ARE YOU READY
TO BE A CEO?
ARE YOU THINKING:
- I’m already successful, I will keep being successful.
- I’m smart and I can figure it out
- I’ll know what to do when the right lightbulb goes off
- I’m strong, I don’t need help
- I’m self-aware and know when and how to change behaviors
NEW TOOLS, NEW BELIEFS, NEW BEHAVIORS.
Growth Brings Unique Challenges for Everyone
IF YOU ARE SMART, STRONG, SELFAWARE, AND CAPABLE, WHY
HAVE YOU NOT ALREADY ACHIEVED YOUR GOAL?
WHY DO WE DO ASSESSMENTS?
I have a comprehensive approach to guide you on your journey to the CEO spot.
Today, we NEED leaders like you.
Our organizations are challenged by economic uncertainty and competitive pressures. We need someone like you, who wants to stretch, grow, and work to your full potential.
I will be your guide on this journey. The journey begins with Assessments—you need a realistic picture of your strengths and areas requiring further development.
They provide a measure of your current abilities. Assessments enable you to laser focus on what’s important for your progress. There is no correct score or perfect personality type.
ASSESSMENTS ENABLE YOU TO:
Be time-efficient by focusing on what YOU need
Know how to build your influence from your position of strength
Discover where you have gaps in the critical behaviors sought by companies looking to fill the CEO position.
Have you already been assessed to death? You may be like one person I worked with who came to our first meeting with a two-foot file of all his assessments! Unfortunately, no one had taken the time to show him what they meant in relation to each of the other assessments. He had taken assessments, but he didn’t know how to use them to identify behaviors he needed to shift to get the promotion he wanted.
Assessments provide a composite picture of who you are. They will provide focus and direction for your journey to the CEO position.
- Assess your current situation.
- Discover where you are on your journey.
- Identify the gaps that need to be addressed for you to become a CEO.
- We want to eliminate,
- We want to keep,
- Identify new mindset and behaviors critical for completing the journey
- Identify your next steps—the steps that are critical for you to achieve your goal.
I PROMISE, YOU WILL USE THE ASSESSMENTS
I WILL INSTRUCT AND GUIDE YOU…
To arrive at your desired destination, you must actively choose to do so.
Success is always a choice.
Don’t get me wrong –you are embarking on a journey that will challenge and exhilarate you.
It is not for the faint of heart.
If the journey was easy, everyone would be CEO, but they are not.
THE QUESTION IS
- Are you willing?
- Is this the right time?
- Are you ready to make the investment required to make progress toward your goal?
Growth….Success….CEO….
These are matters ONLY for those who ACTIVELY Work toward it!
I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE GREAT LEADERS. THEY ARE:
They simply want to DO more
They want to BE more
They want to CONTRIBUTE more
They want to LEAVE A LEGACY.
They know they were created for a bigger purpose.
They have a passion that “burns” within them.
They care about people, their communities, and the larger global community.
They want more and seek the help they need that removes the clutter, re-focuses their energy, and takes them to the finish line.
If I could relieve the overwhelm, uncertainty, stress you feel, you would want that, wouldn’t it? Good! Then your first step is to schedule an assessment appointment.
Some of you may want to begin more slowly…

COACHING
No athlete would consider entering a major competition without having a coach. Yet, in career development, we often try to do it alone. Indeed, there are athletes who have defied all odds and won their game doing it alone. More often, they do not. If successful athletes need coaches, how can we think it is different for us who want to excel as leaders?

Training is the cornerstone of any successful leadership team… but coaching is where the “magic” happens.

What would it be worth to you to know that you’re tapping into the cutting-edge skills that only the most successful, respected leaders in the world are using? And what would it be worth to you to know that you’re not only growing your career and helping your organization reach its goals today…
IF YOU ARE WILLING AT THIS TIME TO MAKE THE INVESTMENT REQUIRED,
I am happy to become your guide.
ACTION-TAKERS GET THE PRIZE AT THE FINISH LINE
Some of you will look at this opportunity and be tempted to think you can do it on your own. You will skip this now. You will see what progress you will make on your own and if need be, you will return and decide later…someday…just not now.
You can.
But tell me, how many successful people you know did it on their own?
Most successful people engage a trusted advisor or two who will carefully assess, re-assess, plan, focus, evaluate, re-assess, re-align, and consistently hold them accountable for their actions.
There are few exceptions.
If I could show you an ATTRACTIVE way in which you could realize your goal as a leader, become the CEO you want to become, you would at least want to LOOK at it , wouldn’t you?
Of course!
If this LOOKS GOOD to you, go ahead, take the rst step and SCHEDULE YOUR ASSESSMENT NOW WITH LOIS!
TESTIMONIALS
Working with Lois is a joy. She’s just incredible; that is, she is encouraging, positive, and friendly. Most important, you get a big project done, you have a lot of fun doing it, and credit is shared with everybody. This creates a great deal of satisfaction. One of the things I discovered, while working with Lois, was her incredible patience and calmness in all situations. She just has a knowing that it’s all going to work out well. Because of Lois’ understanding of the Japanese culture, work environment, and her ability to translate, we were able to build relationships and business partnerships.
For somebody thinking about working with Lois, I would say, you are incredibly lucky. She has a big heart, has the ability to get things done, and you’ll have a lot of fun doing it. You’re going to be so lucky to work with Lois.
Lois has been an incredible coach. For her vast experience in business as well as per accomplished life as a mother and grandmother have made her a great fit for helping me along in my journey. She has such great wisdom, knowledge, and care for me that no matter what I’m going through what challenges arise she always has something very helpful to contribute that helps me stay the course and be great as a mom and employee.
She has helped me be a better wife, draw closer to God, change my attitude about his situation, and given me great parenting advice for a child with special needs. Through hard times spent with me and the work that she’s done with me, she has improved not only myself but my family, my company, and all of the people I live my life around.
Working with Lois, there was no real challenge. She provided the insight and leadership we needed to be successful. Lois brought collboration to out work that was seamless.
What’s it like working with Lois? Pleasant, very pleasant. Lois has incredible leadership skills, without being forceful or overbearing, she just makes everybody feel like they’re part of the party, and so they want to eagerly participate in whatever project that you’re working on.
Three words I would use to describe Lois Sonstegard are: talented, a leader, ver gracious. After Lois left our organization, there was a big hole. You could really tell something was missing, and it was Lois. We were just never able to replace Lois, maybe because she’s not replaceable. She is that good, and provides talented leadership that makes you thrive.
I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to have Lois as a coach! She took the time to get to know me and listen to my concerns before she customized our sessions to meet my needs. With the help from Lois, I gained a better understanding of my individual Strengths and how they impact me in my personal life and at my organization.
I feel like I learned more about myself at a deeper level and have a greater sense of fulfillment. I would definitely encourage others who are interested in learning how to maximize their Strengths to consider working with Lois!
