Clients Reach New Heights with FireFly

A Few Clients that Found Value with FireFly

Success Stories

Moving in a New Direction

  • Issue

    CEO saw the need to move in a new strategic direction and needed senior

    leadership to understand the current reality and work collaboratively and creatively to

    reach agreement on how to execute on that strategy.

  • FireFly Action

    Brought the senior leadership of the organization together for a single meeting to hear and understand the same current reality the CEO sees. We then took the group through a visioning exercise to ensure strategies were consistent with their mission, force field analysis, strategic priorities, goals, measures and action planning.

  • Result

    The organization developed a new strategic direction and plan that everyone

    signed off on and enabled senior leadership to present to their teams to in a consistent manner.

Creating Team Accountability

  • Issue

    Leader trying to create team accountability instead drove team members away from supporting each other. The leader knows they need to work together differently than before, yet he was so used to driving individual accountability that it was hard to get them to want to work together.

  • FireFly Action

    We interviewed each team member individually and were able to give leader anonymous, direct feedback on how he was acting as a barrier to the very thing he wanted to create. We worked with individual team members to help them better appreciate how each person contributed to the effort, and redesigned the staff meeting.

  • Result

    Tough issues now can be raised safely, and members of the team have joined together to address the difficult problems.

Members of the Team Not Gelling

  • Issue

    Some team members were not gelling with the team, causing problems with effective collaboration on projects.

  • FireFly Action

    We took them through a "day in the life" exercise. This included HBDI analysis to build trust and appreciation for the way that others on the team thought and introduce the concept that diversity of thinking styles is required for greater innovation, and evaluating how they act under pressure.

  • Result

    Team members learned how they affect each other, what their individual strengths are, and how the differences between them result in a stronger team. They are more creative in their problem solving and more productive in implementing solutions.
