The Strategy Intensive
The Strategy Intensive unleashes profound business/team results. These sessions are customized, never canned. Clients own their output, and the impact is immediate and sustainable.

What clients around the globe are saying about their results…
“One of my fondest takeaways is Wally’s approach to strategy. He facilitates strategy sessions that are reflective and very interactive, yet all about driving business results. Wally freely shared his tools and techniques with our HRBP team. I adopted and personalized his methodology and it remains one of my strategic differentiators, thanks!”

I created the STA Intensive for people just like you
I suspect you operate in a high-demand environment most of the time. On many days you’re pulled in a hundred directions and challenged to get strategic work done.
Trust me, I’ve experienced and relate to many of your workplace challenges. That’s why I created the Strategic Team Alignment Intensive … for high-achieving leaders like you.
My team and I have the chops to deliver the results your team needs for their development journey.
Notably…
I have more than 25 years of executive HR leadership experience.
I’ve successfully led teams of more than 50 employees across HR disciplines and geographies (Americas, EMEA, and APAC).
I’ve personally served as the senior HR Business Partner on multiple C suites, segments, and regional teams. I’ve worked in corporate HQ, regional sales & service offices, even unionized manufacturing plants.
I’ve operated as both an internal leader and external consultant (I have the scars and references to prove it).
I have access to a crack team of affiliates with whom I regularly partner.
You benefit from perspectives I’ve gained. I’ll freely share those lessons learned.
My ultimate goal is for you to rest easy knowing the strategies and processes you and your team create are in the best of hands.
