Welcome to Bridging Associates

What do Patricia Heyman and Bridging Associates offer that is new and creates breakthrough possibilities?

We focus on three areas. Our simple tagline is “Jumping from the iPod to the We Pod.” Basically, our work with you will result in breaking through the barriers to essential group collaboration.

Through the use of our essential tripod made up of communication, accountability, and solution focus, we build and develop high-performing teams that interact regularly, trust each other, and have the ability to be creative and innovative.

There are three areas of focus that we use to create results:

1Team leadership coaching for senior leaders to increase personal effectiveness within their own top leadership team, and with the teams that they lead.

2Team building and development, using innovative processes, to create relationships that allow connection and communication to become a regular part of every day. Dynamic, useful meetings that are productive work sessions eliminating the phrase often heard at the end of a meeting, “I have to get back to work.”

• Our Four Meeting Model offers a specific way to bring a new meeting culture into your environment. The elements in this model are contained in the Collaborative Leadership model with consultant facilitation. For more information on using these elements, and incorporating into your team, visit: The Four Meeting Model.

3Using our Collaborative Leadership Team Alignment model we also engage with your team in a strategic planning process so that implementation takes place. We use the team approach and the processes to create the areas of strategic priority and, most important, to produce the involvement and engagement of everyone in the organization to achieve those goals.
