Strategic Coaching for Leaders Navigating High-Stakes Transitions
Don't Let Your Reputation for Reliability Stall Your Career Trajectory
You're the leader the organization trusts with high-stakes mandates - the turnarounds, the strategic pivots, and the heavy lifts. But being the "safe pair of hands" comes
with a cost.
THE INFLUENCE TRAP: the toolkit that earned you success is being challenged by new levels of organizational complexity.
THE REPUTATION TRAP: You're being tapped for assignments based on your reliability, not your goals - pigeonholing you into roles that you've already outgrown.
THE STAGNATION TRAP: You're driving your organization's success, but your own professional legacy has stalled.
You've mastered the assignments. Now let's master your next move.
I help leaders take command of their professional evolution.
It's easy to get caught up in strategic mandates and lose
sight of your own trajectory. I'll partner with you to
help you pull back from the daily fire drills and get intentional about your legacy.
Together we'll design your journey - from architecting a
high-stakes career pivot to mastering the first 100 days
of a new assignment.
As your coach, I'll help you build the skills and strategies
to leverage your political capital, amplify your influence
and ensure that your next move isn't just a change in
title - but a legacy defining success.
You've spent years navigating the organization's goals. Now, let's partner on yours.
My Story
On paper, I had it all: I'd achieved a good amount of success. I had a seat at the table, a team I respected at a company
I genuinely cared about. But, I hit a point where this level of success felt like a plateau. I wanted to take my career in
a new direction, yet I felt stuck. I worried that being honest about my ambitions would look like disloyalty, or
worse, damage the relationships I'd spent years building
with my leadership team.
I realized I was treating my career ambitions like a secret,
that I couldn't share, rather than a strategy to be managed.
The shift happened when I stopped viewing my goals
as an "exit" and started viewing them as a strategic realignment. With the help of my own coach, I learned
how to have the "uncomfortable" conversations - the ones
we usually avoid. I laid out a vision that honored
the contributions I had already made, while being clear
about my future trajectory. Being transparent didn't
burn bridges - it built a stronger one to my next chapter.
Now, I help leaders get clarity about their career direction
and build the skills and strategies to reach their goals
- whether it's a pivot in their current company or a
full-blown executive search.
A Strategic partnership for your next chapter.
CLARIFY YOUR VISION: We'll start by cutting through the noise of your daily fire drills to help you get clarity on what you want from your next chapter of leadership. We'll chart a path that aligns your professional impact with your personal goals.
BUILD THE BRIDGE: Once we craft a vision, we focus on the "how". This might mean sharpening the high-level influence skills needed for the next seat, or developing a sophisticated go-to market strategy for a discreet executive-level job search.
SECURE YOUR LEGACY: Our partnership doesn't end when you accept a new assignment, or sign an offer letter. We'll plan for and work through the critical first 100 days of your new assignment, ensuring you navigate the transition with confidence and build a track record for long-term success.
There is no one-size-fits-all roadmap for leadership. Every coaching engagement is bespoke, built around your unique goals and the demands of your next move.
How We Work Together
Let's start with a conversation
Your next move is too important for a generic approach. Let's schedule a brief, confidential strategy call to discuss where you are, where you are feeling stuck, and how a coaching partnership can enable you to break through your current ceiling.
