We change organizations by changing how their executive teams work together.
“The Olori Network didn’t just teach a one-time strategy. They changed our way of being.”
Executive challenges are rarely one-dimensional.
They’re often a mix of
the people in the room
how they work together
and the systems shaping how work gets done
“There are a lot of people who coach, but The Olori Network offers something different: a model for shared leadership and real capacity-building.
It works.”
BETH THOMPSON, CEO
Our Process: The DIAL Method
We start by getting under the hood—understanding how your team and system work, and where the biggest opportunities lie.
Then, we break that down into clear, doable steps woven into your everyday work—small loops of learning and applying that build momentum and real capability over time.
The result? Collective learning that sticks, and the muscle to keep evolving over time.

You might be wondering…
-
Coaching is one lever for change, but incomplete on its own. We support individual leaders and help the team see patterns, make better decisions, and operate with clarity across the system.
-
In our experience, efforts fall short when they stay abstract or sit outside the team’s real work. That’s why we embed inside the decisions, dynamics, and operating rhythms already underway — so new habits form under real conditions.
-
In periods of growth, change, or rising expectations, even high-performing teams hit friction points that slow down execution or create unnecessary tension. We find that the strongest teams build the capability to lead well before the stakes escalate.
-
That’s great! We see our role as complementary. What we bring is impartial perspective and pattern recognition built from working with many executive teams. Sometimes what's needed is an outside voice —one with a broader lens and the freedom to name what may be hard for others.
-
The data — and our experience — are clear:
Teams that skip the relational work spend significantly more time in rework, repair, and revisiting decisions. The teams that invest in it create the conditions to integrate perspectives, align, and navigate disagreement faster. -
We have great resources we love to share, but frameworks only work when the underlying systems and relationships are strong enough to use them consistently. We help teams build those muscles — clarity, alignment, accountability, and the ability to stay connected under pressure.
“The impact has been lasting. We can self-correct faster and with far greater impact.”
KINNARI PATEL-SMYTH, President
