STRENGTHENING STRATEGIC LEADERSHIP AND CERTAINTY TO DRIVE CHANGE AND TEAM ACCOUNTABILITY

Overview: Leanne, a newly promoted VP, entered her role with a desire to solidify her strategic leadership, empower leadership certainty, and lead change decisively. Leveraging her 18+ years of experience, Leanne was committed to engaging and learning from her new team while driving business evolution. Early in the coaching engagement, she identified the need to make decisions more swiftly while still valuing diverse viewpoints. She gained clarity on when to take decisive action, learned to trust her partners, and improved her delegation approach, all of which helped her move more strategically in her leadership role.

Outcome: Through coaching, Leanne empowered her leadership certainty by recognizing when to release control and empower her team. Facing challenging decisions, including reductions in force (RIF), she drew on her deep organizational experience to make decisions that supported her vision for her future team. She identified two key players and effectively rewarded them with expanded responsibilities, reinforcing her commitment to capable decision-making. Her proactive, strategic approach led to the implementation of an ROI dashboard and clearer resource accountability which delivered stronger accountability across her delivery and recruiting teams. 

At the conclusion of the coaching engagement, Leanne’s manager expressed that she “did extremely well” and made a “massive transformation” as a result of her Leadership coaching journey.
