Maybe you have heard of coaching, especially in terms of sports and other contexts. Often, I hear questions about ‘how it works’ when working with a leadership coach. Let’s demystify that…
The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
My coaching philosophy is deeply rooted in concepts of Energy LeadershipTM from my formal coach training at iPEC. Then, I bring my broader experience as a professional and as a human. I incorporate other tools, assessments and organic conversation into our coaching sessions. Overall, the coaching conversations enable you to consider your circumstances and challenges in a new way. We poke around in those beliefs, assumptions, and perceptions to see where you have opportunity. You choose how to shift your mindset, your attitudes, and your actions to achieve your goals your way.

My philosophy about coaching also has some standard things you (dare I say, should!) expect from a coach. I keep your conversations confidential and protect your personal information. Confidentiality means I don’t share what you say unless I’m legally required or there’s possible harm to self or others. I commit to you that I don’t wade into waters where I’m not qualified. I’m not a doctor, lawyer, or therapist, just to name a few. I follow the ethics guidelines of the International Coaching Federation (ICF). My responsibility is to grow through ongoing education, experience, and credentialing with them.
What Clients Are Saying
“…each person is different, and that as a leader you have to appreciate these differences and connect with them as individuals. Trust is developed one on one, not between the leader and the larger group.”

“Beki encourages me to address the core problem, not the symptoms.
She allows you to be authentic without judgment“
— Coaching Client
“I have gained in self-awareness and possibly the most valuable is that I felt I could be vulnerable with Beki, sharing my emotions and learning how valuable that can be. I felt confident I could put the real issues on the table for discussions…and that has not happened to me often in my life.“
