Our Approach | Fierce Conversations - Fierce, Inc.

OUR APPROACH

Everyone at fierce represents fierce. Fierce is defined as: dedicated, robust, intense, strong, powerful, passionate, eager, unbridled. 

We exist to strengthen human to human connection. We believe that businesses who do business the human way will stand the test of time and impact the world for the better. Few things are as important to study, practice, and perfect as clear communication. We are fiercely dedicated to meeting companies where they are and taking them to a place they never thought possible, exceeding the expected return on investment.

Investing in your business starts with investing in your people. If you aren’t training your people at every level, HOW to communicate with teammates, within departments, across the company, and with the public, then you aren’t impacting the culture in a way that will transform it for good. Better interpersonal communication creates a stronger culture that reduces stress and increases performance on the individual and team level.

Every single business and personal goal you have is powered by conversations. We transform the careers, companies, relationships, cultures, and lives of everyone we work with.

We have created unique visuals and content that are easy to understand and apply. We sell you programming that fits your unique problems. We refuse to just sell things “off the shelf.”  We are your partner in cultural transformation and leadership growth.

Take a look at the long-lasting effects of Fierce:

Before Fierce After Fierce
Focus on activities. Focus on results.
Skirting the issues. No one engages. Nothing changes. Open culture that identifies and addresses issues truthfully. Generating the best decision for the organization.
An ‘us versus them,’ ‘me versus you’ culture. Politics, turf wars, competition for resources, and attention. High levels of alignment, collaboration, and partnership at all levels throughout the organization.
Reacting to and recuperating from poorly thought-out conversations. Engaging in effective, consequential conversations that resolve tough challenges.
Leaders micro-managing versus leading. No grass roots leadership development. Effective coaching and delegation. Development of quality ‘bench’ to fill future leadership positions.
A relationship with customers and employees based solely on price and salary. Diffulty maintaining margins. Relationships with customers and employees that extend beyond price. Customers and employees are engaged on an emotional level.
Original thinking is happening elsewhere. Sleepwalking through the manual. Shared enthusiasm for agility, continued learning, and epiphanies; shared standard of performance.
A culture of terminal ‘niceness.’ Avoiding or working around problem employees. Tolerating mediocrity. Effectively confronting attitudinal, performance or behavioral issues, and creating the impetus for change.
