We coach our clients to discover, grow, take risks, create, and move to the next level.
Our certified coaches are business leaders that are deeply trained in helping you increase your self-awareness, regulate your emotions, get clear on your purpose, and align your life and business to what matters.
Our coaching process usually runs from 4 to 18 months - from Discovery to Blueprint for Action to Thrive and Sustain.
Our coaching program has three components:
Discovery: Building Self-Awareness
- We get to know you, your leadership style, your preferences, attitudes, strengths, areas for development, aspirations and goals for the coaching program
- We use a set of assessments, questionnaires, interviews if chosen, and optional work shadowing to develop a picture of your leadership style
- We create a "look in the mirror" that helps you deepen your self-awareness and understand the drivers (often hidden) for your successes and setbacks.
Design and Plan: Blueprint for Action
- Based on the business context and your roles, we help you get clear on your vision and desired outcomes for the coaching engagement
- We co-create with you a Blueprint for Action to increase your capacity, build new skills, let go of limiting patterns, and begin practicing new habits.
- Strategies, actions and mind & body practices are part of the whole-leader development plan
- Practice and growth begins - you develop effective skills, mindsets and neural pathways that become your new "default" patterns that lead to greater productivity, collaboration, connection and well-being.
Thrive and Sustain: Monthly Coaching Sessions
- In-person, phone or Skype sessions two times per month
- Structure, accountability and confidential feedback are what senior leaders need and rarely get
- You learn to become the witnessing observer to your own thoughts and actions, deepening your leadership skills and grounded presence
- Strategies and actions are created to keep you focused while navigating complexity, politics and uncertainty
- Email communication updates and check-ins during the entire process
- Learning materials support the developing of new mindsets and skills
Team Coaching
PurposeBlue seasoned coaches are expert facilitators and skilled team coaches.
- Intact Teams: We can uncover the dysfunctional team patterns that are blocking productivity and create breakthroughs in team dynamics. We use Appreciative Inquiry and Solutions-Focused Coaching methods to amplify what is working.
- Project Teams: we can ramp up new teams quickly, get alignment around vision and strategic goals, establish team norms, and let them hit the ground running.
- During times of transition or challenge, you can be a voice in the room and leave the coaching and facilitation to us.
