How we work together

Individual Coaching

As your coach, I will support you on your journey of leadership, providing coaching that extends your thinking, deepens your reflection, while supporting you in your creation of individualized action steps that meet your objectives for professional and personal growth. Typically, your professional and personal goals are intertwined, as with leadership, your whole ideal self is worth bringing to the workplace, daily. 

I will work alongside you to extend your thinking, tapping into your inner wisdom and compass to help you identify your goals, realize your objectives, and to help you align your actions with your personal vision.

As your coach, we will determine if meeting weekly or every two weeks is best for you. I find that a solid coaching cycle consisting of 10-12 sessions is ideal to help you realize your goals. Together, we will create a plan and with each session, progressing forward, ensuring you are getting what you need along the way. We can always extend coaching to a maintenance level where we meet monthly to ensure your new habits and changes are fully integrated. Or, you may choose to call me when you need an on the spot reflection.

Embedded Coaching

Embedded coaching is an opportunity to take our one-to-one coaching relationship to your team, helping you explore patterns of behavior or challenges in real-time. Embedded coaching provides an organizational and systemic view for our collaborative approach to transformation. Perhaps you would like me to observe your administrative team dynamics, or your process of facilitation, or perhaps you’d like help in deciphering your 360 data to target and maximize for greater results.  Your agenda is my agenda. Embedded coaching provides for a wider circle and aperture for discovery.

Frequently, in my work with leaders, their goal to communicate the organizations shared values can be strengthened or stymied by the cultures in which they work. Perhaps there are conflicting values/norms from employees that is causing a tug of conflict and confusion? What are you saying to yourself about conflict? How would you like to “show up” at work, as a leader, as a colleague?

Group Coaching and Team Development

Teams that experience the greatest success are the teams who have clarity about their purpose, individually and collectively. They have trusting relationships that allow for collaborative innovation, proactive communication, and joy! Yes, joy in the workplace! Options to customize learning for your team are endless. I will work with you to explore your teams goals, determining how I may be of assistance. Perhaps an invitation to enhance a high functioning teams communication skills, or polishing your team dynamics for increased productivity and trust. The options are endless!

If you are looking for a comprehensive team experience, join me in a study of Positive Intelligence, using material by the author, Shirzad Chamine. In our work together, we will explore the three core mental muscles needed to thrive in challenging times. Together, we will sharpen the activation of your goals, while deepening your relationship with your colleagues. Sounds intense? It truly is quite an expansive learning experience. This is a seven week guided program which includes an online course, daily application using an app based mental fitness framework, followed by a facilitated weekly dialogue with your team to reflect on their learning. Results include increasing peak performance, productivity and well-being. Time commitment: 2.5 hours per week for seven weeks inclusive of independent learning, daily practice and weekly team meeting.

This course aligns with the core competencies of SEL (Social Emotional Learning) by integrating neuroscience, positive psychology, cognitive behavior psychology, and performance science. SEL enhances one’s capacity to assimilate skills, attitudes, and behaviors to deal effectively and ethically with daily tasks and challenges. Think of this course as SEL for leaders; we know physical fitness is central to good health and mental fitness is equally vital!
