The Three-Step Process

Our process is designed to liberate you from your “less noble self,” to help you master your unrecognized obstacles.

Additionally, the process has a proven track record for developing individual and team leaders locally, nationally and globally.

  • We assess and uncover your developmental and/or skill-related gaps. During coaching discussions and/or through structured, validated assessment tools we get the benefit of  “Inside-out” and/or  “Outside-in” Views “ on how to tackle the issues you are committed to addressing.

  • We discover why these gaps exist through an effective model called Immunity to Change™. This model reveals any hidden resistance — your immunity — to change. We identify what’s holding you back from reaching your goals and aspirations, even when your leadership efforts feel well intended.

  • We engage in a series of executive leadership coaching sessions to create, implement and support a meaningful development plan for you, or your team. We strike just the right balance of technical skill acquisition and leadership development. We use carefully designed experiments that allow you to safely incorporate new perspectives and behaviors at work, in real time.

“I didn’t feel that I could afford to reflect – some memories were buried intentionally. Nor did I have the mental or behavioral models to dig deeper. Barbara helped me see the power of introspection and vulnerability and their connections to my work, and more importantly, life.”

“Barbara shares tools that empower me to manage my emotions and normalize my fears. She continues to remind me that how I relate to my “ideal” self is totally within my control. The fingerprints she has placed on my life continue to make me a better father, husband, and colleague. Her legacy will always live among the ripple effect of my interactions with others.”
