Leadership coaching and executive advising require listening to what is emerging for you as a leader. As your guide, my role is to help co-create a clear path forward with you toward your leadership goals and objectives.
That sounds great, but what is it again?
I have to admit; I’m a bit of a cluttery person. Years ago, I would watch shows and read blogs that would help people organize their homes, and I would follow those techniques. About once a month, everything in my house would be put away. These solutions worked well for a single woman in a studio apartment or as a newlywed before kids.
Now that I have four children, a cat and a dog, this doesn’t happen anymore. The techniques didn’t change; the volume and the factors did.
The world we live in no longer has easy solutions. There aren’t five simple steps to anything anymore; in fact, there are so many factors that leaders everywhere are overwhelmed and exhausted. Motivation is at an all-time low, and decision fatigue is at an all-time high. What used to work no longer does.
What I do as a leadership coach is to be your eyes and ears when you are overwhelmed. In coaching, we will face your most significant challenges together. We will dig into the complex issues by asking questions and looking at the problem from all sides. Ultimately, we will have actionable steps and a solid accountability process to ensure progress.
You don’t have to do this alone. Think of me as your best friend from High School who would come over and talk to you while you cleaned your room. What seems like an impossible task is always better with a friend. Feel free to get on my calendar so we can talk through your specific needs.
