Custom Organizational Coaching
Are you ready to offer coaching to your organization as a win-win professional development benefit?
Has your personal experience working with an executive coach convinced you of the benefits and ROI of professional coaching?
Do you want to empower developing and seasoned leaders to become the best they can be, ensuring that they have the coaching support, tips and tools to truly thrive?
Would you like to build a happy, healthy, high performing coaching culture up and down and across your organization?
Today, coaching and a coaching skill set for leaders is invaluable given the increased expectation for leaders to possess emotional intelligence and associated people skills.
Coaching Unlocks Potential
- Corporate and non-profit sector organizations including hospitals, financial services, management consulting, associations, foundations and educational institutions
- Mid to senior-level managers / executives and boards within organizations including small and medium sized businesses
- Physicians and healthcare professionals working within a hospital setting, community or private practice
Each coaching relationship is unique and begins with the assertion that people are naturally creative and resourceful. It involves meeting clients where they are, listening on many levels, powerful questions, trust and intuition to evoke transformation.
Coaching feels like a 100% focused “re-charging conversation” for clients to tap into the energy they need to move forward and bring out the best in themselves and others. Co-Active Coaching is valuable to any personal or professional change initiative.
I offer flexible one-off Clarity Coaching sessions and Coaching Packages designed to meet you where you are and achieve the results that you want for your people and your organization. Leadership Assessment & Development is my specialty.
Coaching positioned me for enhanced leadership capacity
“Mary-Ellen’s coaching enabled me to hone my reflection-action-reflection muscles and position myself for enhanced leadership capacity. She kept me on track, helped me build on my strengths and focus on areas requiring extra energy to become the best version of myself. I didn’t realize that this process would have such a holistic impact – not just in my workplace, but across my relationships and experiences.”
