Elevate your game with Leadership and Executive Coaching
Are you a leader looking for targeted support to help you grow, get to the next level, become more effective, or feel more engaged in your work? Or, maybe you're an HR partner or Executive that sees immense potential in a leader at your organization who just needs and extra push to maximize his or her strength.

You'll gain insight and awareness on how to best leverage your strengths, address your blind spots, and enhance your overall leadership effectiveness. And, our Coaching is customized to be most effective within the context of your business environment and culture.
Our Coaching includes:

Feedback collection and assessments where valuable and relevant
-
Ongoing touch points in between sessions for ad hoc support
-
Engagement of key stakeholders throughout the process
How it works:
-
Introduction/Intake – We begin with an initial session to assess your current opportunities and challenges, define the scope of the relationship, identify priorities for action, and establish specific desired outcomes.
-
Discovery/Assessment – We will together determine the best way to collect additional input into your areas of growth and opportunity. This can be done through personal assessments, as well as stakeholder interviews or an online 360. This helps create our coaching goals and actionable strategies, and provides a method for evaluating progress.
-
Goal Setting/Coaching – Together, we’ll set goals and work to achieve them through conversation, inquiry, assignments, observation and direct feedback, and other tools and techniques to support your thinking and actions.
-
Wrap-up – At the end of the engagement, we’ll evaluate progress and work together to craft a plan forward.
Coaching approach:
My philosophy is that coaching is a personal change journey that happens within a professional context. However, it’s not always huge transformation that is needed – most of the time, it’s the small changes that have the biggest impact. As we work together, we’ll dig deep into challenges and opportunities, while also using practical tools, approaches and techniques to make progress.
-
Style: My coaching is all about action and progress, while using reflection and insight for lasting change. I am both supportive and direct in observation and feedback, and I adapt my style to your needs. As part of the intake process, we will determine what you need from me as a coach, and I will ask you for ongoing feedback throughout our partnership.
-
Target audience: I work across age, tenure and level, with leaders who are high-potential (looking for general leadership growth), key talent (working on 1-2 targeted skill areas to become more effective), or in transition (new to the organization, in a new role). My sweet spot is working with first time senior leaders new to their senior-level roles.
-
Coaching partnership: Coaching is a partnership between the coach, client, and organization. While the client is the primary stakeholder, the organization is just as important in a successful coaching engagement. I work with both the manager and coaching sponsor (often HR or an Executive) to best develop and support you for ongoing success.
