Women in AEC: Wine After Work

Leading from the Top: Executive Performance, Reclaiming Your Time, and Building a Legacy


Listen Later

There's a version of leadership that looks good from the outside and feels like chaos on the inside. Corinne, founder of The Gav Group, has built her entire practice around helping C-Suite leaders close that gap. In this conversation, she and Bryce dig into what it actually means to perform at the executive level — not just deliver results, but lead in a way that builds something lasting.

Corinne's XTR framework — the Executive Table Read — is unlike anything in the traditional executive coaching world. It's a thought-partnership model designed for leaders who are already successful and ready to go further. This episode gets specific: how leaders lose time without realizing it, what it looks like to operate with certainty in a landscape that gives you none, and the moment most executives realize something has to change.

This one is for leaders at any level who feel like they're working harder than they should have to — and suspect the answer isn't more hours.

About Corinne: Corinne is the founder and CEO of The Gav Group and creator of the XTR (Executive Table Read), a thought-partnership model for C-Suite leaders. She works with executives to help them reclaim their time, gain a performance edge, and lead with more certainty in an uncertain corporate world. Her clients include leaders who are high performing by every external measure and ready to go deeper.

  • Legacy isn't what you leave behind — it's what you're building right now in how you lead your team

  • Time reclamation starts with knowing which decisions only you can make and which ones you're holding onto for the wrong reasons

  • The leaders who grow fastest are the ones willing to be honest about where they're stuck
