How I coach

My Approach

I work with you when you want to make a big professional change, like starting a new business, taking your established business to the next level, finding a new job or career, or increasing your success in your current organization.  Sometimes you might not know how you want to change - you just know that you don't like your current situation, and that's ok too. 

My approach to coaching integrates sound business strategy and insightful psychological models.  Typically we start our coaching relationship by discussing your goals and outlining your strategy for success.  However, if success was just about writing a plan and following it, you wouldn't need a coach.

Usually once you've decided on a course of action, you can follow your plan for a short period of time, but then life gets in the way.  Very quickly, we will delve into the obstacles you are facing and what it will take to overcome them.  This will include sharing exercises and techniques you can apply to daily situations, and supporting you as you progress.  I strongly believe that personal growth is key to successful professional change, and the topics I cover range from strategy, business processes, and effective communication to dealing with procrastination, challenging relationships, and fear.   Typically I introduce topics and exercises as they become relevant to your situation, but you always have the final say on the agenda and direction of our work together.
