WHAT WE DO

Inspiring enterprise evolution

through the Art of Alignment

The Art of Alignment serves as our organizing principle, recognizing that across all industries an employee’s highest potential and impact on a company can only be reached when they are aligned with the business strategically, functionally and culturally. This approach inspires all of our solution areas, including innovative methodologies such as Contextual Coaching, which ties organizational culture to individual engagements; our Talent Development initiatives that implement systemic and holistic approaches to aligning talent with business outcomes; Career Transition and Management programs to help employees navigate either the job market or opportunities within their organizations; and ENCORE, which supports conversations for transitioning and retiring executives exploring new opportunities as they step out of corporate roles. Partners International clients benefit from continued enhancement of a suite of solutions designed to assure the most current, effective approach to increasing employee engagement, development and transition.

A Few Words From Our Clients:

Career Transition

I’d like to take this opportunity to heap praise on Partners International for helping me get back on my feet after I left my previous organization. I was a hot mess on that first call, to put it bluntly – scared, depressed, and incoherent. I hadn’t conducted a job search in about 20 years and, to make matters more challenging, I felt like I might need to veer off of my chosen career path. Looking back, I find it almost hard to fathom how far, and how fast, I travelled under my coach’s guidance. In short, color me deeply impressed, and eternally grateful for an experience that, in the truest sense of the term, was transformative.

Executive Coaching

Partners International has always come through for me. When I've needed to find just the right executive coach to help address a tricky problem, or needed consulting services, Partners has delivered. The key is the individual team members - all top notch and very client-focused. They make great efforts to understand the business and the people involved in designing and delivering solutions. I'm very pleased with the service that Partners offers - effective, well tailored to the individual, comprehensive, and delivered with care.

Partners International executive coaches, career counselors, and subject matter expert facilitators went the extra mile to understand the context of our business and make sure everything we're doing to develop our leaders is aligned with our global business strategy. Partners International coaches and facilitators are at the same time caring, professional, and organizationally focused. They're helping us to become an employer of choice. I am thrilled with my Partners International relationship and look forward to working with them well into in the future.
