| Coaching effectively drives alignment.

Move your leaders to a new level of performance, one they won’t get to on their own. Coaching provides a framework to help leaders think differently about how they think, solve problems, make decision, and lead. Through coaching leaders discover their own insights that enable their success and the success of the organization.

Coaching provides a fresh perspective, alternative approaches and challenges their current beliefs, habits and thinking. Coaching creates a positive environment and structure for leaders to:

Identify key goals that will support their success and ability to drive necessary results
Challenge their assumptions and ‘default’ behaviors
See themselves differently through a mirror of others’ perspectives

Hear and see objective feedback and insights into how they are perceived by others.
Be held accountable for taking action and growing
Have consistency and dedicated time to focus on development and growth

We coach leaders and teams at every level of the organization. Whether you are preparing your next CEO, developing senior leaders or supporting a first-time leader, we bring a brain-friendly approach and extensive experience to provide the coaching necessary to ensure your leaders succeed.

// Coaching solutions.

// Developing and growing executives to lead their departments and lead the organization.

Executives are not only responsible for leading teams and departments, but for leading the entire organization. Often the skills and ways of working, leading, and interacting with people that gets executives promoted into senior level roles are not the same ones necessary to succeed in those roles. Executives find coaching supports them in aligning their strengths with the skills needed in their current role.

// Building the leadership capacity of leaders at all levels in the organization.

Customized one-on-one conversations promote self-awareness, personal insights that enable leaders to increase and expand their leadership capacity, and ultimately drive personal and professional success. Your organization will see the results when you enhance the potential of your leaders.

// A targeted approach to ensure leaders transitioning into executive roles can hit the ground running with minimal downtime and disruption.

A structured coaching program designed to help leaders succeed quicker as they transition into new roles with greater responsibility and scope. Anytime a leader transitions into a new role, there is a transition period in which performance is down, for both the leader and the team. This process helps new leaders and their team hit peak performance faster and more effectively, so that they can be fully leading and performing with minimal downtime.

// Building the effectiveness of teams through aligning around purpose & direction, while ensuring healthy interaction.

In team coaching, individuals develop and grow as leaders while the team develops and grows in its effectiveness and performance. Individuals benefit from 1:1 professional coaching while gaining the support, accountability, and feedback from their team. Simultaneously the team works on alignment around purpose, vision, strategy, goals, and on processes, roles and responsibilities, and communication strategies, all while building trust in themselves and the team. Teams find coaching supports them in aligning their strengths with the skills needed to participate fully and effectively in the team setting.
