Emily Neustadt - Lessons in Leadership

Emily Neustadt

Emily's specialty is in strategic planning and delivering feedback in a way that motivates professionals and clarifies the next needed step. She teaches these skills to individuals and teams. Her systems-centered perspective grounds the coaching experience in the reality of the organization's business and political environment, enabling clients to achieve exceptional results, utilizing their gifts and talents. She specializes in helping executives and teams:

• Communicate more effectively, to create and participate fully in a win-win team environment
• Give and receive usable feedback, productively, within and beyond the context of 360 degree assessments
• Achieve exceptional results before and after significant promotion or organizational change
• Lead themselves and others by influence
• Find organizationally sound ways to use entrepreneurial thinking and impact the bottom line
• Grow beyond a single contributor role or mentality

From a strategic perspective, Emily creates vital programs that clearly address business needs and link to succession planning, diversity and development initiatives.

Her negotiation and influencing skills programs have been successfully utilized by major financial services, television and music companies. She creates unique training experiences for groups that emphasize the practical, business use of the skills taught, and where possible, builds one-on-one or group coaching into the design of her programs. The learning retention rate dramatically increases and participants are able to make significant, lasting changes.

She also worked on programs involving: major universities; the State Department; the embassies of China, Brazil, Argentina, Japan and the United Arab Emirates. She helped to fine-tune cross cultural communication skills of high profile employees negotiating on behalf of their governments and testifying before congress on the laws affecting their industries.

A graduate of Sarah Lawrence College, Emily has also studied at Harvard and the New School for Social Research, (now the New School University). She is trained in the Systems Centered Approach, and appears regularly as a guest lecturer and panelist for New York University, Polytechnic University and many professional organizations.
