Challenge
Andre, a self proclaimed hot mess, was struggling to get his footing as leader. He is a rising star, but he knew he had some bad habits and lack of self awareness in key areas that needed to be strengthened. Things that had worked for him when he was a team member suddenly weren’t working for the team that he was managing and he knew that there had to be a better way that would help his team to become better and more successful.
Solution
Andre turned to executive coaching. It was very important for him to find a coach who was personable and spent time building a solid foundation of trust to help develop his own authentic leadership style. When he started working with Stefanie Krievins & Co., Andre knew that our ability to take his personal values and his growth opportunities as a leader and factor those into the coaching relationship would help make him a much stronger, well-rounded leader. Having someone who got to know him and was willing to step up and challenge his beliefs and ideas was exactly what he needed to level up to the leader that he had always dreamed of being.
