An update from Babs on life, the Project, and coaching.
Life Update
This summer we left the forests and lakes for the prairie and big sky. We decided to be efficient (lazy) and to make some decisions about what would stay and what would go.
Everything came under scrutiny. We focused on what was important, like the old stinky dog couch, and let go of the rest.
This exercise for moving led me to take a fresh look at my priorities and goals. I found a desire to go even deeper and bigger with the Courageous Leaders Project.
Project Update
The Courageous Leaders Project is about supporting courageous leaders. I imagined a slow-growing flexible project where I would respond to a variety of needs, initiatives, and aspirations as they came my way.
Instead the the Project grew quickly and has come to a point where it, and I, need a focus. That focus is coaching.
Focusing on coaching allows me to have the space and time to work with more people. People like you who believe in courageous leadership for healthier and wiser workplaces, for meaningful impact in your communities, and for a better world.
Coaching Update
My whole-person coaching method is about discovering or reconnecting with what is important to you and how you want to show up in the world.
I love doing this work. This is what I am here for and I know that what I do is making a difference in the lives of those who work with me.
Other than retreats or gatherings, I use Zoom for coaching. This gives you, the client, the flexibility for when, where, and how you want to have your coaching.
There are more details on the website about the following:
Just for You Coaching
Join me in one-on-one sessions where we will get curious about your priorities, values, goals, needs, wants, and the next steps on your leadership journey.
Ask me about the 10 session Leadership Journey coaching package!
Team Coaching
I coach leadership teams that want to make a difference with why and how they do their work. If your team is ready to go big and beautiful (and really isn’t this why we get up in the morning?), then let’s talk.
Board Coaching
How a board works together and works with the CEO or executive director (ED) sets the culture for and shapes the success of not-for-profits, community-based organizations, and public libraries.
This is too important to leave to chance, so let’s work together and make it purposeful.
Cohort Coaching
Imagine you and four to six of your colleagues and friends joining me, your guide and coach, in a confidential online group experience devoted to setting and celebrating professional aspirations and goals, being accountable and supportive, and cultivating and nurturing the habits, beliefs, and leadership stories that will energize you and your work.
Doing this work is a privilege that each of you makes possible. Thank you for telling others about the Project, this newsletter, and my coaching services.
