Thoughts on leadership and my journey with coaching
20 years of executive leadership has shown me that leadership is a wonderful journey; rewarding, fulfilling but difficult, exacting and at times lonely. Being a leader requires a great support network around you - a pit crew - and coaching is one vital part of that crew.
A few things to know about my coaching style:
I build strong, supportive relationships based on trust and partnership. I listen well and take a genuine interest in the people I work with.
I am genuinely invested in supporting you as a leader and enthusiastic about your development. My aim is to support you to achieve your goals.
I’m still learning. I’m still developing my leadership, honing my management skills and investing in the art of executive coaching.
