Coaching

Executive Leadership, Team, & Group Coaching

An effective way to take time out for reflection is partnering with a coach. Going through the reflective process alone can be challenging because when we are in our own experience, it is difficult to step outside of that experience and see ourselves and our actions objectively. As your coach, being external to your experience, I have a distinct vantage point from which to facilitate your reflective process. By listening and asking discerning questions, I take you to the next level in your thinking, help you discover where to go next, and explore with you the significance of your learning.

As your coach, I will help you achieve your goals and tackle your challenges at different points in your professional and personal life:

  • As part of your professional development: becoming a more effective leader
  • In your career aspirations: getting a new job or promotion
  • In your personal development: building on strengths, overcoming limiting beliefs
  • To create a life of purpose and fulfillment

Coaching involves self-discovery and self-reflection through assessments and coaching conversations, learning new tools and techniques, creating and implementing action plans, completing homework assignments, and being accountable for outcomes. You will complete assessment tools that help you learn about yourself on a deeper level. As a result, “aha” moments may occur, “Now I understand why I . . . !“ These tools will assess your personality type, communication style, and level of emotional intelligence and help both of us learn about the growth opportunities you would like to explore.

Coaching is an iterative and cumulative process that allows you to gain insight, become more self-aware and more aware of your environment, discern, integrate new learning, acquire new skills, and put a plan into action to practice those skills. It is part of your personal and professional growth and development. As your coach, I am here to facilitate this process and ask the most pertinent questions at the most opportune times, show you a mirror and reflect back to you, challenge and inspire you, and celebrate your successes with you.
