Make Change Positive
Make change a positive force in your life....
Leaders want to create positive, motivating environments when they are leading
change efforts. Over the last 20 years, I have worked with leaders from a variety
of Fortune 100 companies to create lasting change - through the coaching of
leaders as well as implementing comprehensive and sustaining change
programs and stakeholder strategies that directly contribute to strategy
implementation and the bottom line. As an experienced and seasoned
consultant, coach, speaker, facilitator and trainer, I have developed and delivered
change programs for over 1,000,000 employees over the last 20 years. I was
nominated for NJ Best 50 Women in Business in 2007.
I shifted my focus from full time project consulting work to coaching and
development programs. I completed the Georgetown Leadership Coaching
program in December of 2006 and am a certified professional coach in addition
to my degrees in psychology. I am a member of the International Coaching
Federation, and co-lead the Leadership Coaching special interest group for ICF
with HsuanHua Chang (www.coachseattle.com).
I partner with very talented management consultants, coaches and trainers to
bring comprehensive solutions to organizations of any type and size.
Client Needs
I work with executives and leaders who want to shift their relationships with
themselves, their colleagues, subordinates, clients and the perception of their
contexts. We work together in a trusted relationship to enhance his/her personal
power and resonant leadership style versus simply “working the political
environment”. These leaders are able to open their awareness, to see their path
from a broader point of view and therefore, leverage different opportunities that
are available.
We discuss and identify the leader's purpose, priorities and focus. Together we
assess and shift how to balance his / her attention and energy between the
mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects. I draw from many skills and
disciplines in a holistic approach – coaching, adult development, traditional
psychology, change leadership, emotional intelligence, brain / cognitive
research and traditional spiritual disciplines.
Benefits
This holistic approach enables a leader to be more effective by
- Being better equipped to support the goals of the organization and create
results
- Optimizing his/her talent to fully live in their leadership style and purpose
in life
- Deepening relationships with other leaders, peers and coworkers which
leads to better alignment and less politics
- Minimizing chaos and stress
Overall, life becomes easier for the leader and everyone around him/her
The leader is better able to
- Navigate complex situations
- Increase his/her ability to influence others
- Make more effective choices in the moment and
- Achieve improved results on many levels
