My Coaching Ethos & Approach

I am a certified ICF-trained Executive Leadership Coach from Georgetown's Institute for Transformational Leadership.

My approach to coaching is grounded in the wisdom of nature and based on the belief that you are a fundamentally whole, creative, intelligent, resourceful, and talented human being; highly knowledgeable about the nature of your own personal and professional development.

My primary role as your Coach is to draw out your wisdom through inquiry, curiosity, gentle provocations, and challenges that help you stretch into your best self as a leader.

To assist with your self-discovery process, I incorporate Nature's wisdoms (a.k.a. the wisdom of Life or Living Systems Principles) as metaphors by which to live and lead; offering new approaches, insights, and perspectives that may help you see, understand, and navigate today's increasingly complex world and to design a clear path through change to become a more effective leader and to achieve your personal and leadership goals.

I approach coaching with a holistic lens; attentive to the multiple dimensions of your inner ecosystem (physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual capabilities) as well as how your interior reality is expressed through your physical presence and behaviors (i.e. how you ‘show up’ for yourself and others).

I focus on the development of competencies that can help enable you to become more self-aware and be able to navigate your role, organization, and relationships in new ways; supporting you to create new results which include a greater sense of wellbeing, healthier relationships, and better performance.

Throughout our time together, I seek mutual understanding regarding the dynamics of your personal and organizational culture and the systems within which you live and work.

My role as your Coach is to coach your whole being and, therefore, may address personal issues or life conditions that have an impact on your professional effectiveness and your ability to shift from where / who you are to where you want to be and who you want to become.
