Executive Influence Program
You were promoted for what you know.
The role now requires something different.
The expertise that built your reputation isn't the same skill set that expands your influence. That gap is navigable.
What Happens in Each Phase
SEE You build a data-grounded picture of how you actually lead, communicate, and influence. Not how you intend to. How you do.
CONNECT The focus shifts to trust, communication under pressure, and navigating organizational politics. Every capability is practiced with real stakeholders on real challenges.
MOBILIZE You apply everything to live organizational initiatives. Coalition building. Resistance navigation. Strategic positioning. This is where the shift becomes visible to the people around you.
SUSTAIN (Premier only) The capabilities become permanent. You build organizational systems, develop others, and create influence infrastructure that outlasts the engagement.
Accelerator | 12 Weeks This is for you if you're facing a specific, time-sensitive influence challenge and want a structured approach to address it. Individual or cohort format. Focused on 2-3 RI dimensions.
Core | 6 Months This is for you if you're ready for the full expert-to-multiplier shift. Physician executives navigating the transition from clinical credibility to organizational influence. Senior leaders whose expertise is respected but hasn't translated into enterprise impact. Complete assessment suite including 360-degree feedback. All five RI dimensions. Triad sessions with your organizational sponsor.
Premier | 12 Months This is for you if you want to make the shift permanent. Everything in Core, plus the SUSTAIN phase, three RI assessments across the engagement, and influence infrastructure that lasts beyond the program
"The coaching was harder than I expected. Not the time commitment. The honesty. Gary doesn't let you stay comfortable. Six months later, I'm not sure I can point to one big thing that changed. It's more like a lot of small things that added up."
Medical Director, Academic Medical Center
This isn't coaching built on hunches. Four evidence-based assessments give you an objective, data-informed view of your leadership: personality and character strengths, behavioral deployment under pressure, relational intelligence across all five dimensions, and stakeholder perception through 360-degree feedback. Sequenced deliberately. Internal patterns first. External perception second. Synthesis third. What was invisible becomes navigable.
THE COMMITMENT GUARANTEE
Measurable progress within 90 days or the program extends at no additional cost until it's evident.*

FAQs
Who is this program for?
The Amplifi Executive Influence Program is designed for C-suite and senior executives who are high performing but finding their organizational influence has plateaued. This includes COOs, VPs, Senior Directors, and functional leaders with significant scope who need to expand their influence beyond their expertise. You're a good fit if you're not being included in strategic decisions at the level you expected, your ideas aren't gaining traction despite their merit, or you're ready to develop the relational intelligence that creates sustained organizational impact. This program is for executives committed to capability development, not crisis intervention.
How long is the program?
The Amplifi Executive Influence Program is designed as a 6-month intensive experience with unlimited coaching sessions. This timeframe allows you to develop all five dimensions of relational intelligence while applying new capabilities to real organizational situations. The Premier Program extends the engagement to 12 months, adding a SUSTAIN phase focused on embedding capabilities, building lasting influence infrastructure, and developing others as relational leaders. A 12-week Accelerator is also available for leaders facing a specific, time-sensitive influence challenge, available as an individual or cohort engagement.
Is this therapy or personality coaching?
No. This is executive coaching focused on organizational influence, stakeholder dynamics, and strategic positioning. We work on developing specific capabilities - Relational Awareness, Trust Architecture, Connective Communication, Collaborative Power, and Systemic Influence - that determine whether expertise translates into organizational impact. While our conversations are candid and reflective, they're oriented toward strategic action, measurable shifts in stakeholder relationships, and organizational outcomes. This is capability development for sustained executive effectiveness.
What kind of results can I expect?
Executives who complete the program typically experience being included in strategic conversations earlier in the process, key stakeholders actively seeking their input and partnership, ideas gaining traction with less resistance or extended socialization, stronger cross-functional coalitions and more effective influence without authority, and clearer organizational positioning for expanded scope or next-level roles. The goal is expanding your organizational influence so your technical capabilities create the enterprise impact they should.
How much time does this require?
The program is designed for busy executives. We meet weekly or biweekly, and each session is 50 minutes. Between sessions, you apply the work to your actual calendar - the stakeholder meetings and strategic initiatives you're already navigating. Most executives invest 60-90 minutes weekly in focused development work. The real practice happens in your existing work, making it more strategically effective rather than adding to your workload.
What if I'm not sure this is right for me?
That's exactly what the Strategy Session is for. It's a structured conversation to explore your current positioning, identify where your influence could expand, and determine whether the Amplifi Executive Influence Program is the right fit for your goals. There's no obligation to continue. You'll leave with clarity on your situation and at least one concrete next step, whether we work together or not.
Is this relevant for physician executives?
Yes. Physician leaders often face a specific version of this challenge: clinical credibility is unquestioned, but organizational influence lags behind. You're consulted on clinical matters but not included in strategic decisions. Your recommendations are respected but don't gain traction. The transition from expert clinician to organizational leader requires relational capabilities that medical training never addressed. The Executive Influence Program is built for exactly this shift.
