Creating Corporate Growth & Innovation
Drawing from Terry’s extensive Wharton and business / government contacts, Pierpont assists CEOs and corporate leaders to achieve new levels of competitive distinction – for themselves and for the firms – by using big data analytical research tools and newly positioned strategies, then creating and embedding new growth and “cutting-edge” sustainable innovation into their organizations.
How? By Working Closely and Confidentially with Leaders to:
Challenge existing concepts – about the organization and the competitive landscape.
Pierpont uses its advanced analytics capabilities to create new opportunities for our portfolio investments, yet we found that only a small percentage of our target companies are able to combine the right tools, data, professionals and organizational focus to take advantage. To realize the value of big data, Pierpont uses the organizations focus on strategic—and not merely technological—solutions. Pierpont’s strategy experience and analytical expertise help ensure that businesses build the right capabilities to mine data for insights that can enable better decisions and create value.
Uncover new opportunities – creating game-changing businesses and innovative pathways to untapped markets.
Create cutting-edge strategies for growth and innovation.
Implement new ventures and capabilities in the organization. With the capacity to draw on an experienced team of business leaders and thinkers, Pierpont uses a customized yet structured approach to generate new opportunities for top-line growth, value creation and sustained profitability. For the senior manager, this means tapping into an engine of innovation while staying focused on the enterprise as a whole.
Strategy is a company’s game plan for winning; it maps out the moves a business must make to outwit the competition, captivate customers and increase long-term shareholder value. Effective strategy inspires and informs the actions of the executive team, and mobilizes employees.
Pierpont has helped numerous organizations develop and deliver on their strategies. He has enabled companies to find new sources of profitable growth, re-position their businesses for the future and sharpen their competitive advantage.
CEO Coaching
Leadership Coaching Q&A:
Who are your clients?
Terry works personally and confidentially with business leaders who aspire to be extraordinary. Many are already highly successful CEOs looking to expand into new ventures; whether internal or external to their organizations. Others are the next generation of executives who want to accelerate their professional growth and achieve exceptional results. The leaders Terry advises share a desire to excel and the self-awareness to recognize that focused attention, an infusion of new ideas, and trusted collaboration can amplify their success. Together, Terry and his clients build customized plans for personal and professional growth that are precise in focus and deliberate in action.
What is unique about your coaching?
Coaching is a passion. Terry is deeply committed to helping other leaders succeed, drawing on proven approaches that evolved from his own business experience and his years at Wharton. This journey has given him a distinctive perspective on how to challenge leaders to exceed their own expectations.
Over the past 25 years, Terry has had the opportunity to work, study, teach, and coach alongside some of the finest business minds and most accomplished CEOs in the world. He knows firsthand what it means to be accountable for P&L, new ventures, corporate growth, and acquisition strategies across a wide range of industries. His extensive research at the London School of Economics focused on successful corporate growth and global diversification strategies. Through Wharton’s intensive Advanced Management Program, he explored CEO-driven issues of leadership, organizational change, and competitive strategy alongside top executives from leading organizations around the world. And during his seventeen years on the Wharton faculty, Terry forged lasting relationships with exceptional CEOs, distinguished faculty, and an extraordinarily talented community of MBA students at every stage of their careers.
This combination of in-the-trenches experience, research-based analysis, and a network of innovative thinkers and leaders gives Terry a depth and breadth of insight that he brings to every engagement.
How does a CEO or leader benefit from working with you as a coach?
Leaders of significant organizations are often already successful; yet still driven to stretch further, to accomplish more in business, government, their communities, and the world. As a coach, Terry serves as both catalyst and confidante, helping clients sharpen their focus and pursue their most meaningful goals. He draws on a broad network of leaders across business, government, and academia to generate transformative ideas, connections, and opportunities. Terry and Pierpont work closely with each client to understand what their strategy is trying to achieve, chart a clear course of action, and maintain a trusted, confidential relationship that frequently extends well beyond the formal coaching engagement.
Depending on their goals, clients have been able to:
- Accelerate their professional growth and career success
- Sharpen their business acumen
- Expand their social capital through high-level networking
- Improve their personal net worth
- Develop cutting-edge strategies for their businesses
- Inspire their teams and organizations to achieve exceptional results
True entrepreneurial leadership is a process of discovery; and great leadership flourishes in a climate of high impact. Pierpont’s role is to help you achieve both.
