Coaching for Executives & Leaders
The leaders and future leaders who come to me often feel frustrated, stifled, or out of their depth, despite their capacity to lead.
They may have stepped into a new role they’re not sure they’re ready for, or may be challenged to meet the more-better-faster demands of a current role. They may feel (or have been told) they lack the leadership competencies or relationships to succeed.
Some are struggling to show up safely and authentically in settings where they’ve been underrepresented or where role models and mentors are few.
In other cases, they’re long-time leaders who are yearning for something more: a leadership presence that fires up their teams and inspires their organizations.
Often, they’re wondering: What now?
As a Coach, I can help you:
gain traction in a new or current role
accelerate your growth to meet market or organizational changes
develop leadership skills and relationships to advance your career
ratchet up your resiliency in the face of growing demands
cultivate leadership competencies that inspire others (and motivate you)
translate your vision into action
stay accountable to your plans
What to Expect
Together, we’ll design a partnership to meet your goals and pace. You can work with me one-to-one or in a small-group setting. Opt for regular meetings and check-ins — in-person, by phone or online — as you practice new skills and behaviors and refine your vision.
“I had the opportunity to work with Irvenia as my executive coach during my transition to a new role as ED at a non-profit school. I found her to be very accessible and warm, non-judgmental and easy to talk to. She both provided me with the space I needed to express my challenges, and listened with compassion and empathy. She was responsive and brought good insight to our meetings, which I was able to use practically with my new admin team. Her support helped to buoy me during complex challenges, and the tools she provided helped me to become a more reflective and patient leader.””
“I feel that you’re opening up windows that needed light and air for a long time. I’m so grateful, truly.””
“
Irvenia helped me navigate through a very difficult and challenging situation in my work environment to get the clarity and resolve that I needed. She was compassionate, empathetic and objective. She effectively challenged my perceptions and some limiting beliefs which allowed me to develop and execute effective strategies in a very complex situation. I highly recommend Irvenia as an executive coach. She offers a unique blend of business savvy and life experience along with a genuine desire to move people forward. She listens, understands, asks relevant questions and is committed to clients’ successes!””
