Altair:
new heights
Altair works with senior leaders who look for the support of a trusted and richly experienced partner in ensuring their success. We’re thoughtful yet direct; our clients rely upon us for healthy challenge and, at critical moments, to know where we stand.
Our work is delivered in three critical contexts: Leadership Advisory, Career Strategy & Transition, and Leadership Team Excellence.

“without doubt the most valuable conversations I’ve ever had within this role”
Leadership Advisory
Define your leadership
We passionately believe that for leaders to thrive they need time to think with a trusted, independent ally. Working in total confidentiality, our clients work with us to solve for challenges and opportunities of the highest order and the most sensitive nature; discussions that are, by definition, usually impossible within their organisation or with traditional City advisers.
Collaborating across the disciplines of strategy, coaching, and industry experience we deliver to our clients the value of our collective experience. Altair provides a place for reflection, critical thinking, deep thought and healthy challenge, creating a springboard to action.
Executive Transition
from one state to another
We are deeply experienced in supporting leaders through C-suite and ExCo transitions, operating as continuity and counsel during periods of significant change. As leaders step up to new roles, step into new organisations or step away to an uncertain future, we help our clients find perspective and a sense of purpose, control and agency.
Transition - new organisation
Transition - step up to ExCo or Board
Transition - exit
Transition - retirement
Career Strategy
A plan of action
Taking control of optimising a career requires self awareness, a clear goal, a coherent plan and the tactics, relationships and ring-craft to outperform in an opaque competitive market.
Working with senior leaders at critical moments of opportunity – be that change or threat - we actively guide them through the emotional and professional challenges of their specific context. These include but are not limited to;
Defining fulfilment
Preparing for transition or succession
Maximising opportunities for progression
Honing communication
Maximising interview success
leadership team excellence
PERFORMANCE: ACCELERATED
Every senior leadership team aspires to be more than the sum of its parts. And yet this is rare in practice – senior leadership teams are typically complex and nuanced, increasingly required to achieve ambitious goals in a challenging context, and always with individuals bringing their own histories into the mix.
We ensure teams gain clarity about what they need to both connect and perform within their specific context and help optimise those dynamics to drive delivery.
Working with the whole team, for a short intervention or over a longer period, we build trust, alignment and commitment, unearth and address performance blockers, and facilitate sustainable accountability and performance.
