Case Studies
The case studies summarized on this page are based on actual Fitzgerald MSI executive coaching engagements. With over 75 engagements completed since leaving the business world as an executive officer of a large bank, Mike Fitzgerald became certified in the leading talent assessment and executive coaching solutions. Every engagement is different, and the personal development plans are customized to the individual, but the purpose of many fall into one or more of the following profiles.
The Unready Executive
A succession plan without gap analysis and assessments-based coaching is just a replacement plan.
The At-Risk High Performer
Never assume patience or loyalty. Your high performers are promised more than compensation from others. They’re offered growth and hope.
The “Company of Me” Rainmaker
Whether leading himself or others, a leader can produce more with humility, human-kindness and teamwork than with selfish ambition or vain conceit.
The Busy But Unproductive Manager
It makes little sense to be good at something you ought not be doing at all. Do things right and do the right things.
The “Don’t Try to Change Me” Leader
Self-awareness without action on that of which you are self-aware is harmful well beyond the individual leader.
