What is Strategic Relationship Consulting about?
Long story short, my consultancy seeks to awaken the leader in you and to help you unlock your relationships to generate organizational harmony & wellbeing.
Logically, all this leads to efficiency and productivity to achieve results.
My consultancy is explained here below.
The issue is relationship-based
Most companies or their leaders contact me because they or their organization is facing a conflict —whatever it is— and they don't know how to deal with it. Or maybe they have an interesting challenge ahead.
These challenges can be related to their organizational culture, their working environment, their teams or manager's performance, their productive processes, or their results.
Technical problems: that is what you or your organization see. (is looking at) What I see are issues based on poorly developed relationships.
The conflict or challenge almost always involves relationships:
When adapting to a new position: "It is hard for me to generate adherence to my ideas, making my results limited."
Problems when transmitting objectives, ideas or tasks: "It is hard for me to have the team do what is necessary with proper execution."
Isolation among units or simply poor relationships: "It is a challenge for me to talk to my internal suppliers or my clients. We do not reach an agreement.”
Poor results in organizational climate surveys affecting the work environment: "My unit has scored below the benchmark in our yearly work environment survey."
Lack of innovation and creativity: "We are stuck, we see problems and solutions that are hard to implement".
The list goes on.
The solution is to wake up
You need to wake up by increasing your level of consciousness, and see what no one else sees, to develop a systemic perspective on the issues. That is where I start to help you.
At present, you are probably seeing and focusing on the conflict at hand: lack of results, poor work environment. The goal is to see why this is happening. Once you can see it, you can intervene.
How? By generating nourishing, frequent and constructive conversations that generate change. In other words, unblocking relationships.
This is the way that will lead you towards organizational harmony and wellbeing a goal longed for by many leaders within the organization.
What is organizational harmony and wellbeing and how can it be measured?
It is the group of corporate indicators based on your cultural values that represent your organization; these are daily practices carried out by your employees that make them loyal to the company and proud of belonging to it.
That is the road I can take with you.
I can help you see what you can’t today so as to generate changes and movement within you to improve your leadership skills.
Where can we see the results of a Strategic Relationship Consulting?
When people wake up to the way they are behaving, to the impact unblocked relationships have on their outcomes, to the constant increase of organizational wellbeing and the unsurmountable efficiency and productivity gained.
That is what needs to be done, but the question remains, what does this reflect on?
A cross-cutting leadership style with a more flexible approach, dealing with systemic aspects beyond only numbers.
Cross-cutting, multidimensional and diverse teams, whose efficiency and productivity can be observed in their outcomes.
Successful cross-departmental work relationships where the search for satisfaction wants to overcome goals already achieved that account for high levels of organizational climate.
Daily practices that represent the values of the organizational culture in the shape of pieces of behavior showcasing the reality as it is developing.
Pride of belonging and true association with the brand and its presence as an organization in the market.
You already know the "what", the important thing is the "how"
If you are looking for that kind of change of leadership style in your organization, you probably know the classic structure: diagnosis, data collection, proposal, implementation and evaluation. It’s a well-known formula!
I prefer to focus on how I execute my Strategic Relationship Consulting to establish my leadership model in travel mode.
First, I apply my OCS (Organizational Coaching for Sustainability) model
During my professional journey, I have developed a consulting model that helps leaders and the organization to have a systemic perspective.
This model is a new lens to look at the organization in three different layers: the leader, the people interacting, and the systems impacted by them.
A broad, conscious perspective secures the identification of a conflict for us.
I apply my skills
In my suitcase, I have a good set of tools and skills that I apply in each of my consulting projects:
I have a broad, organizational maturity
I am a linguist and an expert in communication and language
I am a senior ontological coach
I have a multicultural, diversity-oriented, inclusive approach
And I have incredible allies to generate outstanding results
It’s relevant to understand that through all these endeavors, I am not alone. And since this is so, I am able to resolve conflicts and face challenges at a big scale. Such as multinational companies’ mergers, or the opening of new markets.
Here are some of the companies that have trusted in my experience:

Allow me to share the impact that my approach to Strategic Relationships Consultancy generates: firstly, the purposeful support for leadership growth and secondly, the transformational generation of high-performance teams.
Team identity program
“The program was very practical and entertaining, managing to convey complex information by making the people come to their own deductions and learning processes. We highlight Claudia's energy and her proposal, which is different to the ones done in other programs. We are grateful that she kept an active participation of the whole team.”
Effective management program
“What we highlight the most was having worked as a team, being able to put into practice everything required with simple exercises. On top of that, we learned tools that will surely improve our performance. The best thing about the program was being exposed to such an array of competences for their immediate implementation. Also, the clarity and sequenced order of each stage of the learning journey.”
Program for Commitment based management
“The best thing was to share with my colleagues in situations beyond work, in a different environment, using new approaches. We generated integration instances and that encouraged learning. Everything has been very useful to us, and above all, applicable. Plus, we highlight Claudia's clarity in conveying the program’s contents.”
