Executive Coaching

Our coaching services deliver measurable business results.
We coach leaders to lead more powerfully, managers to manage more effectively and executives to build their emotional intelligence.

In doing so, we proactively build your company’s bench strength.

So whether you are seeking to improve an executive’s performance, facilitate talent development of high potentials or are looking to more effectively deliver on business objectives and bottom-line organizational results—we encourage you to consider executive coaching.

We have a proven track record of increasing leader, team and organizational performance through a wide variety of applications. They include assessment and assumption challenging, change technology, 360 debriefing, gap analysis, interpretation, insight and development, systems theory and ontological philosophy.

Our intention is that you exponentially increase the trajectory of your success.

We gather data, use assessment tools, set new performance standards and coach from multiple approaches to challenge your current beliefs, assumptions, perspectives, moods and attitudes. Throughout, metrics are used to measure performance and increase accountability.

We keep business results and human processes linked, move conversations from the global to the specific and are able to support as well as challenge our clients. Our coaching impacts both client and organization.

“As a senior executive working for a global organization I sought out Jody because I wanted to enhance several aspects of my professional life. Our work together has been extremely rewarding on multiple fronts and the results – have completely exceeded all my expectations.
Jody is an experienced coach with all appropriate certifications and tools in her tool kit but I think what I have found to be most useful is her vast array of corporate and leadership experience from which she can draw. For me it was helpful that I did not have to spend a lot of extra time explaining background on various situations, political dynamics, organizational issues etc. because she got it and she got it very quickly. This allowed us to get right to the high-value conversations.
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Jody and am pleased to provide her with my highest recommendation for both corporate engagements and one-on-one executive coaching.”
