Astute Insights and Ideas
You want astute insights and ideas to help you improve your current leadership condition. You can accomplish that in three ways with Karl Bimshas Consulting.
Fresh Perspective
Exceptional leaders regularly seek new perspectives. If your current way is no longer working, objectives will not be accomplished. Stacking unmet goals erodes trust, and fundamentally, trust is the only currency a worthwhile leader has.
Accountability
When you are sincere about achieving your goal, solving a problem, and developing your leadership, your passion for improvement will be greater than the fear of accountability.
Confidence and Support
You have become tentative and less effective. The underlying reason is you lack confidence or adequate external support. When self-confidence and support increase, so does the influence of your leadership.
Manage Better and Lead Well.

Your Decision.
You may choose to do nothing at all to improve your leadership capabilities. You won’t be alone. 82% of managers in North America do not have the requisite talent to excel in their current leadership role. We think that’s a problem, and are working to solve it with leaders who want to make a difference.
We respect your time. You cannot afford to be out of the office at half-day seminars on the off chance you stumble across a solution that might work for you. Each of our engagements is customized with the performance, learning, and or fulfillment results that are meaningful to you.
As a rule of thumb, successful people invest 3-5% of their salary into professional development. Not coincidentally, as they grow, high achievers increase their percentage. These include relevant books, focused workshops, courses, time with mentors, and other activities that build sustainable knowledge and skills. They expect a minimum return on investment of 3x. At Karl Bimshas Consulting, it is often closer to 10x.
