The (Pre)Collaboration Process

Leverage Relationships For Success

Missing deadlines? Feeling stuck in your career? Struggling to connect with key partners? All of these challenges have one thing in common: business relationships.

When talented teams fail to secure stakeholder engagement, productivity stalls, costs rise, and credibility suffers — even when the strategy is sound. Without strong stakeholder relationships, execution breaks down, and business impact is compromised.

When employees want to advance their careers but feel stuck at their current level, despite high performance and great reviews, they are most likely lacking key business relationships. Without authentic, strategic relationships, employees lack visibility, and their desired role seems perpetually out of reach.

When professionals are disconnected from their partners in other functions, they often struggle with lack of alignment, low credibility, and challenges with difficult conversations. Without strong relationships with their counterparts, they face difficulty collaborating and moving work forward.

I work with professionals to close these gaps.

Stronger business relationship-building requires more than good intentions - it requires scalable behavior change. My simple five-step (Pre)Collaboration© method builds the repeatable skills needed to drive that change, resulting in increased trust, greater visibility, on-time goals, and a culture aligned with long-term performance.

High-performing teams and fulfilled employees are critical drivers of operational agility, retention, and profitability - all critical components of an organizations’ competitive advantage in a time when every advantage is important.
