FOCUS  AREAS

Wondering what other executives focus on in coaching?

The goals clients bring to coaching are as varied as their roles, yet most share a common thread of leading through complexity while staying true to themselves. The examples below come from past clients and are shared in de-identified form to illustrate the types of focus areas coaching can support.

  • Focused on transitions and early momentum.

    • Establish a strong start in a new executive role by balancing early impact, active learning, and confident presence.

    • Accelerate credibility and trust in a new organization.

    • Advocate more strategically for my role, my team, and the value we deliver across the enterprise.

  • Goals centered on elevating priorities, shaping strategy, and thinking more expansively.

    • Realign my focus to elevate mission-critical work above the operational noise.

    • Position myself for expanded enterprise leadership and greater strategic responsibility.

    • Lead with greater creativity and boldness in shaping vision, strategy, and innovation.

    • Build visibility and influence to earn a seat in enterprise-level decision making.

  • All about executive presence, team dynamics, and interpersonal leadership.

    • Inspire and energize my team by leading with purpose, presence, and consistency.

    • Strike the right balance between empowering, guiding, and holding my team accountable.

    • Refine my communication style so that intensity is received as conviction, not aggression.

    • Lead more authentically and assertively, especially in high-stakes or politically complex situations.

  • For leaders who are already effective but want to expand their reach and impact.

    • Increase my influence and visibility as a leader others seek out for insight and alignment.

    • Advocate more strategically for my role, my team, and the value we deliver across the enterprise.

    • Build visibility and influence to earn a seat in enterprise-level decision making.

  • Centered on self-awareness, alignment, and evolving leadership identity.

    • Identify and develop the leadership capabilities needed to thrive in a broader or more complex scope.

    • Clarify the direction I want to take in my career and align my efforts to reflect that choice.

    • Grow into a leader who multiplies the impact of those around me.

    • Set and maintain sustainable boundaries in a high-demand environment without sacrificing outcomes.

This fall, clients are focusing on how to stay grounded in the kind of leader they want to be; even when stress, urgency, or organizational dynamics pull them in other directions.

Many are also facing an abundance of opportunity, and the challenge has become not what to pursue, but what to prioritize. Clarity, alignment, and intentionality are more essential than ever.
