Individual and Organizational Leadership Development Consulting
Better Leaders = Stronger Organizations
Unsurprisingly, individual and organizational growth and/or success looks different for each client, so Rachelle offers customized consulting services beyond leadership coaching to encourage strong leadership at an organizational level.
What We Offer
The Joint Commission Consulting – Survey-Readiness Program The On-going Survey Readiness program was developed from Rachelle’s extensive first-hand regulatory and survey experience. Clients lovingly refer to her as the “survey-whisperer”. This unique 4-step methodology prepares organizations at every level for tri-annual surveys, and more importantly, it teaches organizations how to carry the methodology forward, well after Rachelle’s departure. Hospitals utilizing this methodology can proudly open the doors to surveyors, at any time, with the knowledge they are providing the best care possible, exceeding standards of care. Hospitals can expect:
Successful tri-annual surveys with fewer findings than the national average
Organization-wide knowledge and engagement in ongoing survey readiness
Coaching and mentoring for Regulatory Officers
Strategic Planning – Despite costly and elaborate strategic planning processes, half of strategic plans fail. Why? Because the plan never makes it past the doors of the C-suite to those responsible for executing the plan and achieving the goals. Our process doesn’t stop at the board room—in fact, that’s just the beginning. We partner with you to identify what matters most to the team, organization and patients, then we work together to create a clear road map for success from the C-suite to the front line.
Employee Engagement Program – Gain insight into the health of your organization through employee engagement surveys designed to create meaningful employee engagement and real change. The results of the survey help us identify opportunities rather than focusing on negatives or things out of our control. This program works directly with employees—encouraging them to be more engaged, a part of the solution and a catalyst for change.
New leaders promoted from clinical roles to leadership, e.g. bedside nurse to manager or physician to CMO, etc.
Leaders transitioning to a higher level of responsibility e.g. VP to CNO, COO to CEO, etc.
Customized Leadership Assessments
Rachelle Babin offers leadership assessments for individuals and teams who are looking for insights and guidance regarding their own strengths, weaknesses and opportunities for change.
Interview-Based 360 Review We all have blind spots and areas of leadership we can improve upon. (Yes, even you). One of the most effective ways to gain an understanding of these blind spots is through a 360-degree review, which offers benefits traditional computer-based reviews lack. Rachelle has developed a unique 360-degree review that allows her to assess an individual or team’s performance and identify opportunities for improvement using an interview-based approach. Rachelle has a true appreciation of what it’s like to be on the receiving end of a 360-degree review. She understands that it can leave one feeling exposed and vulnerable, so she approaches the work with a high level of sensitivity, compassion and confidentiality. This review is a stand-alone process not all clients will go through.
Change is tough, but it doesn't have to be! Rachelle offers Accelerated On-Boarding Programs which combine coaching and mentoring to facilitate on-boarding and ease stressful transitions for new hires and rising leaders.
These programs typically last 3–6 months and focus on new leaders, as well as leaders transitioning to a higher level of responsibility. And because Rachelle understands that one size does not fit all, each engagement is built according to the unique needs of the individual and the goals of the organization. The components of the leadership development consulting program include:
On-site collaboration days, whereby Rachelle partners with the client throughout their workday to identify strengths, challenges and gaps
Co-creation of an individualized leadership development plan, utilizing solutions-focused executive coaching and mentoring
Just-in-time coaching and mentoring between collaboration days and coaching sessions (e-mail, phone, text) to support ongoing actions and development
