Making more great leaders. That is the responsibility of every great leader.
But, if you’re interested in cementing your legacy, you’ll make those leaders even better than you.
I’ll quickly see, and leverage who you are at your best to improve you, while helping you learn (and actually come to be grateful for), who you are at your worst.
The way I work is built on really seeing your strengths: as a leader, a listener, and team-builder. We'll quickly address behaviors that both serve and don't serve you. As a licensed psychological clinician, a veteran creative and executive in advertising, marketing, and branding, a student of effective and ineffective leadership, and an experienced Executive Coach working all around the Fortune 500 (and a number of highly successful startups), identifying your superpower (and leveraging it) and your kryptonite (and allowing it to teach you) is what we’ll do right out of the gate. Though you will never be judged, you will absolutely be challenged. The goal is to empower the way you go about things, and it's done with both unflinching honesty, relentless support, and timely humor. I am not interested in provoking defensiveness, shame, anger, paralysis, or sadness. But if that's what it takes to get you into and out of the darkness, so be it, I’ve got a torch - and, pain is a useful teacher, though it does of course suck. Whatever has to happen, you’ll come away a much smarter leader, and a vastly better human to all the people who are ready for you to be just that.
Okay, why?
So you can work, live, connect, and succeed much more efficiently and effectively. Learning and laughing.
i believe the leader in you is also the corporate athlete in you
I studied and did applied research in how and when we second guess ourselves. By learning about what depletes and elevates our confidence, along with what gives us robs us of energy, I pioneered a method to coach, guide, and counsel clients to access and trust who they are when they Slow The F*ck Down (STFD) and quiet the negative self-talk. Step by step, we start connecting authenticity to one purposeful life experience after another. I do this many ways, though I'm often sought out for using physical activity and powerful conversation to provide poignant insights. It is this pursuit - and sense of fulfillment - that increases perspective and qualitatively alters trajectories. Whether you are an athlete, and even better if you believe you’re not, my experience is that you absolutely have physical + instinctive gifts, and together, we'll venture into a variety of environments that will reveal how you prevail, how you learn from mistakes, how you compete, who you are when present, and the techniques you use to execute when you're brimming with quiet, knowing confidence. From there, what we learn will be applied to other areas of your life. To boil it down: this work allows us to leverage your assets and grow from your deficits, whether we're talking about doing the job in your life or doing the job of your life.
