Larry Briggs is president and founder of V2A Consulting (previously Briggs
Consulting); a management consulting firm specializing in helping business
leaders initiate growth and manage change. During the last eighteen years of
practice he has personally coached and trained hundreds, including CEOs and
their management teams and various executive groups.
As a specialist in discovering “what works” in business Larry began
his research to discover the fundamental forces at work in organizations that
influence both human behavior and business success. In this research he
discovered the “Five Business Forces” and then developed a leadership
change methodology he has labeled Vision to Action, or V2A. In this change
model ten important elements that support leadership and change initiatives are
presented, the first of which is Inspiring Personal Vision. As Larry has
applied and developed V2A over the years, he has innovated a number of products
and processes that “Build Leaders for Life”. It is his philosophy
that leading organizations are build upon individual leaders within
organizations, and that leadership is both a talent and a skill that can be
developed.
In his role as an executive coach he works with leaders to discover their
strengths using 360 feedback instruments and Emotional Intelligence Assessments.
The latest research shows that EQ (the ability to work at a level of emotional
awareness with others) is more powerful than IQ, or specific product knowledge
in producing results in and through others. Now Vision to Action links to the
power of being emotionally aware and skilled to bring all the power offered by
EQ into the V2A leadership model.
Our focus is on developing leaders and leadership skills to compete in
today’s global marketplace where change has become the norm. This includes
improving communications, teamwork, work processes, and the ability to produce
desired results. Our specialty is helping organizations create their shared
vision and values, and to develop the means of making vision a reality.
