Coaching
I have been doing individual and group coaching for more than 30 years. Contact me if you are seeking someone to help push you and/or your organization to go from good to great, better to best.
I am thorough in my research and my engagement with you, as we get to know one another, set up an effective coaching process, clarify expectations, identify issues and concerns, come to greater awareness of your current situation, identify values and motivations, and gain a clearer vision for the future—where you want to be. Together, we will explore your passions, strengths, and resources, developing strategies to use these to achieve your goals. We will also identify obstacles to that achievement, creating effective plans for overcoming them as well as how to commit to taking action and stay the course for the long haul.
I have developed and utilize a variety of assessments to assist you on this journey. I also read widely on a variety of subjects and have archived articles that can assist you in flourishing, becoming more resilient, habit formation, healthy leadership, self-care, and a host of other topics.
“Thank you SO SO much for our conversation this week. You helped me so much! You were a really good listener, affirmed me, and were honest and realistic (didn’t offer me platitudes). But then you pointed to the good things that are happening and what is hopeful. I never felt like you ran over my feelings. It all helped so much.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your work with me, your encouragement, and direction. I truly appreciate you!”
