Success shouldn't be a matter of chance, but of choice!

You're stuck at a crossroads. Previous solutions have resulted in minimal success. When what you really want are solutions for you, your team, and your company that achieve extraordinary success.

There is hope!  You could be looking at the solution right now, and it’s just a click away.

 

Finding the right path to success, like any problem, requires you to identify the right goals, align the right team in the right roles, partner with the right people, and utilize the right skills and mindset. 

 

It can feel like a daunting, long & costly journey when you need things done now.  Ready to try something different?  Then stay here for more than 30 seconds. In short – Put that learning mindset to work and check us out.

 

Because something different is what we offer. We do not separate leadership, at any level, from strategy.  We are a pathfinder and guide dedicated to your success, not ours.  Our success happens when yours does.

Find your path now

When you're not getting the results you want from your development efforts, it's time to incorporate Strategic Leadership vertically within your organization

Just like the business side of strategy, Leadership strategy is multi-faceted.  It involves every person, personal buy-in, the right mindset, tools & skills, knowledge, and most importantly, wisdom.  The wisdom to establish multiple goals for every situation, moving forward as you successfully navigate daily problems.  The wisdom on how to empower, how to engage, how and when to challenge and innovate, using old and new tools in different ways to find solutions to today’s complex problems.  

 

We partner with you to develop the path forward to help you achieve your goals, introducing and solidifying learning every step of the way.      

know your destination

Follow a proven plan.

Our proprietary Leadership Success Formula© grows and aligns Personal Leadership, People Leadership, and Performance Leadership throughout your organization.  Leadership Success then becomes the foundation of our Business Growth Formula©, creating the critical tie-in to your business strategy.  Not understanding this critical tie-in is why the disconnect between low & mid-level leaders and teams is so costly to business strategy.

 

We can help you navigate safely to higher performance and results by asking the right questions, taking the right actions, identifying the right measurements, and leveraging the right people.

  • Unleash your and your team’s potential
  • Feel confident in your path forward
  • Respond, don’t react, to changing internal and external pressures
  • Achieve the ROI you’ve been looking for
  • Achieve business alignment
  • Love your role, unleash your potential, feel engaged, and have fun, knowing you’ve got this!

An Experienced Pathfinder
who goes the extra mile

A Leadership & strategy Partner and Coach you can trust

I can help.

Companies and leaders know the solutions they bring their clients and when and why they are the best solution.  They don’t expect their clients to go it alone.  

 

Neither should you!  When your success is costing you more than it should, when team engagement, retention, failed DEI issues, and strategy alignment are costing you upwards of 34% of each employee’s salary – which it does, btw – just ask Gallup, when you need an unbiased approach to help craft the solution you need, not what you assume you need – that’s when you need a Pathfinder.

Cheryle Hays, Pathfinder

My purpose is to unleash the leadership potential in others, transforming organizations at the intersection of leadership, strategy, culture, and engagement.  

I am a best-selling author, executive coach, speaker, culture strategist, and facilitative leader, a volunteer in our local entrepreneurial start-up eco-system, mom, wife, and lover of fine wine and dark chocolate.  I am an INTJ and a Pathfinder.  I listen.  I explore.  I solve.  I connect.  I learn.  I share.  

As an INTJ strategist and Pathfinder, I believe the essence of creativity is the ability to apply existing knowledge and insight to a situation never seen before.   As David Epstein, “Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World” so clearly states, “…the most successful problem solvers spend mental energy figuring out what type of problem they are facing before matching a strategy to it, rather than jumping in with memorized procedures”.  My range of experience comes from working with micro start-up firms thru multi-national corporations, from thousands of employees to only a handful, from industry leaders to those on their way up. This range of experience enables me to see connections and paths others do not. 

I believe that thriving during constant change brings a competitive advantage in today’s complex environment.  So does unleashing true diversity – the diversity of who we are, not just what we are.  I believe we are all leaders, even if only over ourselves, and until we unleash Personal Leadership, we can only be minimally successful as both a follower and a leader of others.  

Why would I make a good business partner for you?  I’m nice, kind of funny, and know my models and frameworks work, I’ve seen them in action.  I measure my success by my clients – after all, that’s my purpose, to help make others successful, not by telling, but through In-Powering others!

I incorporate my MBA education with the knowledge, skills, and resources gained in over 25 years of leadership and business development, always seeking to learn, to do, to become, to help -more.
