Leadership Development
The world is evolving at an accelerating pace. Leaders face globalisation, technology shifts, disruption and, as recent years have shown, significant public‑health risks. Maes & Lunau supports private and public organisations in making the right choices at the right moment. We act as a partner to executives and supervisory boards on all leadership development questions. Together we work toward solutions that strengthen long‑term growth.
Our consultants are trained to guide candidates during their first year of onboarding. That period often requires mutual adjustment for both the new employer and the candidate. It calls for empathy and awareness on both sides, and we support this process with care and precision.
Leadership development starts with strong supervision. In 2020, Maes & Lunau and the leadership institute Avicenna launched a programme for future non‑executive directors. Topics include governance principles as well as the personal role at the board table.
We are increasingly asked to help assemble senior teams using advanced assessment methods. Our consultants are certified to do this work, because evaluating individuals and teams is a core part of our expertise. For specific assessments we collaborate closely with external specialists such as Jonathan Warner.
The result is a partnership in which consultants, candidates and clients work together toward sustainable collaboration. Maes & Lunau aims to be a trusted partner for supervisory boards, CEOs and executive teams in family businesses and public institutions.
Onboarding
We collaborate with experienced executive team coaches who specialise in strengthening the effectiveness of top teams. During the transition period they work with the new leader and the team to quickly build a productive dynamic grounded in trust, awareness of each other’s strengths and pitfalls, shared priorities, constructive dialogue and healthy conflict. Investing in this early phase helps prevent patterns that may hinder performance later on..
Supervisory Programme Maes & Lunau / Avicenna
Unconscious biases are difficult to recognise in yourself. Circumstances can influence authentic behaviour more than you realise. In supervisory roles this can have significant consequences.
