Unlock Your Full Leadership Potential

For 25 years, startups and Fortune 100 giants alike have trusted SLDI to deliver vital executive coaching services.

Our executive coaches have a singular objective: to enlarge your capability to excel in your most critical roles.


Executive Development

Executive leadership today requires lifelong learning. Our coaching accelerates the learning process for time-pressed executives, managers, and business owners.

Once engaged as your executive coach,

  • we customize the engagement to accelerate the outcome that you want to achieve
  • we respect your demanding schedule by keeping coaching sessions crisp, tight, and focused
  • we draw on proprietary LeaderPerfect® models that allow you to master new concepts quickly and thoroughly

As a result, we excel at rapid turnarounds of executive and managerial careers that are flagging.

Enhanced Skills

As executive coaches, we focus on skills that maximize your influence and impact. We emphasize:

People Skills. Your success turns on your proficiency at persuading, motivating, and inpiring people.

Leadership Skills. Your people are more eager to be led than to be managed.

Trust-Building Skills. Trust is paramount. It's the foundation on which you build influence.

Communication Skills. Your impact as a leader hinges on clear, concise, and compelling communication.

Team-Building Skills. Today, innovation is more commonly the product of team genius than individual genius.

Effective Onboarding

For executives, the first 90 days in a new position are decisive.

They define an executive's leadership reputation for months or years to come. It's vital to start off on the right foot.

We facilitate these pivotal transitions for both seasoned managers and those relatively new to management. And we've done so for 25 years

We also guide newly formed leadership teams through their initial 90 days.

These early weeks will determine the degree to which the team develops a healthy, collaborative culture and whether it has the resilience to rebound quickly in the face of setbacks or discouragement.

While Dr. Mike coaches online nationwide, he believes strongly that in-person executive coaching is notably more beneficial. All things being equal, it's his preference and recommendaton.
