Change2Lead™ for Executives

Leadership behavior, rather than technical skills, is what makes a difference. That is what the teammates, customers, and business partners remember and respond to. This experience is expressed clearly when teammates say they “clicked” with each other, feeling the good interaction with their leader. Leadership transformation does not require you to become a radically different person. Incredible results can come from basic behavioral habits like saying thank you, listening well, thinking before you speak, and apologizing for your mistakes.

Most leaders were not trained for leadership or executive role. They are usually selected based on past performance as key contributors. When emotions, lack of trust and hard conversations put in danger business results, leaders need to bring in effective solutions. My role as a coach is to help leaders create presence, develop curiosity, and practice leadership agility. We start with a deep dialogue to understand who they really are and what they long to accomplish in their leadership transformation.

Change2Lead™ Coaching for Leaders

Are you considering partnering with an executive coach, or are you seeking a coaching match for someone you lead or support?

I partner with leaders of leaders – people who are change-makers and who are elevating their own careers and teams. We start with a series of conversations where you create a growth blueprint – often just an idea of what you desire – and I will be there as a mirror and witness for you to explore who you are in deeper ways than you might with other business or life partners.

For coaching to be successful, you must be ready to:

  • Accept the fact that personality is not fixed
  • Try new concepts and ideas without fear of failure or exposure
  • Speak the truth about what you really think and feel
  • Be open to personal and professional growth
  • Be engaged and willing to share insights, questions, or concerns
  • Be ready, willing, and able to make changes
  • Be committed to our work together

Here are some fields that people use coaches, either individually or in the context of an organization: 

  • Strategic brainstorming
  • Inter-cultural competence development
  • Launch ambitious projects
  • Develop specific leadership skills
  • Facilitate conflict resolutions
  • Navigate the chaos of change
  • Create a better future, more success, money and life balance
  • Explore new career path opportunities
  • Improve teaming and ways of working

Executive coaching tends to be most effective for:

  • New executives who need to onboard quickly
  • New team leaders developing leadership skills
  • Experienced leaders who are in transition and need to adapt
  • Talented future leaders that need accelerated growth
  • Women and diverse leaders who need to leverage strengths
  • Senior directors and leaders preparing successors

What My Clients Most Appreciate

 Being a head of sales, with extensive practical experience, I was curious to explore the impact of executive coaching on my leadership development and my team’s performance. Aleksandra provided expertise, setting up the process, finding right questions to ask. She made it clear thought that it’s on me to decide whether any positive change will happen. The progress is visible: greater commitment and improved leadership effectiveness. It’s pleasure to work with Aleksandra.

Aleksandra was my coach during last 6 months. She gave me incredible feeling that I can do much more in my life. All this time she didn’t try to give me wise advice in the light of the years she lived, she tried to find an individual approach to my fears, anxieties and personal qualities so that I could transform into effective leader. I’m extremely grateful to her for the work done and after the coaching sessions with her it became easier for me to understand the people/actions/given comments and tasks set in the organization.
