Services

Each client engagement is unique. I focus on your needs and goals to create a proposal that best meets your specific situation. Typically, my clients choose me to be a trusted advisor, for consulting on a specific project or challenge, or for executive and team coaching.

  • Trusted Advisor

Being a senior leader can often feel lonely. You may be trying to address critical decisions or explore unfamiliar opportunities. You may wonder if there’s anyone you can confide in to discuss these confidential business situations.

What if you had your own trusted advisor—someone to help you clarify your priorities and objectives? Someone who would be available when you need a sounding board or a devil’s advocate? Someone who can help you manage the challenges you face?

You may choose to have me work with you behind the scenes, or I can accompany you into your leadership arenas. It’s up to you to choose what you’d prefer.

The Role of a Trusted Advisor in Leadership

As a trusted advisor, I typically work one-on-one with executives or owners. However, I’m also called in to work with boards, partners, or executive teams. My role is to help leaders navigate complex situations with confidence and clarity.

Key Areas Where Executives Benefit From Support

The support executives need varies by individual, but it often includes these core areas of responsibility:

  • Strategic Decision Making
    Senior leaders frequently face high-stakes decisions. A trusted advisor helps you weigh options, evaluate risks, and determine the best path forward.
  • Guiding Organizational and Personal Growth
    Growth comes with challenges. Whether it’s scaling your organization or developing personally as a leader, a trusted advisor helps ensure you’re prepared for the journey ahead.
  • Building Leadership Capabilities
    Leadership is both an art and a skill. A trusted advisor works with you to hone your abilities, enabling you to lead with greater effectiveness and influence.
  • Creating Alignment and Enhancing Teamwork
    Misalignment within teams or organizations can derail progress. A trusted advisor facilitate communication and help ensure your people are working together toward shared goals.

Leaders who work with a trusted advisor find they are better equipped to handle complex challenges, build stronger relationships, and achieve greater success.
