It is a professional, trusted, confidential, and strategic partnership. At its best, executive coaching deepens the learning and forwards the action of the executive so that the process and the outcomes are practical, relevant, and actionable. Executive coaching illuminates the habits of thoughts that lead to patterns of action. Our focus is on both what gets accomplished and how it gets accomplished. My only agenda is your agenda and your success.”Coach Training/Credentials:• Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC), The Co-Active Institute• Certified Executive Coach (CEC), Center for Executive Coaching• Certified Strengths Coach, GallupCertified Assessment Practitioner:• The Leadership Circle 360 Profile• The Leadership Circle Collective Leadership Assessment• Gallup CliftonStrengths Assessment• EQ-i 2.0 Emotional Intelligence Assessment• iEQ9 Integrative Enneagram Personality Assessment
