WHAT IT IS
What Executive Sparring is
Executive Sparring is structured, confidential strategic challenge for the person who makes the final call. A sparring partner does not decide for you or supply the answer: the job is to test your reasoning before reality does.
THE DIFFERENCE
How it differs from executive coaching
Executive coaching
Focus: the person who decides.
Outcome: stronger judgement and capability.
Format: four programmes for different levels of responsibility.
Executive Sparring
Focus: the year’s specific decisions.
Outcome: three strategic decisions in execution.
Format: one-to-one, strictly confidential.
FOR WHOM
CEOs, founders, managing directors and chief executives of SMEs and family businesses.
FORMAT
Individual and strictly confidential, in person or by video call, in Spanish or English.
DURATION
Twelve weeks, or twenty-four weeks on a fortnightly basis.
WHAT IT INSTALLS
The outcome is not a certificate. It is a working system.
- The three strategic decisions of the year, structured and in execution.
- The uncomfortable delayed decision, unblocked with judgement and appropriate form.
- A clear position on AI and three prioritised pilots.
- A first-line talent map and the necessary conversations prepared.
- A Decision Notebook and a Personal Decision Manual.
- Built on the MAPS method.
HOW IT IS MEASURED
Against the baseline of your own organisation.
One central indicator agreed in session three: the year’s three decisions in execution, with method, at the close.
The close includes evidence, a report and an honest recommendation about the next step — or about taking no further step.
