“Human connection, leadership effectiveness, and sustained success aren’t earned by being ‘good enough.’ They’re developed through willingness—willingness to reflect, to challenge assumptions, and to grow.”
— Jill Bornstein
Executive leadership brings complexity, visibility, and consequence. As your coach, I work with you to strengthen how you think, decide, and lead as your scope and accountability increase.
I partner with experienced leaders and executives who are navigating growth, transition, or heightened responsibility—whether you are stepping into a broader role, leading through organizational change, or seeking to refine how you lead and influence at the senior level. Together, we design a personalized coaching engagement that supports clarity, disciplined action, and sustained leadership effectiveness.
This work is not about learning leadership fundamentals. It is about refining judgment, strengthening presence, and leading more intentionally—so your leadership consistently supports both performance and people.
Expanded leadership brings increased complexity, visibility, and consequence. Whether stepping into a new executive role, leading a larger scope, or navigating heightened expectations from boards and stakeholders, leaders at this level benefit from an experienced external thought partner.
Executive coaching provides a confidential space to sharpen judgment, strengthen presence, and clarify priorities as responsibility grows. I partner with executives to help them lead with clarity, influence, and resilience—especially when decisions carry meaningful impact for people, culture, and performance.
Leadership at this level shouldn’t be navigated alone.
Founders and owner-leaders face constant high-stakes decisions, growth demands, and sustained pressure. As organizations scale, the leadership required of the founder must evolve as well.
Executive coaching provides founders with a confidential space to think clearly, test assumptions, and strengthen how they lead as complexity increases. I partner with founders to help them sharpen judgment, clarify priorities, and build the leadership discipline needed to support growth—without losing what made the business successful in the first place.
Because leadership at this level benefits from space to reflect, challenge thinking, and lead with intention.
Extended pressure, organizational change, and leadership transitions can challenge even the most capable executives. When clarity fades or energy is depleted, leaders benefit from a confidential space to pause, reflect, and recalibrate.
Executive coaching supports leaders in navigating change with steadiness—strengthening judgment, restoring focus, and rebuilding leadership capacity over time. I partner with executives to help them lead with clarity, resilience, and intention through periods of transition and sustained demand.
Because sustainable leadership depends on the leader’s ability to think clearly, decide well, and lead with consistency.
At senior levels, emotional intelligence is not a soft skill—it is a critical leadership capability. It shapes how executives build trust, navigate conflict, make decisions under pressure, and lead others through change.
Executive coaching helps leaders strengthen emotional intelligence in practical, observable ways—improving self-awareness, empathy, communication, and relational judgment. I work with executives to deepen how they show up with others, lead through complexity, and create the conditions for sustained performance.
Because emotionally intelligent leadership directly impacts culture, execution, and results.
Assessments and feedback tools provide senior leaders with objective insight into how they show up, lead, and influence others—especially under pressure. Used thoughtfully, they create clarity around strengths, leadership risks, and opportunities for growth that directly impact performance, relationships, and culture.
I integrate assessments and feedback into coaching engagements to support self-awareness and informed development. These tools inform the work; they are not the work.
Assessment tools include:
Hogan Assessment Suite with Verbal 360 Feedback
GENOS Emotional Intelligence Assessment with 360 Feedback
Executive and Leadership Team Assessments
Verbal 360 Feedback Process
Each assessment is debriefed carefully and applied practically—supporting meaningful insight, disciplined action, and sustained leadership effectiveness.
Growth, change, and increased complexity place new demands on even the most experienced leaders. Competing priorities, evolving expectations, and organizational ambiguity can challenge clarity and decision-making.
Executive coaching provides leaders with a confidential space to think strategically, test assumptions, and strengthen judgment as complexity increases. I partner with leaders to help them navigate change with steadiness—clarifying priorities, aligning stakeholders, and leading with intention when the path forward is not always clear.
Professional coaching is a structured, confidential partnership that supports leaders in thinking more clearly, making better decisions, and leading more effectively as responsibility and complexity increase.
As an executive coach, I partner with leaders in a thought-provoking and reflective process that sharpens judgment, challenges assumptions, and supports intentional action. While the leader brings deep expertise in their role and organization, coaching creates space to step back, gain perspective, and work through challenges that are difficult to address alone.
Grounded in International Coaching Federation (ICF) principles, my approach treats leaders as capable, resourceful decision-makers. The work is not about providing answers, but about helping leaders use their experience, insight, and strengths more deliberately—so growth shows up in how they lead, decide, and influence others.
Individual coaching engagements typically range from three months to one year, depending on the leader’s goals, scope of responsibility, and the complexity of the leadership challenge. Each engagement is thoughtfully designed and personalized—allowing sufficient time for reflection, action, and meaningful, sustained change.
Executive leadership coaching provides senior leaders with a confidential, objective space to strengthen judgment, decision-making, and leadership effectiveness as responsibility and complexity increase.
At executive levels, performance is shaped not just by expertise, but by how leaders think, decide, communicate, and lead others under pressure. Coaching supports leaders in sharpening emotional intelligence, accountability, confidence, and decision-making—capabilities that directly impact culture, execution, and results.
As an experienced executive coach, I partner with leaders to help them use their strengths more deliberately, navigate challenges with clarity, and lead with greater intention. The work is not about learning leadership basics; it is about refining how leaders operate at the level where decisions carry meaningful business and human impact.
Executive coaching is grounded in active inquiry—thoughtful, open-ended questioning that encourages reflection, challenges assumptions, and supports disciplined action. This process helps leaders improve how they motivate teams, lead change, and achieve sustained organizational performance.
Senior leaders seek executive coaching because leadership at this level carries complexity, consequence, and isolation. An experienced external coach provides a confidential space to think clearly, challenge assumptions, and move important priorities forward more effectively than doing so alone.
While each coaching engagement is tailored to the individual leader and context, executive coaching often focuses on two interconnected areas:
Organizational & Leadership Effectiveness
Strengthening how leaders operate within their role and organization—clarifying priorities, improving decision-making, navigating scale and complexity, strengthening executive presence, managing stakeholder relationships, and leading strategically through growth or change.
Personal Leadership Capacity
Supporting leaders in sustaining effectiveness over time—addressing confidence, resilience, purpose, leadership identity, and the ability to lead with intention while managing pressure, responsibility, and long-term impact.
Executive coaching helps leaders integrate both dimensions, recognizing that how leaders think, decide, and show up personally directly shapes organizational performance, culture, and outcomes.
Yes. Many clients choose to combine individual executive coaching with executive team coaching or leadership workshops. This integrated approach allows leaders to strengthen their own effectiveness while also improving how their teams operate and perform together.
Combined engagements are intentionally designed around the leader, the team, and the organizational context. We work together to define priorities, scope, and timing—creating a customized plan that supports both individual leadership effectiveness and broader organizational impact.
This model is often used by CEOs and senior leaders who want alignment between how they lead personally and how leadership shows up across the organization.
The best way to begin is with a confidential conversation. This allows us to discuss your leadership context, priorities, and questions about my approach, pricing, and potential engagement options.
