I’m SECHSE and I Know it

The quality, elegance, and sophistication of the products made on the anvil are a reflection of the craftsmanship of the maker and the willingness of the material. Hard metal must be softened for it to be reworked under the tools of the shaper. Through a process of trust building, organizations and executives can become vulnerable so that expert consultants and coaches can lead them through the transformation process. 

Our process follows the SECHSE Protocol, which our founder cheekily likes to pronounce “sexy.” Each step is a prerequisite for the next so that a team or individual can move from where they are now to where they want to be. 

• S: Soften. Prepare by allowing for vulnerability.

• E: Expose. Reveal the issue, weakness, or opportunity for improvement.

• C: Cleanse. Remove that which is corrupting or betraying progress and results.

• H: Heal. Repair the concern and rehabilitate from the procedure.

• S: Strengthen. Develop and build upon the new skill or standard.

• E: Empower. Use the strength to achieve results and attain goals.

When unproductive conditions exist, vision is obscured, opportunities are missed, and challenges are amplified. Other negative results are lost effectiveness, team distress, and ultimately lower profits and slower growth.

To operate under better conditions and reach a more valuable destination, teams and individuals must embrace attributes of responsibility, vulnerability, empathy, rehabilitation, and improvement. Addressing the issues and doing the work to resolve them are worth the effort, and the results are far more satisfying. Now that’s SECHSE!
