Leadership Coaching
I have been in leadership positions for over 30 years and I have experienced the power of positive, effective leadership within trusting, collaborative teams and the power of negative, ineffective leadership within teams that are unable to collaborate within a power dynamic that is toxic. The ability to lead your own life is a necessary condition before you are able to lead a team, an organization or any movement outside of yourself.
Leadership requires a deep understanding of your core beliefs, the ability to create the space for others to experience their own growth in a safe environment, the ability to be present in the experience of authentic listening, and to have the courage to stand on your truths and convictions, fearlessly. The mantra, "To Thine Own Self Be True" has been my guiding compass. As a leadership coach, my intention is to support your unique leadership journey that only you can discover and put into practice in your daily life and work.
Appreciative Inquiry
​ Appreciative Inquiry (AI) is an approach to organization and personal change that has been used successfully in small and large change projects at the organizational and personal growth levels worldwide. It is based on the simple idea that organizations and people move in the direction of what they ask questions about.
Deliberately asked positive questions ignite constructive dialogue and inspired action within organizations and in the personal development process of intentional change.
The 4D cycle of change is guided by Discover, Dream, Design, and Destiny with guided, positive inquiry that is the foundation to positive outcomes and success.
During the process of systemic, organizational change and personal development, this inquiry is a strengths-based model that is not focused on what may be considered to be "broken" but rather, what is the best of "what is" currently within the organization and/or the individual. Consultation services are provided at the organization and/or individual level for sustainable, positive growth.
EQi2 assessments
​ The Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0) is the world’s leading measure of emotional intelligence, applying decades of research to support effective human performance and development. The EQ-i 2.0 is an online self-rating assessment tool, with the option of adding a multi-rater EQ 360.
​ The EQ-i 2.0 is an excellent way to get a picture of how you operate emotionally, your areas of strength and potential areas for development. This assessment is just one of the tools that may be helpful in developing your EQ competencies and leadership abilities on an individual and/or organizational level.
