Most growing businesses hit a ceiling not because of strategy, but because their managers cannot execute it. HI-MAP solves this by developing the management layer between the CEO and the front line.

What Is HI-MAP?

HI-MAP (High-Impact Management Acceleration Program) is a structured development process for mid-level managers. It bridges the gap between strategic vision and operational execution by building management capabilities from within.

Unlike generic leadership training, HI-MAP works with your actual management team on your real business challenges. Each participant brings live issues, and the program provides frameworks, peer feedback, and coaching to resolve them.

Who Needs HI-MAP?

  • Companies where the CEO is still the primary decision-maker for operational issues
  • Organizations with 4-10 managers who need to align on priorities and standards
  • Businesses where strategy execution stalls at the management layer
  • Leadership teams preparing for scaling or succession

The HI-MAP Process

The program runs over 3-6 months with biweekly sessions. Each session follows a structured format:

  • Management diagnostics – assess each manager’s strengths and gaps using DISC profiles and 360-degree feedback
  • Skill modules – targeted training on delegation, performance management, conflict resolution, and decision-making
  • Live problem-solving – managers bring real challenges and receive structured peer feedback
  • Accountability tracking – commitments are documented and reviewed in each session
  • CEO debriefs – the CEO receives regular updates on management progress and systemic issues

Key Outcomes

  • Managers who make decisions independently within their authority
  • A management team that speaks one language and shares priorities
  • Reduced CEO bottleneck – faster execution across the organization
  • Clear delegation framework with defined authority levels
  • Improved retention of key managers through investment in their growth

How HI-MAP Fits with Other TAB Israel Programs

HI-MAP is designed to complement strategic planning and peer advisory boards. While the board helps the CEO set direction, HI-MAP ensures the management team can execute it.

Companies that combine all three programs – board, strategy, and management development – typically see the fastest acceleration in execution capability.

Case Study: Management Layer Development

A technology company with 80 employees and a management team of 6 went through the HI-MAP program over 4 months. The CEO had been personally approving all decisions above 50,000 NIS. After the program:

  • Decision authority was delegated to managers within clear thresholds
  • The CEO’s operational involvement dropped by 60%
  • Two managers were promoted to expanded roles
  • Time-to-decision on operational issues dropped from 2 weeks to 3 days

Start Developing Your Management Team

If your managers are waiting for your decisions instead of making their own, the bottleneck is in the management layer – not in your strategy. HI-MAP provides the structured development process to change that.

Schedule a consultation to assess whether HI-MAP fits your organization’s needs.
