COMMUNICATION COACHING FOR EXECUTIVES
‘Soft’ skill. Solid results.
You know communication is at the core of everything you do as an executive. But you’re under pressure. Demands on your performance are at an all-time high. Communication is the last thing on your long, long list.
It’s just a soft skill, right?
A soft skill that moves other executives to decide and act.
A soft skill that motivates your teams.
A soft skill to tell your success story.
(Before someone else tells a different story for you.)
You know your communication skills are vital. And when you don’t have time to spare, you’d better find an effective way to grow them. A way that gives you insights you can use immediately.
So you can have better meetings. Better conversations with your people. And better results.
Grow your effective communication
through your personal blend of coaching
and one-on-one training
You don’t have time to spare. You can’t sort through Google searches or communication skill books to find what works for you.
Coaching effectively grows your awareness. It can help you identify your challenges and your resources. But you need more. Something you can put into practice as soon as possible.
You need communication coaching that gets straight to the point. Paired with one-on-one training and mentoring to develop the specific skills you need. So you can walk out of a session and use your freshly gained insights immediately.
Coaching + Training = Results
When you go looking for a coach, you often have a good grasp of the problems you’re facing. Meetings that only result in more meetings instead of decisions. Feedback conversations gone awry.
That heavy feeling at the pit of your stomach when you realize your performance doesn’t speak for itself. When you struggle to find a way to tell your success story without selling yourself.
You know the problem. But when you want to tackle it, where do you start?
Coaching
You start with a free 30-minute consult. You tell me what challenges you’re facing. I listen and ask questions designed to get to the root of the problem.
At the end of our conversation, you have more clarity on how to build your effective communication. And a good sense of whether I’m the right coach for you. You’ll get a proposal with a program designed just for you – without obligations.
When you decide to work with me, your first session is an in-depth coaching conversation. It helps you identify your priorities, your strengths, and what hinders you. You’ll define how you want to communicate with other leaders and your teams. And what you need to get there.
Training
Your initial coaching conversation is the foundation for the next – typically 3 or 4 – sessions. You can schedule those sessions whenever they work for you. Early morning, daytime, or late night – your communication coaching is tailored to fit you and your schedule.
In each session, you’ll work on one of your priorities. You get one-on-one training. Highly tailored mentoring. Tools, techniques and templates you can use the moment your session ends.
Your next session starts with feedback. Because real impact rarely happens in session. It happens during your next meeting. It hits you in the middle of the next feedback conversation with the project manager on your team.
By learning from your experience, you embed effective communication practices into the way you work. And you get one step closer to the results you want.
Results
The final session is typically about bringing your new insights together. Linking them back to the goals you set during our first coaching conversation. And refining any insights or tools you need more time with.
Even when our sessions end, you’ll keep experimenting. You’ll find what approach works for you – so you’ll keep using it even when the pressure rises. You’ll work hard to become a more effective communicator. Because you know that’s how you create real impact.
And I’ll be your coach, trainer, mentor and trusted advisor. Working with you until you get there.
Your communication coach, trainer, mentor and trusted advisor
You want business results through effective communication. Which means you need a trainer and coach who understands your corporate environment and your role in it as an executive.
I’ve worked with senior leaders while I was a consultant and project manager at McKinsey. I’ve coached and trained C-suite executives in effective communication. Your organization can be complex to navigate. I understand that impactful communication isn’t about constructs and theories. It’s about better practices integrated into your company culture, structure, and strategic priorities.
You need someone who understands communication in all of its facets. I’ve specialized in structured communication, the impact of decision-making on communication, the neuroscience behind leadership, and storytelling.
You need a safe space to reflect, recharge, and grow. I’ve created those spaces while coaching leaders at significant moments in their careers, as a talent manager at McKinsey and as a communication coach.
Take charge
of your own story
Many executives are in survival mode. The pressure to perform is high. The pace even higher. You want to take a step back, breathe, and reflect. You know having a clear vision is crucial when you’re going at that kind of speed.
But you don’t want to slow down unnecessarily. Other leaders need your input. Your team needs your answers. And when you banged out a whole project just before the deadline… you just never found the time to take that step back.
Very often, good enough really is good enough. Your upfront communication could have been better. Your meetings could have run smoother. But you made it. You and your team delivered.
It works just fine. Once, twice. Definitely a third time too.
But if you never find the time for that step back… If your story gets blurry because you’ve sped past too many times, it’s time to take charge. What are you working to achieve? What results have you already delivered? What are your priorities going forward? What do you need from other leaders and your team?
And how much of that have you communicated?
If you don’t tell the story, someone else might. And chances are they’ll get at least part of it wrong. You are the only one who can tell your story in the way it needs to be told.
