This experience keeps her grounded in the real-world challenges and pressures leaders face. Amy is a practical, results-driven person who is motivated by bringing out the best in people and organizations. Amy’s core offerings, tailored to client needs, include:

Leaders and Managers:

The Leadership Challenge Workshop® – this internationally recognized leadership development program is grounded in over 30 years of research into the specific behaviors exemplary leaders employ to drive superior organizational performance and employee engagement. Available in one and two-day formats, this dynamic workshop includes 360-feedback. Amy is one of about 50 Certified Master Facilitators of this program, a designation that can only be earned after years of demonstrated expertise and effectiveness.

Stakeholder-Centered Coaching – Amy is certified in this highly effective coaching process developed by the #1 Executive Coach in the world, Dr. Marshall Goldsmith.  Key constituents of the client are actively engaged in establishing goals, providing “feedforward” and assessing progress.

Interpersonal Skills Development – Amy offers several workshops on topics such as Giving and Receiving Feedback, Coaching Skills for Managers, Emotional Intelligence, and Designing and Facilitating High Impact Meetings

Teams:

The Five Behaviors of a Cohesive Team™ – Based on the work of Patrick Lencioni, this robust team building and assessment process helps teams develop trust, engage in productive conflict, commit to shared goals, and establish clear accountability, all with a focus on attaining shared results. The length and intensity of the process is driven by the team’s needs and capacity and can be done in one, two or three-day formats. 

Everything DiSC Workplace® – This personality assessment and corresponding high energy one-day workshop helps teams understand and tap into the power of diverse styles.  With renewed insight into their own and others’ priorities, motivators, and stressors, teams reduce conflict and engage in true collaboration. 

Organizations:

Design of high-impact succession planning/talent review/top talent identification processes.

Strategic deployment of various programs to help organizations develop an intentional culture reinforced by common vision, values, and people practices.

Design and facilitate high impact meetings that fully engage participants and result in concrete outcomes.

My coaching style can be characterized by a phrase that a past client uses to describe me, which is “teller of the kind truth.” I listen deeply, ask curiously, and counsel thoughtfully. I believe that growth of any kind is rooted in new insights, reflection, practice, and accountability. It is my genuine pleasure to support my coaching clients in all of those ways.”
