FAQ

What does the employer see?

Employers receive engagement visibility, utilization reporting, and milestone completion data so they can monitor program progress. Employers do not see private coaching conversations or individual personal strategy discussions.

How long does the program last?

The standard program runs for six months, with customization options based on organizational needs. A time-bound structure increases focus, encourages steady engagement, and keeps support windows operationally clear.

How do leaders choose specialists?

Leaders select from a curated specialist network using flexible specialist selection. Harbinger provides data-informed recommendations and staff guidance, while preserving leader agency over final selection decisions.

What happens if a leader disengages?

Program engagement is monitored against clear activity signals. If momentum drops, Harbinger applies structured nudges and staff check-ins to re-establish focus and restore forward movement.

How is quality maintained across specialists?

Specialist work is delivered through standardized packages with defined deliverables and completion criteria. Internal oversight and package-level governance maintain consistency, quality, and accountability.

Is this appropriate for senior executives?

Yes. The model is designed for executive expectations: clear structure, credible specialist options, privacy boundaries, and a composed process that supports reputation and outcomes.

How is pricing structured?

The model uses a credit-based funding structure so organizations can pre-fund support and manage budget predictably. Credits are allocated to specialist packages and tracked throughout the engagement window.
