Beth's executive coaching was crucial to my success during a time of career growth.

Sarah Ellison (International Development Professional)
In 2021 I found myself facing several personal and professional challenges colliding and with feedback from my leader about ‘being more strategic’ as we continued to work with resource constraints through COVID, Beth helped me navigate creating the space for strategy, filling the gaps created by lost headcount and being newly married with a demanding career. She challenged me to think differently about what being ‘strategic’ meant to my various stakeholders and two years later I’m still getting positive feedback from my leader and CEO for my continued thought leadership.

Top 5 Executive Coaching FAQ's
What is executive coaching?
Executive coaching is a collaborative development process in which a professional coach helps a leader to focus on taking action toward achieving their goals. Coaching involves inquiry and personal discovery to build the leader’s self-awareness. Leaders typically work with a coach on goals to enhance their skills, increase their leadership capacity, and improve their overall performance.
How are coaches different from mentors or therapists?
Coaches have expertise in coaching processes and techniques but do not need to have expertise in the leader’s job or industry. Coaching is a formal, future-focused process, and coaches help to hold the leader accountable for their progress toward achieving specific goals.
Mentors have expertise in the same field, function, or industry as the mentee. Mentoring is an informal process in which the mentor shares their experience to offer advice, insight, and knowledge to help the mentee to build specific competencies. Mentors focus on providing guidance and support rather than accountability.
Therapists are trained professionals (ex: psychologists, social workers, counselors, etc.) who listen, look for patterns, and guide the patient to finding new, productive ways to deal with personal issues or challenges. They often identify, diagnose, and treat specific mental health concerns that are impairing daily functioning. Therapy is a formal process that tends to be past- or present-focused.
For how long does an executive coaching engagement last?
Coaching engagements are goal-based, so the duration varies. Typically, initial engagements are three to six months long. The coach and leader may extend the engagement (or cut it short) based on the time it takes the leader to achieve their goals. Some engagements are open-ended where the coach acts as a thought partner to the leader.
How long does it take to show results from an executive coaching engagement?
The timeframe for seeing results varies depending on both the scope and complexity of the goals and the individual's commitment to the process. Typically, noticeable improvements start to emerge within a few months. A full engagement entails both achieving the goals and ensuring both sustainable development and lasting change.
How do I choose the right coach for me?
Choosing a coach is a personal decision. You need to feel comfortable sharing personal information about your goals, performance, and challenges with them. Going through the following steps can be helpful:
Get clear on what you want to accomplish. Think through the goals you want to achieve, what kind of support you are looking for, and how at the end of the engagement you will determine whether or not it was successful.
Research and ask for recommendations. There are a lot of coaches out there. Asking friends and colleagues for recommendations is a great place to start. Your HR partner or Learning & Development team may be able to provide recommendations. You can also ask coaches for references from previous clients.

Ask about certification. Coaching is largely unregulated. Anyone can call themselves a coach. The International Coach Federation (ICF) is the leading global organization for coaching. Coaches that are ICF-certified go through stringent education and experience requirements. They have demonstrated a thorough understanding of the coaching competencies and are bound by a code of ethics.
Meet with several potential coaches. Schedule short meet-and-greets with two to three potential coaches to assess their communication style, better understand their experience, and determine if you would feel comfortable working with them. I always ask coaches when and how they get coaching themselves. Not everyone needs to have a coach at all times. However, coaches should have formal experiences being coached themselves and be able to speak to it.
