An Overview of K. Taylor & Associates
Simply put, we help leaders and the organizations they lead learn to thrive in a state of flux. Today’s environment, in business, education, service and political, is buffeted by an unprecedented velocity of change on all fronts. And the only thing likely to change is that the pace of change will get faster and even more unrelenting. Leading and working in today’s world requires a different skill set – of everyone.
Our change and leadership development process is based on our work over the past ten years with hundreds of leaders and many companies, of various sizes and in broad ranging industries. We formed in 2004 with a vision of helping organizations successfully implement change by enabling the people associated with the change (leaders and employees) to:
- Understand what was happening, when it was happening and why it was important (Two Way Communication)
- Learn the skills they needed to make the change successfully (Training)
- Become involved and help change the change (Engagement)
- Plan and prepare their areas for the change (Transition)
At our core is a deep understanding of leadership, change and organizations. We combine those three areas of expertise to create custom solutions for your company that get maximum results. While we have core processes and tools – the way we deploy solutions is designed for each client.
There are some constants at K. Taylor & Associates. They include:
- A client first approach (focusing on the right solution, not the most billable hours)
- A team with high integrity and deep expertise (no junior consultants learning at your expense)
- A focus on results (and on simple, sustainable ways to achieve them)
- A collaborative, relationship based partnership with clients (we are in this together)
- An ever present desire to get better (focus on continuous improvement and learning from each other)
K. Taylor & Associates, through our Evergreen Leadership Process, helps leaders and those in your organizations gain the needed skills and necessary mindset to be successful in turbulent times. We do that through learning programs, coaching, and consulting with a carefully selected group of associates who know how to get results in today’s business environment. Our learning solutions are designed for impact – our focus is on teaching the right skills to the right people in the right way so that the skills are transferred, used and make a difference in getting the results you want.
“As part of our ongoing efforts to train and develop our staff we hired Kris Taylor to help us with two key projects. One project involved the assessment of the skills level of our factory process leaders. The other project involved helping our senior management staff develop more effective communication, both among ourselves and with those we lead.
