PCC Certified Executive Coach ~ Ex-McKinsey ~ Columbia ~ Forbes, TEDx, NBC
Studied at Columbia Business School
Worked at McKinsey & Company
This comprehensive 6-month executive coaching engagement is built for senior leaders, founders, and executives who want to scale their leadership, unlock growth, and lead with greater clarity, confidence, and impact. You’ll partner with your coach in biweekly 1:1 sessions (or a cadence that fits your schedule), supported by asynchronous guidance, goal tracking, and tailored tools. The experience evolves over time to meet your unique context—whether you're leading through scale, navigating complex transitions, or preparing for your next chapter. The engagement also includes a 360-degree leadership analysis, where your coach gathers structured feedback from peers, direct reports, and other stakeholders. This provides a holistic view of your leadership strengths, blind spots, and areas for growth—creating a strong foundation for the work ahead. What you’ll work on: - 360 Feedback Review & Goal Setting: Translate insights into a focused leadership development plan. - Vision & Strategic Thinking: Set direction and align teams around mission-critical goals. - Leadership Style & Self-Awareness: Deepen self-knowledge and adapt your style for maximum influence. - Decision-Making in Ambiguity: Gain tools to lead decisively through complexity and change. - Executive Presence & Influence: Strengthen communication and earn trust with senior stakeholders and boards. - Team Building & Culture: Lead high-performing teams and shape the culture you want to scale. - Stakeholder Management: Navigate dynamics across direct reports, peers, boards, and cross-functional partners. - Burnout & Sustainability: Build systems to lead with energy and balance over the long term. - Career Strategy & Long-Term Growth: Clarify your next step, whether expanding your role, transitioning industries, or building a legacy. This engagement is ideal for executives seeking deep, lasting transformation with a trusted partner who brings structured support, honest reflection, and a focus on measurable impact.
