Leadership & Executive Coaching

Leadership coaching for executives, managers, and professionals, new-hire onboarding, and organizations such as healthcare, associations – anyone that is willing to invest in themselves to up-level performance and recognition.

How Our Coaching Services Work

We will work on achieving milestones on your leadership journey as well as address the everyday challenges of being a leader and manager. While a part of Arudia’s leadership coaching services, the  goals are yours – you use coaching time to focus on your most urgent challenges. Anne will help you to better understand and leverage your own leadership style and problem-solving style as you navigate colleagues’ problem-solving styles or leadership styles. We will support you in using coaching skills and the Win-Win Conversation Model.

All coaching is confidential. The sessions are typically 30-minutes long (or an hour if you prefer). You will meet with either Anne Collier or Cynthia Shaffer every couple of weeks by Zoom or phone – whatever frequency and time works for your schedule. They  offer an optional coaching intake package to help you clarify your goals for the coaching and for them to get to know you better.

The Process

It all starts with you. Your goals, who you want to be, and how you want to manage yourself and others.

Before our first coaching session, we’ll ask you to complete select assessments and complete our intake package. After the initial session of an hour or two, we’ll work with you in 30-minute sessions every 7 – 10 days over a period of time. This short-burst follow-up and coaching will get you immediate results.

During the coaching sessions, we’ll help you:

  • Develop new skills
  • Prioritize commitments
  • Clarify and balance goals
  • Create effective strategies

Be An Actualized Leader

The challenges of today require you to be a better, more adaptive, and more resilient leader. It’s what the times call for. You need to upgrade your personal operating system not by working harder, but by transforming the way you think. By working with Anne, you will be able to:

  • Be the island of calm in the tsunami of change, fear, and doubt
  • Have superpower confidence, meaning that you know you are resilient, that you have the ability to overcome difficulties, to push back when pushed, to intentionally adapt when necessary
  • Be the strategic, thoughtful, optimistic, decisive, and flexible leader the times call for

Not Just for Individuals

We coach executives, managers, and professionals – anyone that is willing to invest in themselves to up-level performance and recognition. We don’t stop there – we offer a broad range of professional and organizational coaching, including:

Looking For A Competitive Executive Edge?

If it’s time for you to step into power, Arudia is here to help. We tailor our executive coaching program to help you identify and achieve your goals, and focus on guiding you to learn, develop, and maximize your natural strengths.
You will develop as a leader, learning how to apply actionable approaches to people problems. Our executive coaching program sessions will help you do your best thinking, put your thoughts into action, and help you guide your team members to work to their highest potential. As an outside party, we’re objective and confidential and will provide you with the insight you need to grow.

New Hire Onboarding

Ideal for both onboarding junior hires as well as more senior staff, this workshop encapsulates insights, key “dos” and “don’ts”, and the communication skills necessary for successfully managing up. You will come away knowing how to communicate effectively to gain visibility, showcase your strengths, and develop your niche while managing your career and professional relationships over the long-term.

Build Your Business

While building your business can feel insurmountable, Arudia is here to support you. We offer individual coaching to help you to develop your strategy, make the most of your natural style, and learn new skills such as graceful and effective networking. We work with you to create your personal brand – the talking points you need to discuss your services.

Create Your Professional Brand

Everybody says you have to build a personal brand to build your business. Learn how to talk about yourself and services authentically; be more prepared and confident; use icebreakers, personal “news stories” and gracious entrances and exits to network more effectively; and set yourself up for successful follow-up.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

INSTRUMENTAL AS AN EXECUTIVE COACH

“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.

A DYNAMIC EXECUTIVE COACHING DOUBLE-ACT

“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

KNOCKED OUR SOCKS OFF FROM START TO FINISH!

“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

HELPED ME PUT A PLAN INTO PLACE – SUCCESS!

“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
