Your senior leaders are talking, your middle managers are translating. 
No one's sure they're saying the same thing.

You and 2,000+ leaders I've worked with closely know this challenge well. 

The problem I've identified over the past 8 years often isn't capability. It's that senior leaders and middle managers are speaking different languages.

That gap is where I work.

I help organizations:
→ Close the communication disconnect between senior leaders and the people executing their vision
→ Turn "great doers" into managers who actually lead instead of just doing harder work
→ Build a shared operating language so teams stop working past each other

Fifteen years ago, I was that struggling leader. An IC promoted for performance, handed a team, and given no formal training on how to actually lead them. 

Great at execution, drowning in leadership, too proud to ask for help.

Seven years ago, I founded The Venned Group to solve the problem no one was naming.

How we work:

S.P.A.R.K. Method™ → Diagnostic-first development that meets your people where they actually are
Targeted Workshops → Communication, collaboration, and trust-building across levels
Executive Partnership → Senior team alignment because the disconnect starts at the top

The best time to close the gap is before it costs you your best people.

Send me a DM and let's talk.
