With company sponsored programs, coaching partnerships are structured to include the coach, client, and an engagement sponsor. The program is tied to business goals, an assessment of the client’s strengths and developmental needs with input from their sponsor.
All coaching sessions are confidential. I’ll assign homework, make book recommendations, share tools / resources for continued growth between sessions to reach your highest potential. The length of a coaching engagement can vary and is based on your goals.
