Leadership Coaching is not mentorship.

It’s not strategic planning, giving advice, or drafting lengthy “to-do” lists. As your steadfast supporter, the Coach meets you exactly where you’re at, actively listens for understanding, and engages in thought-provoking conversations.

A good Leadership Coach will challenge your thinking, stretch your limits, and hold you accountable for what you say you will do.
