Leadership Coaching

“Nothing so conclusively proves a person’s ability to lead others as what they do from day to day to lead themselves.”
--Thomas J. Watson

“Management is efficiency in climbing the ladder of success; leadership determines whether the ladder is leaning against the right wall.”
--Stephen R. Covey

Leadership is both exhilarating and excruciating. It’s filled with the adrenaline rush of engaging in something bigger than yourself that fuels life long changes. Every project, organization, or team depends on effective leadership. It makes the difference.

But it’s also frequently lonely, difficult and stressful. There are tough choices to make and consequences to face. And sometimes we suddenly discover that we’re no longer doing the “thing” that energized us initially. We’ve become supervisors where we simply maintain the status quo and keep things running. We aren’t always understood, we become weary of dealing with people who don’t get it, and we’re too tired to muster up more vision.

But what a difference when someone feels empowered to truly lead—to create a vision of a preferred future and to figure out how to purposefully hire and build and motivate a team to move along a strategic time-line in order to bring out the potential in everyone.

The truth is that our leadership approaches are unique and understanding what type of a leader you are and what management areas most energize you will help us create a customized plan for developing your leadership as opposed to simply throwing general leadership principles at you. You can read a book for that! What you’re looking for is someone who has coached and taught hundreds of leaders by listening to their challenges and strengths and developing a plan that excites their ambition. Someone who can be a listening ear, a sounding board, a cheerleader, a resource and voice that asks the right questions and helps hold you accountable to your potential.

Small Business Owners: Perhaps you’ve started your own business but need some clarifying help in determining where to go next? Are you doing the part of the business that energizes you most or is it time to delegate? Are you maximizing your earning potential? Do you know what your long-terms plans are? Do you know how to evaluate your entire company or business plan? Are you hiring people who take ownership of your dreams? Most significantly, are you taking care of yourself?

Team Managers: Whether you are looking for the promotion or just received it, the truth is that while you feel the leadership potential it takes clarity, focus and wisdom to know how to proceed in a way that not only impresses your boss, but also your entire team. Are you confident what you’re looking for when you hire? Are you empowering those that report to you? Are you prepared to handle conflict? Are you being strategic in how you lead team meetings and employee evaluations? Are you equipped to lead with your strengths and your team’s strengths?

Executive Leaders: I’ve found that many successful leaders appreciate having a coach who can be a confidential sounding board to talk through board meeting approaches, team hiring and firing, ethical issues and personal growth areas. Leadership can be isolating and the pressure is intense. Do you need a safe place to brainstorm? Do you have methods in place to measure your effectiveness? Are you living at a sustainable pace or might there be some changes that can fuel your family, health, personal spirituality, recreation time, etc.? Do you feel like what you’re doing is making a difference? Are you leaving the legacy you desire?
