Our Approach, Value, and Resources
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to grow sales revenue, earnings, and shareholder value.
“Leadership should be the most defined behavior in the organization, not the most ambiguous.”
Cornerstone Organizational Operating System (COOS)
The Cornerstone System establishes and manages organizational disciplines and management behaviors. One performance language is established throughout the organization.
Cornerstones Enhance Other Systems
Systems such as McKinsey, Bain, ISO-9001, Lean, EOS, CRM —generally focus on process, production, or compliance. They are challenged to shift or pivot entire organizations. Cornerstones overlay and enhance the effectiveness of these systems.
“Behavior is the only form of leadership that scales in any size organization.”
Cornerstones Defined
The Cornerstone Organizational Operating System (COOS) is focused on developing Leadership, Culture, Strategy, and Communication. It is an operationally integrated approach scalable for all sized organizations.
“Culture is the operating system of the organization—leadership defines it, communication energizes it, strategy tests it.”
Cornerstone Training Development
Cornerstone training development programs provides customized turnkey training programs, or (in-house) train-the-trainer development. This is available through the Cornerstone Development Plans.
Leadership Behaviors Drive Growth
The Cornerstone Organizational Operating System (COOS) purpose is not to deliver advice. It is to replace ambiguity with systematized behavior. To rewire culture, not just diagnose it. To operationalize leadership, not theorize it.
