As a consultant and coach, I work both individually and in partnership with other professional coaches to offer courses designed for small and large groups. The following are three coaching courses I offer which can be tailored to the needs of specific audiences--whether yours is a technical group, a medical organization, or some other area of specialization.

Renewing Teams
Course length: A one day workshop with follow-up individual/group coaching sessions

This program provides teams a process and tools to understand the natural and predictable patterns of change that can occur with: major projects, product releases, reorganizations, fast growth, new management, shifting work assignments and enable the team to work more effectively together. They learn how to evaluate their current environment and take action around choices that support their goals. This program helps teams to discover their vision and the steps to take them there.

Benefits:

• Foster ownership for each person taking responsibility for where they are in the change process and what they need to do next
• Understand that people have different reactions to change reducing the expectation that everyone "should" be acting like "me".
• Identify strategies and choices to effectively operate as a team, while navigating change
• Develop a plan to work together to achieve the team's goals
• Find strategies to create life/work balance and reduce stress

Using Change to Your Advantage: A Time to Renew
Course length: A half day-two days with follow-up individual/group coaching sessions

Constant change, reorganization, new technology, restructuring, IPO's, mergers and acquisition are today's business reality. This program enables participants to manage and remain productive during these changes by giving them focus and direction at work and in their life. Participants will gain clarity and develop a specific action plan to move forward while aligning their goals with organizational goals.

Benefits:

• Reduced employee stress and greater employee focus
• Ability to move through transitions easier and faster
• Removal of performance barriers
• Increased retention of key employees
