Approach
Experience the power of our highly customized research-based approach to understand why virtually all of our business comes from returning clients or is the result of referrals.
I’m motivated by results and making a real difference. For every engagement, my goal is to exceed expectations and facilitate growth and success above and beyond what my client may have thought possible.
—Rachel Kadosh
Rachel’s approach centers around Awareness and Insight (what’s actually happening?), Clarity (what truly matters?), Action (how to move forward?) and Results (impactful professional development).
Rachel listens deeply and is able to clearly identify underlying issues. She facilitates greater self-awareness and self-management, and ultimately leadership versatility, so that leaders are able to shift unproductive behaviors and more effectively leverage strengths.
Engagements usually fall into one of the following categories:
- One-on-one executive coaching
- Onboarding
- Optimization of professional relationship dynamics
- Executive Transition
The first step is to schedule an initial conversation to explore how we might work together. We’ll ask questions to understand your situation and answer any questions you may have. We’ll be candid regarding any potential roadblocks and will advise if there are foundational pieces you or the organization need to put in place first, in order for our engagement to be most effective.
We’ll partner with you to set both realistic and “stretch” goals and then develop a targeted and customized process, with clear structure and timelines, to achieve results.
