Q3 Life

Q3 Life offers organizations a way to preserve business momentum, plan for succession and leverage the departing leader’s knowledge and institutional presence, while giving the executive a fully customized, high-touch transition experience that is personally and professionally rewarding. To define and prepare Q3 Life clients for the next chapter, our teams bring a new and richer meaning to these 3 areas.

Professional skills: What’s a good fit for you?

Q3 Life considers each client’s skill set in his or her current role. But we also probe for new capabilities and professional styles. Many senior executives have played to their strengths for decades. Where the next chapter looks very different, we identify the gap between current and future demands and provide knowledge and choice.

Personal traits: What excites you?

Q3 Life really stretches the personal dimension. We help clients affirm their personal values. We probe tolerances for change, risk, uncertainty and lack of structure. Most critically, we ask, “What inspires you? What moves you?” Often it makes sense to include family members in dialogue about the plan. Involving the client’s financial planner and other advisors can also help ensure a chosen future fits and feels right.

Possibilities: What can the world offer you?

In Q3 Life, the possibilities are bounded only by the client’s imagination. Here the Knightsbridge network is priceless. We can put clients in touch with peers who are living their desired future. It’s the next best thing to a test drive. And sometimes we even arrange those.

Q3 Life’s timeline is flexible

Some clients take breaks of weeks or months to reflect, spend time with family or tend to pressing business. That kind of flex is built into Q3 Life
