Executive Coaching for Organizations
How would your business change if your accounting department was:
Proactive
Efficient
Effectively able to integrate with other departments in your company to meet your organization’s strategic goals.
Forward thinking, able to also look at the big picture and provide you with strategic insights that took your business into a new direction
If your accounting department is not these things, what is it costing your business?
It’s easy to fall into the trap of making judgements about our staff. Putting labels on them.
“Sarah doesn’t think for herself. She’s not proactive.”
“Sam is an island. He doesn’t like to delegate anything.”
“Tom is loyal, but he doesn’t have any drive.”
Followed by …. “That’s just the way they are.”
Then, we do workarounds to compensate. We make others do more work or we bring in extra staff. Sometimes, out of complete frustration, we take over some of the responsibilities ourselves!
We tolerate.
Does this sound familiar? The cost of these workarounds is prohibitive. What’s more, nobody wins. The staff should be developing, but they’re not. They’re busy just getting by doing the same things in the same ways. You know you should be getting more out of your team.
We’re hesitant to let staff go. After all, they’ve been with you for years and they’ve been loyal. There is a human element at play.
I can help. I am a professional accountant with over 20 years of experience at all levels of hierarchy and I’m an Executive Coach.
I help accountants to:
✔ Learn how to properly delegate.
✔ Gain the confidence to effectively lead their staff.
✔ Have difficult discussions with their staff when needed.
✔ Manage their time and resources so they are spending less time on the urgent and more time on the important.
✔ Learn how to deal effectively with challenging personalities.
✔ Find their voice in meetings where they need to be heard.
✔ Create a professional development plan that connects with their professional interests as well as organizational goals.
What I know to be true is that everyone wants to win. Everyone wants to do well in their job and progress. Through mentoring and coaching, I give them the tools to do that.
The result is that your accounting team will become dramatically more productive and more effective. They will enjoy their jobs more and your company will be better as a result.

“I never cease to be amazed at the power of the coaching process to draw out the skills or talent that was previously hidden within an individual, and which invariably finds a way to solve a problem previously thought unsolvable.
