Kirkos delivers specific, targeted advisory services to quickly impact executive performance and maximize executive capital.
Our practice focuses on improving a leader’s (or a leadership team’s) ability to drive change and influence others – aligning attitudes and behaviors to strategy and execution. Our process guarantees change that is fast… and lasting.
Often the people you count on are a bit short on skills, experience, attitude – or just awareness. How long will it take to get them from here to there? Almost every CEO will tell you that their greatest strategic challenge in the coming years is to secure, develop, and retain the talent necessary to compete in times of total change.
Kirkos is passionate about getting you “there”…before you know it.
Do you have key leaders in key positions with key shortcomings? Our approach is a bit different… but our philosophy and processes enable us to get client executives down the road much faster and much further than you imagine possible. Are you ready?
The universe is waiting.

A Leadership Circle is a HIGHLY-FOCUSED, ACTION-ORIENTED group where leaders share coaching, support and accountability to get things done. Every Leadership Circle complements existing organizational goals, vision, mission, and values.
If you Google "Why Mergers & Acquisitions Fail," you’ll read A LOT about culture. Why not synthesize and align culture BEFORE the dotted line is signed? We’ll show you how to get there…..FAST!
Even high-performing teams can find themselves facing a crisis in the market place… or within the organization. Kirkos quickly circles the wagons and provides the CLARITY, HONESTY, CREATIVITY and FOCUS to move forward with SPEED and alignment.
The GOAL of every Kirkos engagement is to EMPOWER our client’s to grow their own LEADERSHIP CAPITAL. We want to help you build the machine…and then we hand the keys over to YOU.
What if you could bring all of your High-Potential future leaders together, enable them to COACH and INSPIRE each other, and then unleash them on some of your most challenging problems? What would that do for your CULTURE… and RESULTS?

With every engagement, Kirkos strives to compress 3-5 years of leadership development/growth into only one calendar year. To achieve such an audacious vision, you’d have to combine a lot of complexity with a great deal of simplicity… elegantly. Relying on a few, simple, proprietary processes, (and a lot of dedication from everyone involved), Kirkos’ Leadership Circles provide the learning platform for each leader to grow fast… and grow deep. Every Circle member will grow in leadership capacity, self-awareness, conflict & dialogue skills, strategic vision & alignment, business acumen, leveraging networks, and in emotional intelligence.
INDIVIDUAL ASSESSMENT
Our workflow begins with the completion and review of a personalized assessment – the first data point in every Circle.
TEAM ASSESSMENT
The Team Assessment is more than just an aggregate of the parts – it's information and insight into how every circle can grow…and grow fast.
MAP THE JOURNEY
In this step, the Circle is drawn and the Vision is set. Focused alignment insures engagement and speed.
WALK THE WALK
Monthly half-day meetings stretch Circle members’ skills, keep them on the path (accountability), and grow self-awareness and leadership capacity.
ACHIEVE & CELEBRATE
We stop and celebrate all victories along the way.
LAUNCH THE LEADERS
Every Leadership Circle ends with the launching of enlightened leaders charged with taking new learning and insight deeper into the organization. From there, it is their job to draw and guide new Circles.
Because each Kirkos engagement is co-created by all those invested in each leaders' success, "our results" is our favorite topic. Our commitment to the leaders we advise transcends our business aspirations and connects deeplywith the transformation and achievement goals of our clients. Our results include:
Achievement of the identified alignment goals.
Measurable increase in executive capital.
Measurable advancement in executive acumen and presence.
Greater capacity and capabilities dealing with change and ambiguity.
Growth as a leader – evidenced by a greater degree of self-awareness, authenticity, and influence skills
Our Results are guaranteed – our skin (our fee) is in the game.
