Be An Actualized Leader

Today’s challenges demand that you become a more adaptive, resilient, and effective leader. It’s time to level up—not by working harder, but by transforming how you think in the face of challenges.

  • Be the island of calm in the tsunami of change, fear, and doubt
  • Gain superpower confidence—knowing you’re resilient, can overcome challenges, stand your ground, and adapt when needed.
  • Be the strategic, thoughtful, optimistic, decisive, and flexible leader the times call for

not just for individuals,

not just in person

You know you are doing everything right, but there is a nagging feeling as you wonder if you are doing enough. While it does feel dangerous, there is opportunity. In the face of all of this, let us help you identify and generate opportunities so that you don’t just weather this crisis, but you set your organization up for success as the reimagined normal evolves. Now is the time to invest in your leadership and how they operate as a team.

Team culture goes beyond individual personalities; it arises from leadership styles, team dynamics, and external challenges. Teams operate on two levels: conscious and unconscious. At the conscious level, behavior is intentional, communication is open and honest, and diverse opinions are welcomed. This fosters productivity, learning, synergy, and satisfaction.

Now is the time to invest in your people and your future.
In normal times, you’d focus on strategic direction through in-person meetings. While virtual meetings have become the norm, they often feel less effective for driving success.

That’s where Arudia virtual facilitation comes in. With proper planning, virtual meetings can be even more effective. As coaches, we ensure clear commitments, deadlines, and actionable plans. Let us help your team build a thriving culture and set a strong course for the future.

what our clients are saying

“You were instrumental as an executive coach as I was preparing to become the CFO for DHS, which is a big job with a $90 billion budget and 250,000 people. I had to gain my team’s trust and build us as a team in a very short period of time. I only had two or three years to achieve goals, not five or ten years as in the corporate world. In addition to coaching me personally, the Actualized Leader Program you delivered to my team helped them to see each other in a safe way – dealing with their fears and stressors more effectively —  so that they could focus on achieving on our objectives. We all appreciated that your background as a tax lawyer gave you a unique perspective on our work as well as an analytical approach to leadership development. You spoke my team’s language. Thanks, Anne!”

Troy Edgar, Partner, Federal – Finance and Supply Chain Transformation Leader at IBM Consulting, Former CFO of the Department of Homeland Security.

“The coaching team at Arudia are outstanding, insightful and supportive. Their use of Kirton’s Adaption-Innovation to help facilitate productive collaboration, effective leadership and optimum outcomes is exemplary. Their work encourages leaders to ensure inclusion, wellbeing and positive cooperation within their teams, using tried and tested techniques, skills and active listening. Anne and Cynthia are a dynamic executive coaching double-act – I highly recommend them and their leadership courses.”

Nicola Kirton Ryall, Director, KAI Foundation

“Our organization was looking for a professional coach to facilitate a leadership training program for women in government relations. Anne knocked our socks off from start to finish. Her knowledge, energy and passion for what she does is contagious. Her recent presentation on personal branding was very well received by our members and kept them asking for more. Anne is a skilled professional who oozes passion for her craft and her clients. We are looking forward to a continued partnership!”

Emily Bardach, Executive Director, Women in Government Relations

“I love my chosen profession and my job, but wanted to push toward the next level of success. Anne has helped me identify and focus on my strengths, articulate what success would look like, and put the tactical plan into place to achieve success. For more than five years, Anne has accompanied me on my career journey providing wise counsel and thoughtful strategies for managing the natural ups and downs of professional life.

Every conversation with Anne is like a mini-professional development session customized for me. She has an incredible ability to quickly get to the heart of my professional challenge and then guide me in navigating a path forward.”

Ann Davison, Public Affairs Executive, Former Senior Vice President and Senior Partner, Vox Global
