Most companies assume that new managers will have no problem gaining a team’s trust and setting them up for success– all with no training. But you and I know that leading a team is complex and requires new skills and tools! Instead of fumbling blindly, we can work together to expand your leadership toolkit and build you into an inspirational and effective leader.
Many clients have benefited simply by retooling their boundaries at work. Too many of us have allowed the expectations of others to define our work life, which leaves us feeling resentful and controlled. With coaching, clients learn to take back their autonomy and to clarify the difference between their responsibilities and those of their peers and leaders.
When you have broken boundaries, you’re going to experience burnout. In these cases, we examine the root cause of the burnout (e.g. a lack of self-care, never saying ‘no’, toxic work culture, ongoing conflict) and create a plan to reduce that burnout. The result? Energy and joy are restored.
