Executive Team Dialogue

Katharine McLennan has been facilitating for executive teams throughout Australia at all levels from the CEO team downwards for over 15 years.  Her work with these teams covers strategic focus, interpersonal understanding, team mission development, innovative thinking, team roles and accountability coaching, meeting processes, and decision making processes.  

In all of these areas, she teaches teams the art of dialogue, whose Greek etymology comes from "creating meaning through words."  She has come to understand the power of word and how destructive it can be used in the business every day context and how powerful it can be used when people begin to understand the poisons and antidotes to authentic dialogue.  

She particularly believes in team development "in situ," which is the work she does with teams working on the business in the office, which is no better time to really work to improve team dynamics.  

Her executive clients have included CEO or next level teams from Macquarie Bank, Qantas, Minter Ellison, Canon, UBS, ING, AGL, Integral Energy, Westpac, Ergon Energy, Anglo Coal Australia , Suncorp, Ernst & Young, AMP, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Sydney Lord Mayor team, Jones Lang Lasalle and National Australia Bank. 

The most exciting dialogue week she has coming up is open to all senior Australian Executives, in which she is working with the Mettle Group and three Stanford Business School leadership professors to deliver a week-long executive leadership seminar in the Blue Mountains: 14-20 September 2008.  Click here for more information.
