“When I first sought out leadership coaching, I was intimidated by some aspects of my role and persons with whom I interacted and felt it affected my ability to move forward the mission of our agency. Within a couple of sessions, I had tools that allowed me to explore my feelings and reactions, then use that exploration to effect more robust, balanced and effective relationships (and as a consequence many other business and personal relationships). What I appreciated most was Amy’s ability to tailor the coaching to me as a unique individual.” –Viv T.

If you are a woman in a technology or business leadership role, then you know how hard it is to be seen and heard without compromising who you are.
I want you to know something.
You can get your ideas heard and advance your career by leveraging your strengths and being your authentic self.
Here is what we can do together.
Clarify what’s really important to you professionally and personally. Discover how your professional goals align with your personal goals and values.
Identify, embrace and leverage your natural strengths so you can be confident about who you are and what you have to offer.
Build your toolbox with resources you can create and leverage – e.g. strong alliances, setting boundaries and managing conflicts.
Squash the negative talk that gets in your way from feeling confident, authentic and taking action.
Design a strategy that is based on a clear perspective, reflects the choices you can and want to make, and moves you toward your goal.
Practice something uncomfortable in a safe space to see how you respond to challenging situations.
“Before working with Amy, I was stuck and unmotivated. Within 3 months I am now more organized, focused and driven on my goals. Now, I’m in a better place mentally and physically with nowhere to go but up. What I like most about working with Amy is she is very nice and fun, but will put you to work.” – Jorge M.
