Experience
I am a business leader. I understand the issues and challenges facing business because I’ve been there and bring diverse perspectives and the wisdom of corporate, organizational and entrepreneurial experience to coaching and consulting. I match my business experience with coaching experience gained over hundreds of hours with hundreds of clients around the world, and I bring the learning gained from every engagement to benefit the next.
Expertise
I bring strong educational and professional background to my work and in addition I have completed several accredited coach training programs to ensure top level coaching competency.
Proven Process
My success is predicated on having a proven process for implementation of a coaching and consulting initiative no matter how large or focused.
- Operate on a frequency model – the more often coach and client meet, the greater the momentum and the more rapid the behaviour change and/or goal accomplishment.
- Collect information. In addition to an intake process (comprised of quantitative assessments and qualitative feedback solicitation) I examine any other performance and evaluation data available to ensure we have as complete a picture as possible.
- Triangulate the coach/client/organization relationships. I understand that my work with an individual is done in an organizational context and we contract on that basis.
- Measure the effectiveness of my work, in terms relevant to the client and the organization.
- Solicit feedback to ensure we learn and improve along with our clients.
