Transformational Leadership Coaching
My Coaching Approach:
Transformational Leadership Coaching offers learning and growth that I believe is crucial for building vibrant, just and liberatory organizations, institutions, and movements. My coaching approach supports leaders in defining their vision, taking meaningful action, achieving goals and making real, lasting change. In our coaching relationship you have a confidential place to do some deep, personal reflection. I serve as a partner in making the changes you want by helping you stretch beyond habitual behaviors, mindsets and patterns. I prioritize clients’ values, culture, identities and history in order to support new insights into their strengths and talents and as well as limiting beliefs that may be affecting personal and/or professional growth.
Benefits of Transformational Leadership Coaching include:
Increasing alignment of leadership style with core values;
Shifting from transactional to transformational relationships;
Developing greater awareness of and expanding ability to metabolize feelings of fear, guilt, anger and transform emotional triggers, limiting beliefs and unproductive behaviors;
Developing greater racial resilience;
Replacing urgency with aligned action;
Setting and communicating expectations and boundaries clearly;
Providing constructive feedback, support and holding others accountable;
Managing stress and achieving greater work/life balance;
Addressing conflict productively.
