Leadership Development - You need to provide your leader/manager with a transformational growth and development opportunity: Your strong and valued leader may be very effective overall; yet, you have identified 1 or 2 areas that would benefit or require development. For example, they may do a great job achieving goals but need to soften their edges with people; or they may be great people leaders but lack the influence, confidence, or presence to drive stronger results. There are many capabilities and competencies that we develop with leaders to grow their effectiveness overall.
THE ENERGY COACH APPROACH
Through a combination of discussion, reflection, exercises, and tools, clients gain new insight and apply it for immediate application. Coaching is an excellent development choice because it is personal, custom, and supports the client over time.
The coaching sessions are built on accountability and self-awareness for optimal results. We help people understand what the critical "ask" is from their manager, their team, and their organization in order to calibrate their mindset for alignment around their performance objectives.
We work with various industry leaders in the non-profit, government, start-up, and private sectors.
