“90% of business problems are personal problems in disguise.” -Michael Port
Engagement, Performance, Retention, Attraction
As the leader of a corporate team, you are guiding others to accomplish a shared vision. As much as you care about business performance, you care equally about the real satisfaction your employees derive from their work. You want to create a vibrant workplace culture with flourishing individuals who are strong, healthy, happy, liberated in their voices, and empowered to make decisions in their roles. You know this is also how to retain and attract top talent in your industry.
But engagement, performance, retention, and attraction are lagging indicators of other factors. They are effects. And some of the variables which you can see are affecting them seem to be unrelated to the workplace. In order to create a culture of excellence where employees not only want to come, but look forward to being – a place where they want to stay and innovate, and invest their minds and hearts, what lever do we pull?

The Elephant in the Room
The real reasons for disengagement and performance gaps actually have “nothing to do with this job.” You might have seen the writing on the wall for quite some time: obstacles to consistently-high performance, focus, and motivation are usually “personal” in nature – intrinsically related to individuals’ growth, health, and satisfaction.
Meanwhile, top performers in organizations everywhere are trying their best to manage serious issues like depression, anxiety, pain, poor confidence, sustained mood or energy challenges, self doubt, and insecurity that don’t have symptoms which are visible to most others. And this type of silent endurance happens to the detriment of themselves and their team.
If it feels like you should be able to help your team members with all of this, but can’t or don’t know how, you are not alone.
It’s not that you need to do more, but that you need to get the correct support to help your team with the underlying issues affecting their ability to engage in their profession whole-heartedly. This is where our team can help your team.
At Palladium Mind, we support corporate teams in creating obvious and measurable, step-function improvements to the most impactful but tricky “human factors” which determine your business unit’s most important key performance indicators.
We do this by providing world-class, trauma-informed, discrete and individualized tools, support, executive coaching, and transformation services through well-defined engagements with clear terms, roadmap, and ROI.

Our team can help you not only achieve these outcomes with your team, but also measure the changes so that the business case for the investment you make into your people through this strategy is clear and obvious.
How do we help our clients consistently achieve these outcomes? Through an effective strategy.
An Effective Strategy
We Can Help You Lighten Your Team’s Load
When individuals lack intrinsic wellbeing, doubt themselves, feel unconfident to speak up, struggle with anxiety and depression, or lack inside-out happiness, satisfaction, and self trust, you may have noticed that trying to teach or “coach” these attributes and behaviors is like fighting a battle uphill. The aim is correct, but the strategy doesn’t work.
That’s because confidence, focus, and comfort with uncertainty and change cannot be developed or unleashed no matter how much help or assistance you provide while the individual sustains the painful mental experiences listed above. Instead, the underlying mental, emotional, or unconscious cause of the problems must be resolved.
A viable strategy is able to positively impact these four human factors:
- Authentic Confidence
- Satisfaction from Within
- Vibrant Mental Wellbeing
- Trust (Self Trust & In-Org Trust)
Imagine what occurs if your business creates the opportunity for even one of your team members to make noticeable, permanent improvement in one or more of these areas? Loyalty and feelings of natural reciprocity bloom when companies provide help like this. The staying power of this is unparalleled, and for our clients, the value of these shifts have been immeasurable.
Our Process for Corporate Engagement
How Could We Support Your Team?
At Palladium Mind we take a principles-first approach and an individuals-first strategy to guide and support healthy, organic, lasting organizational changes.
We serve clients through a structured but flexible process to support them as much as possible! We want to make things as simple and easy as we can.
The following five steps are available for every client engagement, which ensure we have a clear and well-defined plan – mapped to the organization’s needs and goals – for how resources and time within the engagement will be allocated, and that we provide the perfect strategic support for your one-of-a-kind team:
- Needs & Values Interview (understand strategic objectives, stakeholders, key priorities, and organizational structure)
- Objectives-Based Diagnostic (where is the team now compared to where it wants to be?)
- Make A Recommendation (tailor a strategy to produce retained value and share options through a written proposal)
- Create Unmatched Value & Measure It (deliver services to the final proposal)
- Respond & Improve (assess impact, report monthly, continuously improve based on feedback received)
Our engagements are tailored to each individual, guided, and supported in professional, structured formats which are enjoyable and rewarding to experience.
We use a proprietary results framework called the 4 Keys along with transformational processes and tools to create resolution for individuals’ unique needs and wants in support of their professional performance and personal evolution and growth. Confidence, mood, focus, clarity, energy, courage, trust, comfort, and groundedness are common effects. But our support also liberates their inherent potential through direct first-hand experiences that will yield dividends for years to come.
Beyond resolution of a core issue, we can also support leaders within your organization to access more interpersonal freedom, greater healthy interdependence, and greater alignment in their decision-making (more certainty, less doubt, less regret). This assistance utilizes the four pillars of our creative mastery framework.
What I’ve witnessed time and time again, is that when we turn these corners, work performance improves, team cohesion improves, and communication improves across functions and up and down levels. We constantly see individuals’ relationship to stress quickly change for the better. This creates ripple effects of value in the organization.
Here are some corporate objectives we’ve shared with clients in the past:
- Improve leadership alignment around a vision of the future
- Increase organizational capacity to recruit and retain diverse talent
- Equip leaders with tools for conflict and change management (quantitative)
- Make more effective use of limited resources
- Increase employee satisfaction (qualitative)
- Improve team performance (quantitative)
- [insert your goals here]
We would love to help your team. Schedule a call to begin a conversation about how our support could enhance your team’s existing brilliance.
