Leadership · Teams · Operations
Greater Than One helps organizations develop leaders, design learning experiences, facilitate better teamwork, and strengthen the operational systems that hold it all together.
Six areas of practice. Most engagements draw on two or three.
Cohort programs, manager development, feedback, influence, and decision-making.
Curriculum, facilitator guides, workbooks, onboarding, and blended learning.
Offsites, retreats, strategic conversations, and experiential development.
Dashboards, measurement, AI-enabled workflows, and platform support.
Facilitators, lifeguards, instructors, high ropes staff, and course inspectors.
Process design, operational planning, and hands-on consulting for problems that live outside the training room.
Our approach
What you need from Greater Than One changes as you grow — facilitation and leadership development early on, organizational development as complexity increases, operational and technical systems at scale. Some engagements are led directly by Jose Sierra; others draw on trusted collaborators across facilitation, instructional design, analytics, technology, and operations. The goal stays the same: bring the right people to the work.
Selected work
A sample of the work — leadership programs, operational consulting, and technical program support — shaped to fit each organization's context.
Regional healthcare system
Designed and facilitated a six-month leadership program for first-time managers across nursing, operations, and support teams — with practical coaching labs, peer learning, and tools managers could use the week after each session.
Municipal parks & recreation
Provided Red Cross-certified lifeguard instruction and on-deck staffing support for a public aquatics program preparing for peak season — so the department could open pools on schedule without over-hiring permanent staff.
Growth-stage technology company
Helped a leadership team clarify decision rights, redesign core workflows, and align cross-functional handoffs as the organization scaled — turning recurring operational friction into clearer systems people could actually follow.
Specialized support
Qualified facilitators and technical staff so your programs run safely and confidently, without adding permanent headcount.
Technical staffing & training →Experienced facilitators for workshops, retreats, and multi-day programs.
Red Cross lifeguard instruction, staff readiness, and partner-hosted classes.
Facilitators, belayers, high ropes staff, and course inspection support.
Strengthen internal facilitators through practice, feedback, and standards.
A leadership program, a facilitated offsite, a learning experience, or technical program staff. We'll help shape the right next step.
