Leadership Coaching ⛰️

“Management is ensuring people’s work is done well. Leadership is ensuring people can do, and want to do, their work well when you’re not there.”

— Mentor

What is “coaching”? 💡

Coaching is us partnering together in thought-provoking and creative process that empowers you to rectify situational / strategic challenges and inspires you to create what you want.

Your personal success is the focus of attention.

I help you uncover root obstacles and challenge you to experiment your way forward.

You envision who & where you want to be, establish where you’re at now, consider challenges I pose from any blind spots or limiting beliefs I observe, and then your inner intelligence naturally unlocks answers inside to create actions & experiments to go where you want to go.

I’ll help you reflect and learn along the way to ensure the impact of your actions are aligned to your vision - and if not, guide you to course correct or revisit your vision and values.

Questions we’ll ask

What are your values?

What’s your intention?

What’re you choosing to do?

What’s the impact of those choices?

Given all of the above, what are you learning?

This is for you if

✅ You have stepped into a leadership role (front line to executive) and you feel overwhelmed

✅ You fear that you’re going to mess up your direct reports’ lives

✅ You don’t know your leadership style

✅ You have no idea how to manage managers who report to you

✅ You have a hard time with difficult conversations

✅ You don’t have a vision and mission for your team

✅ You find it difficult to speak your truth to your team, peers, and exec teams

✅ You have a hard time making progress with your agenda

This isn’t for you if

❌ You’re exclusively seeking training in leadership skills

❌ You are seeking a consultant who will tell you how you should lead

❌ You are disinterested in learning and growing

❌ You’re ‘too busy’ to attempt the homework that you assign yourself during our sessions

❌ You are seeking a therapist or counselor to heal the wounds of your past or to address a chronic situation like depression

1:1 coaching

Free Intro Session (for Monthly Subscription): We partner within a 60-minute conversation to understand what you really want and what’s getting in the way of getting what you want.

Coaching Packages: You choose between a 6 session or 12 session package. These create a cadence of accountability as you strive to realize your goals.

Cadence: I recommend a twice per month cadence. I ask you to choose fixed days/times for 2 60-minute sessions per month. I’m open to discussing other arrangements as they make sense.

Support:

Choosing experiments – Coaching sessions plant seeds. What happens in between the sessions is what makes those seeds grow. We’ll set up some specific experiments at the end of each session. I’ll follow up on those experiments between sessions to see what’s working, what’s not, and what can be tweaked. (I prefer the term experiment as there’s no failure coming out of experimentation, just more knowledge about the self.)
Checking in between sessions – I’ll check in with you in the way that works best for you every couple of weeks unless you prefer to communicate more often. I’ll respond to your email or text within a business week.
Sending Resources – Upon request I’ll provide resources – articles, books, podcasts, videos – that help you reinforce the wisdom you unlock during our sessions.

Ad Hoc Coaching: This allows you to work with me on a session by session basis. You will receive a 60-minute session and a monthly check-in. (I offer ad hoc coaching to those who have engaged with at least a 6-session package .)
