Case Study 1:
An experienced project manager had been promoted into an executive level role and become a member of the organization’s senior executive team. He was struggling to adapt to the expectations and requirements of his new role.
The coaching process, taking place over 12 months, supported the new leader to develop his capacity and confidence in working as a senior executive. He was able to rely less on his technical expertise and draw more on his ability to steer through complex and ambiguous situations.
The leader achieved his coaching goals of becoming a more strategic manager, able to engage and effectively influence stakeholders. He was better able to manage priorities and shifting demands, and had greater ease in developing his staff to perform at their best.

Case Study 2:
A regional association was embarking on a year-long internal executive leadership transition. Despite the two leaders having a good working relationship, they recognized that an external coach would help them navigate this complex challenge more effectively.
The coaching process, with both joint sessions and one-on-one time, allowed them to explore experiences and tensions. The coach’s structured yet flexible approach provided them guidance while allowing room for exploration.
The leadership transition took place with a sense of completion and peace of mind. The leaders had accomplished a thoughtfully sequenced knowledge transfer and developed powerful reflection practices. Leadership abilities were affirmed, and the incoming leader reported deeper skills, strengthened presence and her readiness for the new role.
