What is a four eyed fish?
And why does it matter?
We hoped you’d ask. A four-eyed fish has only two eyes, but can see above and below the waterline at the same time. Their vision is unique, and so is ours.
four eyed fish brings its one-of-a-kind perspective to each and every project and focuses on connecting the approach and implementation of client communication with our clients’ objectives, strategy, and timing. We deliver quality, creativity, and results. And we do it with passion and genuine partnership.
But communication is just the start. It’s what happens next that’s important. And when you’re successful, so are we.
Strategic Communications
Our focus:
- Meaningful employee research
- Increased employee engagement
- Leader communication
- Internal & executive communication strategy and implementation
- Change and crisis communication
- Surveys, measurement, and evaluation
What if employees weren’t merely engaged? What if they felt like they were stakeholders in the success of your organization? What if they gave, not just extra time, but more careful thought and genuine passion? Where would that put your team in terms of productivity? The results would be transformative.
four eyed fish enables companies to understand employee dynamics, culture, and interests. Your colleagues are your audience—your internal customer—and your greatest asset. The more involved they are, the more committed they will be.
When leaders understand how their employees tick, the design of their in-house and executive communications becomes intuitive. No longer simply the relaying of information, communication becomes a way to build employee enthusiasm and commitment—a tool to achieve the goals of the organization.
Executive Coaching
We focus on all aspects of leadership goals and challenges—but we specialize in how you communicate. We help our clients:
• Define vision, goals, and strategy
• Build leadership skills
• Increase individual and team productivity
• Achieve their “best possible” results
• Provide unbiased, objective feedback
• Ask the tough questions
• Help you find better work-life balance
We work with leaders too. Professional advancement comes with higher expectations. The communication skills that served you for years may need an upgrade. Dynamic public speaking and effectively leading team discussions are now essential. Making meaningful connections through a variety of channels—like e-mail and video conferencing—can be harder than anticipated. And the stakes are high. Achieving the vision you have for your team and for your organization depends upon effective communication.
Through our executive coaching, leaders acquire the necessary skills and learn to utilize the right tools to convey their ideas, motivate their teams, and form authentic connections with their colleagues. Whether you’re facing new career tasks, like public speaking, or simply struggling with critical face-to-face team connections, we can help you build the specific skills to get it right and get results. Improved communication is a critical investment in your career. You can’t afford to put it off.
“If you want to have the edge in your business, true employee engagement
is not a ‘nice-to-have’ … It’s critical.”
