Evergreen Leadership Development

Growth For Every Season of Development

Knowing yourself will help you lead yourself which lays the foundation for better leading others. There’s no shortcut. The leadership development work we’ll do together will involve getting to know your strengths and limitations, your superpowers and kryptonite, and defining your unique leadership style.

Your Leadership Development Training Starts Here

I am your thought partner on your leadership development journey. Through our work, we will customize a leadership development program to fit your goals and visions. You may want to start with a workshop or retreat for your executive leadership team, a long-term growth plan for all levels of leaders in your organization, or anything in between. 

I am here to be your thought partner in growing the executive, mid-level, and emerging leaders in your organization. This naturally leads to a place where people want to work which translates into engaged, longer-term employees.

Experience the Benefits of Committing to Your Leadership Growth

The struggle can be real and I am here to help. If you are looking for guidance and solutions to develop the current leaders or emerging leaders in your organization, you’ve come to the right place. 

Our work includes self-reflection, assessments, and other proven tools to help you identify the strengths and weaknesses of your team, as well as how to improve and elevate each person to make a stronger, more efficient team. All of this is customized within your personal development plan for leadership.

I often work with leaders who:

  • Are new leaders

  • Are stepping up into higher levels of leadership

  • Are succession planning to prepare for retiring leaders

  • Have good intentions and yet know their leadership skills could be better

  • See silos in the workplace causing leaders from different departments to be disconnected 

If you are experiencing any of these things, you are not alone. I bring my experience working through these leadership challenges to your specific leadership training program, with the goal of cultivating better leadership from the top-down.

Ways We Build Your Customized Leadership Plan

Growth plans to fit your vision and goals.

Team Development Plan

During our work, we can include a team development plan to work with other members of your team or your team as a whole. I have found that team sessions increase cohesion between team members which leads to more productivity and better morale. Both of these lead to happier, more productive and engaged employees.

Leadership Coaching Sessions

As part of your personal development plan for leadership, you also have the option of individual leadership coaching sessions to deepen and expedite your growth. As a certified professional coach with decades of business experience, I am well-equipped to navigate the roadblocks many leaders encounter and help to create a path forward.

Ongoing Work

Your customized leadership development program may also include ongoing work with new leaders, promoted leaders, and teams to continue the momentum and culture of growth at your organization.

My Approach to Leadership Development and Coaching

First, you need to be the leader of YOU.

My goal is to help leaders like you increase your self-knowledge so you can lead others better. I’ve found the quickest, easiest, most effective way to do that is by using an appropriate assessment tool. 

The assessments I use measure:

  • Behavioral Style - how you act

  • Motivators - why you act

  • 25 Leadership skills

  • Emotional Intelligence skills

I worked in businesses for 35-years, including executive leadership roles for many of those years, before starting my leadership and team development business in 2017.

    In just the first few sessions with Jalene, our management team has become more connected and cohesive. The DISC assessment tool deepened our knowledge of ourselves as individuals and gave us a common framework to understand each other’s ideal work and communication styles. I saw immediate improvements in our teamwork. It’s powerful stuff!

    With her background in leadership development and coaching, Jalene empowers individuals and teams to achieve their full potential. I would highly recommend Jalene Case as she has a unique approach which fosters growth and transformation, leaving a lasting impact on those she interacts with.

FAQs

  • You know your leaders need support and yet, you don’t have the time and/or you’re not sure where to start.

How we do that will depend on your goals and visions. After learning those, I will customize a team development plan.
