Executive Coaching + Strategy Consulting
Strengths-based insight. Personal strategic planning. Customized productivity training.
Whether you’re a manager, sales professional, or business owner, executive coaching can offer effective solutions that will enhance clarity, focus, and productivity. The key component is the ability to understand your unique “talent DNA” and apply it to your daily actions. Performance is a function of aligning strategies, tactics, and everyday habits with your strengths blueprint.
Focused, insight-based energy works better than trial-and-error, one-size-fits-all methods. With the strengths framework as a guiding principle, there is a through-line that connects big-picture strategy and execution. Coherence between talent and tactics is the prerequisite for sustainable productivity.

Areas of Practice
Strengths coaching.
Strength-based coaching starts with the client taking the Values In Action and CliftonStrengths assessment tools. This becomes the starting point of the coaching conversation. This can be a one-time session, or a series of meetings with a specific time duration… depending on the goals or issues that need to be addressed.
It can range from career re-positioning, leadership coaching, to more specific areas like job performance, developmental, or sales/marketing coaching. Strengths coaching is a highly specific way of approaching (and managing) goals and personal change, Each person has a unique blueprint and a specific way of expressing these “energies” in real time. There is not one coaching template. Instead, the process is a combination of understanding the depth and texture of the client’s talent terrain, and how this manifests in one’s professional life.
Strategy development.
Once the strengths wiring diagram is firmly and dynamically internalized by the client, strategy assessment and formulation can begin. The result of this phase is to create a personal strategy map (reflective of the client’s unique strengths configuration) and a “field manual” to translate insight to focused execution.
Typically, there is a mutual agreement on key measures of success and a monitoring system to help the client in the change process. Strategy formulation includes application of systemic thinking and self-inquiry methods, using frameworks like the Theory of Constraints, and the Stages of Change Model (Prochaska).
Productivity training.
The training component reinforces the lessons learned in the previous “mapping” and strategy formulation phases. This learning stage focuses on, but are not limited to, knowledge acquisition (related to tools, technologies, techniques), personal task management, work flow assessments, habit formation, and applying the strengths insights learned to real life situations in one’s personal and professional life.
This is “ground level” training and practice under dynamic conditions. This requires weekly meetings as well as "hotline access” to coaching as needed. The goal is to develop a personal productivity system (and work process) that the client can depend on and use as a framework for sustainable creativity and performance.
“Knowledge is the source of wealth. Applied to tasks we already know, it becomes productivity. Applied to tasks that are new, it becomes innovation.”
