Your business results are a function of the effectiveness of your teams.
Most organizations are run by a fragmented set of independent leaders competing for resources and influence while driving KPIs that support their own agendas. This can lead to:
Destructive conflict and communication breakdowns
Healthy conflict is vital to success but when conflict develops it harms the overall culture.
A culture that doesn’t support the strategic vision
A mis-aligned culture hinders execution, stifles innovation, and creates employee frustration.
A 'me’ versus ‘we’ attitude that dampens overall alignment
A strong team requires unity, but when individual agendas take precedence, it weakens the collective and hinders progress.
Meritage brings your executives together to identify gaps in leadership and generate alignment on vision, talent development, and innovation while building more meaningful relationships as a foundation for excellence.
Our approach is built on our deep understanding of the Five Pillars of an Engaged Team.
Cohesion
We help you build a team that trusts and respects one another and feels connected. A team that has each other’s backs and recognizes they are greater as a team than as individual contributors.
Constructive Communication
We help your team engage in honest and direct communication regarding challenges and successes, and openly work through different points of view.
Goal Alignment
We help you ensure your team is clear and aligned on your organization’s mission, goals and priorities, and how their success as a team is measured against those goals.
Accountability
We help your team understand how their performance and behavior contribute to team success and create a process where they receive timely feedback regarding their contribution.
Growth & Development
We help you build a culture of support for each other in their learning and growth to accelerate team success. We also help you illuminate the strengths and natural gifts each other brings to the team.

Divesh Makan
Managing Partner, ICONIQ Capital
“When I inherited a large, new team at Oracle, I brought in Meritage to establish the onboarding strategy. I was filling the large shoes of a former GM who was well respected—which can typically be a difficult situation!
Meritage drove success in our business by helping us learn our working styles through the Enneagram assessment process and by guiding us to develop strong models for understanding and collaboration. Our engagement with Meritage was an essential part of our turnaround strategy for the business.”
Rob Tarkoff
EVP & GM, Oracle Corporation
“Meritage helped me to create strategies for staying focused amidst ever-shifting priorities and challenges.
With their help I was able to get a different perspective on my responsibilities, my team and my goals.
Meritage really helped me get my leadership and my team to a new level!”
Nick Rockwell
CTO, Conde Nast
“The Meritage team is intuitive and a quick study when it comes to reading a team and their dynamics. They have helped take a team I inherited that was full of dysfunction and pull them together into cohesive group.
Meritage not only provided me with individual coaching, but combined it with group work that my team found extremely helpful.”
J. Harper
SVP of Global Clinical Affairs & CTO, KCI Inc (now 3M)
“Meritage has been an exceptional advisor.
As our group went through a major reorganization, the insights and tools they brought have transformed the way we work, and set us on the path to becoming a high performance organization.”
Marc Speichert
Former Global CMO at L’Oreal
“It is rare to find someone that combines the sensitivity, intelligence, and boldness to propel you beyond what you ideally think you are capable of.
Meritage does that. This firm is the adviser you want on your side.
Investing to accelerate your leadership is the most powerful step you can take to scale your business.”
