Even the strongest leaders tend to lose their Footing.
A new role. A reorg. A hundred new expectations.
Or maybe you’re mid-career, staring at a full calendar and wondering if you’ve lost your spark.
Even the most seasoned leaders can feel unsettled: the pressure to prove yourself, the flood of meetings, the relationships you’re suddenly expected to build or recalibrate. It’s a lot — and it’s easy to lose your footing.
That’s where I come in.
I guide leaders through a grounded, practical process that reconnects you with what matters most — your clarity, your presence, and your relationships.
Using my framework of Intention + Inquiry + Clear Requests & Offers — adapted from the work of Harville Hendrix, Roger Schwarz, and the authors of Crucial Conversations — you’ll begin to:
- Make intentional choices about how you lead
- Ensure every connection is impactful — not just another meeting or check-in
- Focus your time and energy where it creates real momentum
What I Offer:
Stakeholder Relationship Strategy
- Identify the right intention for key relationships (deep partnership vs. efficient transactions)
- Discover behavioral styles and strategies that build authentic influence
- Focus your limited energy where it creates maximum impact — reducing meaningless meetings
Relationship Dialogue Sessions
- Reset strained relationships into new sources of influence and impact
- Recognize the value each party brings
- Commit to collaboration actions
- Shift from protecting turf to advancing shared outcomes
Transition Navigation
- Clarify your value proposition in a new environment
- Access the best thinking when facing unfamiliar challenges
- Build confidence in creating impact through intentional dialogue
- Develop self-trust to navigate complexity with resilience
Client Stories:
- Resolving Territorial Conflicts: Two department leaders shifted from defensive turf protection to unified recommendations, solving problems together that neither could solve alone.
- Strategic Influence Mapping: An overwhelmed leader discovered that focusing on just two key influencers created cascading impact across the stakeholder network — reducing overwhelm and amplifying influence
- Restoring Strained Partnerships: A senior manager and direct report reset their relationship, recommitted to intentional collaboration, and developed new communication signals to stay connected under pressure
The Impact:
- This isn't about fixing you. It's about helping you stop performing and start connecting—with purpose.
- Because when you reset your relationships through intentional dialogue, you don't just reclaim your calendar—you regain your influence.
- "Work feels different when the people in the room actually see you—and you see them back."
Perfect For:
- New leaders building relationships in unfamiliar environments
- Executives managing reorganizations or expanded responsibilities
- Leaders dealing with stakeholder conflicts or unclear role boundaries
- Anyone stepping into increased influence who wants to do it authentically
- Mid -career leaders questioning their sense of purpose or ability to make impact
