My mission is to inspire and coach leaders, unlocking performance to become unstoppable in their personal and professional lives.
Successfully leading SELF, TEAMS and BUSINESS is key to accelerating performance.
You may ask, "why and when would I engage a professional coach and consultant?" If you are facing a personal, professional or business transition - DON'T GO IT ALONE. Understanding your drivers, setting outcome focused goals aligned to your purpose and values, creating and activating a personalize roadmap, and taking action with conscious intent is the recipe for success.
Working together and leveraging my 30+ years of executive experience developing high performing leaders, successfully leading business and culture transformations, and delivering exceptional results will be your secret advantage.
As your strategic advisor, we will get to the heart of the matter, calling on the best of your capabilities, and embarking on a process that will enlighten, inspire and enable you to make the shifts needed to achieve your maximum potential.
What you think about you, how you show-up, and how you hold yourself accountable, has a direct impact on YOUR success and fulfillment in life and business.
Understanding your goals, identifying barriers, and leveraging insights to overcome obstacles is foundational. Together we will craft YOUR personal roadmap to unstoppable success in life and work.
ENGAGEMENT OUTCOMES:
Regardless of the position you have in an organization, you impact the performance of those around you. Tapping into the talents of all, and delivering results depends on how YOU lead.
Become a leader people want to follow, passionately investing their discretionary effort, and delivering exceptional results. Understand when to lead vs. manage, and what it takes to get the best from others.
ENGAGEMENT OUTCOMES:
Renovating, pioneering or making crucial pivots in business is hard. Many don’t know how, miss the mark or wait too long, resulting in unrealized performance or worse – irrelevance.
Leverage the experience and expertise of a proven executive to develop, embed, and deploy the foundational elements for a successful business.
ENGAGEMENT OUTCOMES:
“Gretchen has a unique ability to reach into your head and identify barriers that you never realized were keeping you from reaching your full potential. She focuses on strengths and weaknesses in such an insightful way that it does not seem like a challenge to overcome shortcomings. After working with Gretchen, I started implementing her suggestions and immediately saw positive results."
Chief Procurement Officer
“I worked with Gretchen during a transitional period in my life. She helped me build a personal framework and functional tool that I used to decide what was next for my career. This was not a tool from a textbook, but something she helped me create with her guidance. Amazing balance of empowerment and coaching. Gretchen is a down-to-earth, easy going, honest, and genuinely a great human being.”
Chief of Staff
“Working with Gretchen has made an incredible impact on my professional life. She is literally an executive boost. Her ability to guide with compassion, patience, and kindness makes every session an enlightenment moment. Through her guidance I have successfully:
Transitioned into a job that aligns with my values.
Developed a structure to optimize my efforts for greater impact.
Improve my capability for listening and development engagement through the organization.
Identify better ways to demonstrate my professional acumen.”
International Director
"Gretchen is an amazing professional coach that I would highly recommend.
I found myself at the midpoint of my career wondering what was next. In six months, Gretchen helped me to reconnect with my work values, identify my priorities, and create a smart action plan.
She is masterful at asking the right questions that prompt you beyond thinking to taking specific action.
In addition to her ability to coach, she has a high level of engagement and investment in you as her client. It amazes me how fast this transformation occurred thanks to Gretchen’s targeted approach.
It has been an absolute delight working together. This coaching experience has been one of the best investments I have made in my career. "
Global Executive
As your transformation partner, I bring my 30-years of executive experience developing high-performing teams, successfully leading transformations, and delivering exceptional results across multiple business sectors and industries to bring about immediate and lasting change.
I have honed my business sense through diverse career positions. From successfully leading key IPO initiatives for two start-up companies; pioneering online commerce and international expansion for a North American logistics company; renovating the strategy, organizational structure and customer partnerships for two global B2B organizations; reinventing the volunteer and revenue model for a premier leadership development association; and leading the retail and hospitality practice for a change management consultancy, advising senior management teams of Fortune 500 companies around culture, talent and business transformation. I’ve held Board positions, including Board Chair, with for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. I am a skilled facilitator and requested speaker for conferences, webcasts and corporate functions.
One of my greatest asset is the ability to get to the heart of the matter, calling on the best of people’s capabilities, and dissecting the big picture into manageable parts. My unique ability to provide direct feedback, ask provocative questions in a way that is compassionate and collaborative, leads to greater insight and “all in” execution. I quickly connect purpose, strategy, and actions with the necessary behavioral shifts to bring about immediate and lasting performance improvement for companies and the people who lead them.
I’ve earned an Executive Leadership Certification from Northwestern University, Kellogg School of Management and Executive Coach Certification from CTA.
