A Note from Don Southerton<\/b><\/p>\n

While my services have been well received and highly valued over the past decade, in 2013, I began shifting focus from training programs and coaching leadership to a deeper role with a few select clients.<\/p>\n

In other words, rather than standing outside the organization and giving advice, counsel and perspective, I actively facilitated and supervised projects that addressed the companies\u2019 pressing needs. This approach, built upon my understanding the nuances of Korean-based business and their companies, has proven to be extremely successful for my clients.<\/p>\n

This new role was driven from ten years\u2019 of listening to teams and leadership share (and, at times, vent) challenges. Frankly, after listening to this dialogue, I felt that this expanded value-added approach\u2014one clearly within my skill sets —would serve my clients well.<\/p>\n

As we begin 2014, I look forward to supporting you and would like to discuss how this new service can help you meet your firm\u2019s strategic challenges.<\/p>\n
