FLASHLIGHT THINKING
Are you the right coach for me?
For over ten years in my executive leadership roles, I’ve been a coach, confidante, advisor, and sounding board to many leaders. I listen to you, reflect back who you are, and believe you are enough - you just can't see it yet.
I am the right coach for you if you want to critically think, take ownership for yourself, and take action.
What is coaching?
-
Coaching is a collaborative relationship between a certified coach and a client designed to grow your full potential. Just as athletes wouldn’t consider training without the added insight, objective perspective, and support of an athletic coach, many of today’s most successful leaders, professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and corporate professionals depend upon the skills of a coach to move their lives, careers, and businesses to the next level.
-
If there is a gap between where you are now and where you want to be, there is room for life coaching. Not only will your coach help you close the gap, your coach will help you break through your assumptions, interpretations, and limiting beliefs, challenging you to think bigger.
-
A coach will hold you accountable, using a strengths-focus to unlock your potential.
-
A coaching session is results-oriented, challenging you to achieve outer goals while also undergoing internal transformation.
-
A coach will help you to create strategies & action plans that ask you to accomplish more than you could do on your own.
-
A coach will provide tools, encouragement, and guidance, allowing you to produce more results than before.
“Part consultant, part motivational speaker, part therapist and part rent-a-friend, coaches work with managers, entrepreneurs, and just plain folks, helping them define and achieve their goals—career, personal, or most often, both.” —Newsweek
