Switzer Associates – Leadership Solutions has devoted itself solely to the study and practice of leadership development and providing key executive resources since 2003. Our Founder and CEO, Dr. Merlin Switzer has had a passion for leadership for more than 46 years. Executive coaching and leadership development programs are an integral part of the services we offer.
Our calling is to come alongside executive leaders who are serious about transforming their leadership. We, and they, believe that with the right commitment they can profoundly impact their business and personal life. We serve as a catalyst to help facilitate that change through customized executive coaching, engaging training, tailored team building, and assistance with an array of strategic processes which moves leaders toward achieving their goals. Our experience tells us that a blend of these approaches works the best and may involve other leaders in their company.
We focus on long-term relationships where we have the opportunity to understand each unique leader, their business culture, and the roadblocks they may be facing on the path to achieving great success. Change rarely happens overnight though we have witnessed significant impact from just one coaching session.
For the Christian leader, this transformation may include integrating their faith with their role as a leader. This can take many forms, such as making available biblically-based financial planning for their employees and engaging their employees in community service projects. As stewards of their business, we support their efforts of leading and managing well. We believe that effective leadership principles find their basis in biblical truths. We include scriptural references and a spiritual perspective where possible. We serve leaders of various faiths and non-faith.
