EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP PERFORMANCE ACCELERATOR

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

• THE PROBLEM

  Most leadership programs sit beside the business.
  Leaders learn new language.
  Execution does not change.

  Under real pressure, your current leadership system reveals itself:

  • Priorities shift constantly, and work struggles to finish
  • Escalations replace decisions
  • Heroics replace disciplined execution
  • Alignment is assumed, then breaks downstream

  People do not rise to their aspirations.

  They fall to the level of their leadership system.

• THE ELPA DIFFERENCE

  ELPA does not develop leaders in isolation.

  Change happens inside live work, under real pressure, led by the executive responsible for the team’s success.

  It installs a shared execution leadership system directly into how leadership teams:

  • Align on priorities before work begins
  • Make decisions as a team, not in silos
  • Rationalize work that earns commitment
  • Review outcomes and improve results

  A leader’s commitment is to the success of the team, not any single individual. Team members commit to earn their place on the team through their work every day.

• WHAT ELPA IS

  A System Creator-Led Execution Accelerator

  ELPA is a leadership performance accelerator where executives and their direct reports install the 120VC Execution Leadership System together.

  This is not training.
  This is not consulting.
  This is a system installation.

  By week 16, the system is not understood. It is operational.

  Over the following 13 weeks, leadership moves upstream, operating inside the system to intentionally allocate time, talent, and capital as investments that produce measurable return.

  In the next 13-week operating phase, leadership capability compounds through the work itself, as the team deliberately develops judgment, decision-making, and execution mastery in real time.

  The result is not a trained team.

  In less than a year, you have a leadership system and team that is unstoppable.

  • Execution is no longer a point of failure.
  • Leadership capacity is distributed, not concentrated.
  • Reality is visible early and without fear.
  • Capital is allocated intentionally, not consumed by demand.
  • Volatility increases advantage instead of causing panic.

  Every deployment of time, talent, attention, and capital is intentional and constantly drives growth for the company.

• WHAT CHANGES

  After system installation:

  • Leaders plan, commit, execute, and review together as a single leadership team
  • Priorities align before work begins, eliminating mid-week churn and rework
  • Low-value work stops getting funded because work must earn commitment
  • Dependencies surface early and are resolved upstream, not through escalation
  • Meetings produce clear commitments and decisions, not updates or theater
  • Silence no longer masquerades as alignment; gaps and misalignment are visible and addressed
  • Accountability becomes factual, not political, because commitments are explicit
  • Execution becomes predictable instead of heroic, without slowing the business
  • The leadership bench becomes clear—who can and will operate at this level is visible in the work

  The team functions as a leadership team, not functional silos.

• WHO THIS IS FOR

  ELPA is for executive leaders who believe things can work better and are not willing to accept “this is just how it is.”

  It’s for competent VPs and SVPs who have worked through project management, Six Sigma, Agile, and every other wave of improvement, and still believe a successful execution system is possible.

  It’s for leaders who read “leadership stops reacting and starts operating as an investment strategy. Time, talent, attention, and capital are allocated intentionally with a clear expectation of measurable improvement in customer satisfaction, team satisfaction, and profitability, none at the expense of the others” and immediately recognize it as their own personal truth.

  It’s for leaders who care deeply about their teams, feel the weight of broken systems, and are driven to make things better, not just manage around the damage.

  It’s for executive leadership teams willing to install the system themselves first, operate inside it visibly, and lead the change from the level where authority actually lives.

  If you still believe there’s a better way to execute and you’re ready to commit to it ELPA is for you.

• WHO THIS IS NOT FOR

  ELPA is not for individual leadership development, and it is not for leaders looking to delegate leadership development to HR, L&D, or a pilot group.

  It’s not for executives who want their teams to change while they remain outside the system, or who believe participation can be optional.

  It’s not for organizations seeking inspiration, tools, optics, or new language without changing how priorities are set, decisions are made, and commitments are held.

  And it’s not for leaders who need exception status to stay comfortable.

  If leadership development is something you want to sponsor, customize, selectively adopt, or stay above, ELPA will not work, and we won’t pretend otherwise.

  This system works every time until leaders exempt themselves from it, or tolerate those who can’t or won’t at the expense of those who can and will.

• WHY ELPA STARTS AT THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL

  ELPA must start at the executive level (SVP or VP) because new ways of working must be shared, not fragmented. They only take root when leaders model, master, and reinforce them where real authority lives, then cascade them down into the organization.

  Most execution systems don’t fail because leaders are unwilling, but because they believe they can operate one way while the rest of the organization translates their intent into execution. That assumption is wrong.

  People don’t translate leadership behavior. They model it. Leaders cannot lead a system they do not understand.

  When executives don’t operate inside the system themselves, they cannot reinforce it, coach it, or protect it under pressure. What they don’t understand, they override. What they don’t practice, they cannot model. The result is fragmented execution, wasted time, and lost money.

  This is why project management, Agile, OKRs, and Six Sigma failed in so many organizations. Leaders supported the ideas but never lived inside the system. The organization followed what leadership did, not what leadership said.

  When leaders go first and operate inside the system visibly, alignment holds, decisions stick, and execution stabilizes. Only then can success be cascaded down with integrity.

  This isn’t about hierarchy. It’s about how human systems actually work.
