CLSWEST(Cognitive Leadership Strategies West) is a unique leadership development company focusing on increasing the profitability and productivity of your organization through innovative, customized leadership training and development strategies. To achieve this aim, CLSWEST Associates target specific leadership, management and organizational culture barriers to effective performance through customized assessments, team training, change strategies, workshops and seminars.

Through our cognitive leadership strategies, we identify multiple points of leverage in your organization where senior managers, teams and employees alike can increase productivity by striving to change individual, team and organizational behaviours. In some cases this requires assessing cognitive leadership styles, performance of teams, the ability of senior staff to coach and mentor others, morale and organizational culture. In other instances, members of our international faculty work with your senior management to identify core and job specific competencies, requisite knowledge and skills, the need for seminars and workshops, or to establish and maintain coaching and mentoring programs.

Some CLSWEST interventions require one or more of our Associates to be embedded in your organization as part of an action research project or to job shadow, coach and mentor senior Managers and Executives in their leadership or management styles. Other interventions take the form of organization wide customized leadership seminars and training workshops. No matter what approach your management team chooses, we use real data from real examples of problems and successes occurring within your organization. The net result is a trained and motivated workforce thinking and behaving in ways that improve their productivity and your profitability in the pursuit of a common vision.
