I had the opportunity to work closely with Corinna for about ~3-4 months this year. Throughout our coaching sessions I found Corinna to be an empathetic leader with personal and professional skills that greatly complemented each other. My objective was to learn how to improve my communication skills so I can increase my influence as a leader. Instead of just jumping into discussing the tactics involved in effectively communicating to executive leadership, Corinna first took the time to understand why I felt this goal was important to me as a person, as a professional, and as a member of my organization. Through Corinna’s approach to goal setting we were able to uncover a few mental roadblocks I didn't initially realize affected my ability to effectively communicate in email, verbally and through powerpoint presentations. It was an eye opening experience that has not only resulted in an immediate improvement in my communication capabilities but has provided me the tools to efficiently execute email and power point communications in the future. I greatly appreciate Corinna’s support and would highly recommend her as a coach for any mid-level manager looking to increase their effectiveness.

Insights

From Our Blog

why comunication -

Top executives have worked with coaches for decades because it works. Coaching is no longer an exclusive service only offered to executives of large corporations. The increasing popularity of coaching in the workplace delivers benefits to you:

Leadership Coaching is your safe space to work on your goals. When you go to a leadership or communication seminar, you often walk away with great information. But you’re missing results that help you to lead and face your unique challenges.

Information Doesn’t Equal Transformation

Leadership Coaching allows you to work on your own agenda and your challenges a safe space with a trusted advisor.

For most leaders, work is so demanding and fast-paced that there is little time to reflect. And often, you have no one available to help you work through your obstacles.

This is where coaching uses a proven process to break through the communication barriers you face in leadership and business. Imagine having clarity, confidence and making consistent progress toward your goals!
