Welcome to “Beyond the Jargon,” a blog by Calibra. Over the years we have provided coaching, training, and consulting to thousands of leaders and managers at all levels in organizations—senior level executives, mid-level managers, and frontline supervisors. We have learned as much from them as they have hopefully learned from us. What many have told us is, “this stuff should be so simple” (meaning the concept of leadership; providing vision and clear direction; the basic principles of communication; giving candid feedback; and, coaching openly and honestly). Then, they add, “but, it’s not easy!”
Our hope with this blog is to help make it easier. We want to move beyond the jargon and create an interactive forum to continue to grow and learn together. We will offer our insight and observation; we hope to better connect with our clients and colleagues by inviting dialogue and conversation; and, we’ll share our experience in leadership development, coaching, and talent management in order to bring you the very best in leadership development resources.
We invite you to participate in the conversation. Watch for our “What We Are Reading” post due out at the beginning of each month. Share your thoughts and insight. We welcome the opportunity to learn together.
