Executive Coaching
The Core of Business Success is Your People
Your people are stressed. In all the years I have spent working with corporate talent, I can tell you that the way people are currently feeling the pressure at work is different and unsustainable. Individual contributors to middle managers, and from directors to the C-suite, no one is immune from the impact of this type of stress.
In fact, I bet you’re stressed too.
From worries about budget cuts and layoffs, to staff being asked to do more work with less resources, psychological safety is lacking in the workplace. You feel it, the team feels it, and the entire organization suffers as a result.
Coaching isn’t just a band-aid for these deep-rooted problems; coaching is a way to strategically and effectively diagnose and treat root causes to improve the overall climate in a way that has a meaningful impact on the future of your business.
According to research conducted by the International Coach Federation (ICF), companies that invest in coaching have an average return on investment (ROI) of 7 times the initial investment. This makes coaching an invaluable tool at every company’s disposal.
Coaching Across the Organization
Professional development comes in many different forms, including private one-on-one coaching with employees and leadership. No matter where your employees land on the org chart, they can all benefit from coaching in order to prioritize with confidence, communicate clearly with key stakeholders, manage overwhelm to feel more grounded, and gain invaluable tools that will serve them outside of the workplace as well.

For New Managers:
Navigating the change that comes with a new promotion often involves new relationship dynamics among the team, time management challenges, and work/life balance struggles. Coaching can help provide new managers with a strong foundation so that they can hit the ground running with good work habits that will only benefit the entire team in the long run.

Individual Contributors:
As a team of one, these folks have trouble understanding where they fit into the larger picture and operate in a silo. As a result, they often struggle with project management, communicating difficult messages, prioritizing their time, navigating work/life balance, and feeling connected to the overall organization. Coaching can provide individual contributors with a greater sense of how they fit into the community and make sure they are not overextending themselves.

For Middle Managers:
The biggest challenge facing most middle managers is figuring out how to manage up and manage down–they are often speaking two languages, and switching back and forth depending on who they are talking to, which gets exhausting. They are aware of the big picture strategy and are also influencing the front line team who will execute that strategy. Coaching will help them prioritize and balance these two ends of the spectrum, while also communicating with confidence.

For Directors & C-Suite:
The most senior leaders at organizations are often the last to ask for help. They feel immense pressure–between satisfying stakeholders, managing their time, and balancing work with personal life–it can lead to many sleepless nights, with little in the way of solutions. Working with a coach takes the burden off of your senior leaders to solve their own problems themselves. With dedicated time each week to address their most pressing issues, coaching can help executives at all levels feel more aligned with themselves and their organization.
Ready to take your leaders to the next level?
With Coaching, Your Team Can:
Operate With Clarity: Reframe the way employees or executives see themselves within the organization in order to move away from self-doubt. This enables the whole business to keep moving forward in a sustainable way.
Get Out of Their Own Way: Questioning around being deserving of your position is debilitating and more common than you might realize. By acknowledging strengths and being proud of accomplishments, both employees and executives can operate with confidence in order to perform at a higher level.
Communicate With Confidence: Effective communication is the key to effective leadership, but it starts with better self-talk. Learning how to reframe inner dialogue will have a trickle down effect on the team.
Find Balance Between Logic and Emotion: Too much logical thinking, and your team becomes robots. Too much emotion at work, and they’re seen as unhinged. Making sure your team has the tools they need to find the balance between these two extremes will allow them to become more effective.
Achieve Long-Lasting Results: Your team will gain valuable tools they need to approach problems that arise–now and in the future–with confidence.
