need to realize the full potential of your existing
talent.
We tie each evaluation to specific, verifiable metrics
and maximize outcomes through ongoing coaching and
development sessions, bridging the gap between the
performance of your employees today and all they can achieve
tomorrow.
Strategic Planning and Execution
Without strategic execution, an idea is just an idea, and a
problem that needs a solution is just that – a problem. But by
leveraging the unique skills and abilities of your employees
and matching them to specific organizational goals and
objectives, Accendo International can help you set the bar high
and achieve your target.
We can review your current strategic plan, identify potential
challenges and avoid them altogether, put the right people
in the right places to accomplish the desired outcomes, drive
performance through ongoing training and education, and
develop and monitor key indicators to measure your success.
5 Reasons to Partner with
Accendo International

The strategists of Accendo International operate under a business model

built on five distinct principles that separate us from other human capital
consultants. This is how we make individuals, teams, and organizations better:

Improving. Not Changing Knowing vs. Doing

We’re not interested in changing the way you do business.
By building upon your strengths, we help you become more
effective, more productive, and more profitable, allowing you
to continue to do what you do best – only better.
It’s Always About You
We don’t force clients into prepackaged, boilerplate solutions. We
develop customized strategies based on organizational requirements,
considering your specific challenges, opportunities, strengths, and
risks.
Accountability
We drive strategy execution through a focused process that
minimizes risks and meets deadlines and budget expectations. Key
indicators specific to your organization are developed at every step of
the way to help you measure your success – and ours.
Most consultants are quick to identify a problem and tell
you how to fix it. But there’s a big difference in knowing
something needs to be done and actually having the
bandwidth to do it. We help you move from strategy to
implementation by putting action behind your ideas and
translating them into tangible results.
Shared Goals
Unlike some consultants who listen quietly, offer a vague
proposal for improvement, and walk away at execution,
Accendo International partners with clients to create a
strategy that aligns existing talent and resources with
organizational priorities and objectives. Then, working
closely with you, we make sure it happens.
