PERSONAL AND EXECUTIVE COACHING

As a Personal Coach, I help people figure out and live their dreams. As an Executive Coach, I help people move to the next level in their work, while having a great personal life. I help teams blend their talents and reach their goals effortlessly.

Here are a few of the reasons actual people have given for hiring me:

Personal Coaching:

• A mother who couldn't communicate with a teenaged daughter
• A woman who felt she was shy and a poor communicator
• A man who wanted to contribute more, but didn't know how or where
• A woman who felt unfulfilled

Executive Coaching:

• VP - had trouble communicating with CEO
• Entrepreneur - overwhelmed by volume of work
• Lawyer - wanted to increase productivity and profits
• Manager - got results but was called "abusive" by subordinates
• Director of non-profit – worked too long, home life suffered
• College administrator - wanted to transition to another job

Coaching provides:

• support
• focus
• clarity
• new skills
• relief
• resources
• fresh views
• accountability
• nudges
• opportunity to increase personal mastery significantly

Coaching Arrangements

My coaching is very individualized. Most of it happens on the phone, in 30-45 minute sessions, 2-4 times/month. I like to do an initial assessment, talk with you about the goals of coaching and propose a coaching plan.  This may include in-person sessions, interviews with colleagues and reports, my attending meetings you lead, reading and discussing pertinent material and other activities leading to the agreed-on goals.  Call me to talk about pricing.
