LEADERSHIP COACHING
“Leadership is an intense journey into yourself. You can use your own style to get anything done. It’s about being self-aware. Every morning, I look in the mirror and say, ‘I could have done three things better yesterday.’ ”
Executive and Leadership Coaching
Leaders while seen as visionaries can’t help but think outside “the box”. They have immense passion and place value on effecting positive change. Caring deeply about making a difference in their lifetime, leaders know that it all starts with taking responsibility - in their own lives, in their immediate family relationships and most importantly, in leading by example.
In the words of my extraordinary teacher and profound visionary, Dave Ellis, leadership begins with one’s ability to “self-reflect and self-direct”. One way to stay accountable and productive is to have a highly skilled and trained coach. Much of my work lies in “polishing up” a leader’s keen self-awareness and clear vision to stay their course.
“To me, there is nothing more rewarding or fulfilling than working beside a motivated client who has a big vision for themselves, as well as those around them and often, the planet at large.”
In my experience, leaders extend themselves far and wide in an effort to be of service to others and to organizations—for instance, sitting on several boards at once. Sadly and not uncommonly, this behavior of overextending can exhaust even the very best of them, leaving a powerful vision unrealized. Health and familial relationships also become depleted and out of balance.
As your coach, I will be sure to hold the vision that brings tears to your eyes and zip to your step while providing objective and clinical feedback as we shed commitments that are not aligned with your vision. Together, we will create powerful goals and realize dreams in a timely fashion.
It is crucial for a leader to take “charge” of their life, by recognizing their strengths, limitations and the impact of distractions from their path. This level of commitment and mindfulness is unique to many leaders’ who when they recognize they need reinforcement, hire a coach.
