Success Coaching

I have experience coaching junior, mid and executive level employees, as well as small business owners.  I am particularly passionate about coaching junior and mid-level team members as they start their climb and begin their people management roles.  Although internal mentoring has traditionally been the ‘coaching channel’ for employees at these levels, post-pandemic time constraints and the volunteer nature of internal mentoring are weakening the effectiveness of such programs.  Outside coaching for junior and mid-level employees provides timely feedback that can more quickly address obstacles and expedite progression toward goals…increasing the pace at which competent leaders are developed.

Women today continue to face discriminatory actions on jobsites and in office settings.  In my personal experience, rarely was I comfortable discussing these discouraging actions with even the most well-intentioned bosses, co-workers, or HR representatives due to anticipated backlash from the offender(s).  Some people believe that these instances are far and few between as we enter 2023, but they are wrong.  I have coached females facing these struggles, as well as male leaders wanting to effectively react and resolve these situations for and with their female employees multiple times in 2022. I tell you this to encourage you to hire an outside coach, a woman who has / can relate to their experiences that is able to offer guidance that is confidential, and solution based.  Reach out so that we can discuss how you can make this coaching available to your valued team members.

The first step of my process involves getting to know you.  Your strengths, accomplishments, struggles and setbacks so that together we can develop a plan that allows you to reach your goals and achieve your career aspirations.  During the journey we will uncover what drives you and sets you apart so that you can capitalize on those traits to overcome the presumed or real obstacles holding you back.  I will also help you to develop the self-awareness required to overcome ways in which you may be holding yourself back, as well as communication skills required to successfully address adversity and / or unconscious bias from others in work situations. 

During my 30+ years as a woman in a strongly male dominated industry I faced adversity, and achieved success, at each rung of the ladder.  My experience includes 25+ years of managing teams and coaching individuals to become the best they can be for themselves and their organizations.  The roles throughout my career have included working boots-on-the-ground on construction jobsites, expeditiously in pre-construction bid rooms, collaboratively in design charrettes and persuasively in boardrooms…all with a steadfast desire for growth and opportunity for all.
