All professionals need a personal sounding board…another professional who has faced and conquered challenges, who can offer a different point of view, while cheering them on. Obviously, coaching is more than just another perspective — it’s an effective working relationship that provides clarity, motivation and nonjudgmental support to help you create the best game plan to achieve your goals — whether it’s the next leadership position, solving a specific business problem, creating more work-life balance or navigating a major career transition. With my combination of professional experience and a strong commitment to help you achieve your goals, I believe I’m the coach who can help make a difference in your professional and personal life.



What Makes a Great Executive Coach?

"The best coaches have internalized an understanding of business practices and organizational dynamics based on actual experience. They know what it’s like to meet, surpass or miss key business metrics and the consequences they can have on a manager, his/her employees and the organization. The outstanding coach knows how a client’s organization works and his/her role in the dynamics and politics of the organization."

Susan Ennis, Executive Coach
2003 Conference on Coaching for Business Results

The Coaching Process

The 1.2.1 executive coaching process is designed to help clients maximize their own performance as well as drive organizational goals. The process allows the client to create focus, identify specific goals and take the necessary steps to achieve targeted outcomes. The approach is based on support and feedback; self-awareness; strengthening leadership and communication skills and strategies that influence change.

Coaching is done on a customized one-on-one basis either in person, by telephone, via e-mail, or by some combination thereof. It's fully CONFIDENTIAL, giving you the opportunity to share your aspirations, highlight your accomplishments and objectively evaluate your choices.

Coaching engagements vary for each client, generally designed to be completed in 3-6 months. Coaching sessions typically happen three times per month with access to me, as needed, between sessions. An initial assessment of the client is created to evaluate and tailor coaching goals.

Coaching fees are determined on a project-by-project basis.
