Strategic Planning and Management System, Executive Coaching, Executive Teambuilding |
It has been our privilege to support the Executive Director and the Office of the CFO and key stakeholders in developing a new approach to Strategic Planning that enabled NEA to develop strategies and plans at every level to support the new core values, mission and vision of the Association. This focused, results based process served as a major change intervention in heralding the beginning of a higher performance, results based organization.
As part of this work we facilitated a process for the Executive Team to clarify the strategic goals and provided training for all executive staff in how to develop results based tactics and activities. In addition we assisted in the development of a Strategy Map, scorecard and operational review process.
Other work that we have done at NEA is to provide Executive Coaching, Executive Teambuilding and support for culture change. Our Strategic Start® program has supported newly hired or promoted executives successfully “jump start” thriving from the first day, supporting productivity and continuity.

Strategic Planning, Culture Change, Executive Teambuilding |
Since 2004, Connie Meyer, President of Performance Partners, has been providing support to the Office of the CFO- improving strategic focus and helping to create a healthy, thriving culture.
In addition Connie is the executive coach for more than 20 NASA executives.
“I have known Connie Meyer for four years. In June 2004, Connie participated with me in boldly kicking off a complete cultural assessment and change process to create a paradigm shift in the Office of the CFO. With Connie’s assistance, my organization developed a collective vision for a high performing team and a shared understanding of what is working well; and, we targeted opportunities for improvement. The CFO leadership team established very clear strategic goals for the organization and key strategies to achieve those goals, with action plans that were implemented annually. It was exciting to see the changes that occurred in the organization as the process through which Connie guided us unfolded. The result was a much improved, high performing leadership team, dedicated to success through a commitment to the organization’s core values and goals and, most importantly, to building and sustaining effective working relationships. I was so pleased with the work that Connie and I did together with the CFO leadership team, that I have maintained my relationship with Connie as my Executive Coach, even as I have moved on to a new position.”

Midwest Airlines has always been renowned for providing “the best care in the air”. To support them in making sure their culture and structure was aligned to providing extraordinary customer service and safety, we supported them in engaging employees, customers and key stakeholders in developing a Best Care Cultural vision.
In addition we also supported a major restructuring of the operations area to streamline the process. Engaging the people closest to the work in identifying the solutions accelerated the process and resulted in increased efficiencies and productivity.
“ The Performance Partners team quickly developed insights into the organization and its needs and developed actions that helped the organization move forward.”
Timothy Hoeksema, CEO and President, Midwest Airlines.
