EXECUTIVE COACHING
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT TEAMS
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT TEAMS
Although we may have gotten technical training on the elements of doing a task, we rarely get training on how to lead people when we first step into leadership roles. This presents a dilemma, because we believe that we are not supposed to look “weak” so we don’t ask for help. This happens, in part, because we mistakenly believe that we must have all the answers. This is where a lot of bad habits develop that may need to be adjusted.
One-on-one coaching with Dr. Cathy or Dr. Tara can help you to sort through your leadership development goals and actions, and track your own progress as you work on making changes.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT TEAMS
Leadership is a complex set of behaviors that can be challenging to master. The behaviors of effective leadership take practice, and should continue to develop over time. Exploring insights and best practices - with support from others - creates the most sustainable outcomes.
That is why we have taken a process approach to developing leaders, which brings a team of leaders together to study and practice leadership over several months. We have seen great results from the many teams that we have worked with across several industries using this very powerful learning model.
