Executive Coaching

About Executive Coaching

​​

Let’s face it: finding a space where you can truly reflect on the complexities of your role as an executive is rare. Sharing these concerns with colleagues is challenging, and most executives hesitate to burden family or friends, often keeping their struggles private for months or even years.

 

Executive coaching changes that. It provides a safe, confidential environment where you can engage with a strategic partner and independent sounding board. Here, you’ll proactively assess yourself, develop and refine new skills, and enhance both your personal performance and that of your team. With executive coaching, you gain the clarity and support needed to drive your success and navigate challenges with confidence.

Leaders hire Joanne as an executive coach to:

​

  • Think and act more strategically

  • Increase time to productivity in a new role (OnBoarding)

  • Change personal behaviors and patterns that no longer serve you

  • Increase your leadership presence

  • Become ready for your next executive role

  • Help you attain the role of Department/Division Chair or Chief

​

Awareness, Understanding, and then Action

​

Awareness, Understanding, and then Action are the 3 Phases to Joanne’s signature coaching framework.  Using a variety of assessments, you'll first becomes aware of your strengths and obstacles to changing your desired behaviors, and then come to understand why and how those behaviors have impacted others and has served you well as a leader. Only then do we move to action, defining specific skills and behaviors that that you want to learn or change through coaching.
