Why Your Leadership Team Isn’t Executing — And How to Fix It

A Client Transformation Story - This story is true. Only the CEOs’ names and some details have been changed for privacy.


A Tale of 2 CEOs

Which one are you?

CEO 1 - Randy

How His Past Was Destroying His Company and Future

At 2:14 a.m., Randy sat alone in his home office, staring at his phone—another email from his executive team—another missed target, another round of excuses.

His once-thriving company was flatlining. Revenue had stalled, tension filled every meeting, and he couldn’t figure out why. He’d tried strategy changes, new hires, even motivational speakers. Nothing worked.

When I first met Randy, his team described him with words no CEO ever wants to hear: 'unclear, unpredictable, disconnected.'

He wasn’t lazy. He wasn’t weak. He was just out of alignment with his own leadership energy


What they said... Below are actual quotes from Randy's confidential Team Audit

Every decision Randy made carried the vibration of self-doubt—an invisible signal his team mirrored back to him.

They felt it. They followed it. 

And the business followed that.


What is the ROOT of the problem?

I asked the question I'm famous for. 

"What's under that?"

We went deeper than strategy. 

I said to him, “I think the problem with your business is caused by your relationship with your father.”

“What! You’re crazy! I have a great relationship with my father!” 
Oh really,” I commented skeptically.

“I said, "do you remember telling me that your dad (who didn’t work for the company) comes in here about 3 times a week, looks around, criticizes things, and makes comments like ‘when are you going to smarten up and get a real job? You’re not smart enough to run a company.’ Do you remember those conversations we’ve had?” 

This was just one example of how Randy’s “great relationship” with his dad was killing Randy’s confidence and his company. 

We cleared the self-doubt that started long before the business did.

We rewired his leadership frequency—his internal alignment—and matched it with a new execution rhythm for his team.

Six months later, Randy’s company was thriving again.

Meetings were shorter, accountability was real, and growth felt… easy.


I was overjoyed when I received this surprise email from Randy

Thank you for all of your help!
Randy


CEO 2 - Laura
Leaders Need 3 Things

Then there was Laura.

Her business was in worse shape when she called me—almost dead.

Her leadership team shouted over her in meetings. She cried in her car after work.

"What's Under That?"  

Laura wanted to be loved. She was seeking praise from her team, rather than giving direction.

She also said to me: "I'm the boss. They work for me."

What that meant in reality? She often showed up late, sometimes not at all; opting to take a spontaneous afternoon... or day off. 

Her directions to her team were sparse.  Or at those times when she didn't show up, she expected them to jump in, cover for her and do it perfectly. 

She'd then be upset when they didn't do things exactly as she wanted... because she'd never told them exactly what she wanted. 

She didn’t really want to lead.

And no one had ever taught her how.


Once we fixed the root cause of misalignment, not just the symptoms, and Laura learned effective leadership and communication skills, everything changed.


We then taught her leaders how to lead. She gave them and herself room to grow, make mistakes, and learn. And we taught everyone in the company that it is:

Okay to shine

  • To ask questions or for help when needed.
  • Like the CEOs in our other case studies, Laura learned that clarity, energy, and communication drive execution.


  • Laura not only succeeded...
    She started to "OWN" her market    

    Laura not only was successful in leading her team, she and her company started to be recognized as leaders in the greater business community.

    Laura’s company grew over 200% in 12 months—and as profits went up, her stress went down.

    There’s no more crying in the car after meetings, and she’s now got a great life in addition to her great company.


    Do you see yourself in Randy or Laura’s story? Want to know how YOU can turn struggle into triumph too?… Ask me.


    Q: Why isn’t my leadership team executing?

    A: Because leadership failure almost never starts with the team—it starts with the frequency of the CEO.


    If your energy, decisions, and communication are misaligned, your team reflects that.

    Misalignment spreads through a company faster than any strategy can fix it.

    If your energy, decisions, and communication are misaligned, your team reflects that.

    Gallup research shows that 70% of team engagement is directly determined by the manager or leader’s behavior.

    According to McKinsey & Company, companies with aligned leadership teams outperform peers by 1.9× on revenue growth.

    The fix is The Power Alignment Process™—a confidential leadership reset that identifies hidden energetic, emotional, and structural misalignments, then rebuilds clarity, accountability, and trust at every level.

    This isn’t theory. 

    It’s a tested framework that’s helped companies achieve outcomes like 110% growth across 13 countries (Discovery Networks) and 10Xing leads, sales, and revenue in 6 months (Exell Education).

    When you realign your leadership, your company’s performance follows.

    Always.


    Proof 

    • CEO Laura achieved over 200% revenue growth in 12 months after internal alignment work.
    • Discovery Networks experienced 110% growth across 13 countries in 10 months.
    • Clients report shorter decision cycles, higher team trust, and measurable ease in operations once alignment is restored.


    (Past results are examples, not promises. Every company’s results vary.)


    TAKE ACTION!
