I’m an ICF certified executive coach with a “Big 4” consulting background. My experience developing
leaders at Ernst & Young and client organizations has made me a sought after coach for senior
executives and their teams in Fortune 500 organizations, specifically in the financial services, hi tech,
and hospitality industries as well as DOD and other Federal agencies. I support clients to:
• Accelerate growth of potential successors and shorten the learning curve as they go through
transition and unprecedented change,
• Grow leaders strategically, close capability gaps, and inspire
others to fulfill their mission,
• Grow their executive presence and position themselves for
promotion,
• Build meaningful partnerships where difficulties are overcome and
commitment is maintained,
• Maintain trusting relationships with their leadership team,
colleagues, peers, and stakeholders,
• Resolve conflict and increase workforce commitment, productivity, engagement,
and customer satisfaction.
My organization development experience spans over 20 years. I have enhanced and built strategic
organizations by designing and implementing critical developmental assignments including executive
retreats, led large-scale change initiatives, and established organizational structures through top
decision maker and offsite facilitation.
Coaching Approach
I am known for my warmth, humor and down-to-earth style. I work in collaboration with leaders to
bring forth their wisdom and intelligence to find answers that fit their career aspirations, work
environment, personal values and leadership style. My approach is deliberate, thoughtful, and
engages clients in a process of discovery and renewed clarity and optimism to overcome challenges
and achieve their greatest potential. They are able to look into their blind spots and replace
ineffective behaviors with those that support their success as they gain new perspectives and
alternatives while building actions that pave the way for success. I am able to determine where
resistance prevents people from making changes and ask powerful questions to break through old
defenses. Clients are held accountable to put into practice what they’ve learned by “experimenting”
with new behaviors that support their development and growth.
Sample Leadership Engagements
A highly placed security official at the White House was faced with challenges around navigating the
political landscape of the administration as he transitioned into his new position. His former
collaborative style wasn’t working in the new environment and was in stark contrast to the autocratic
leader he served. I coached him to align with the top down leadership and adjust his collaborative
style to align with the organizational structure. He employed tools to increase his communication with
high-level executives and converted stakeholders into champions for his success.
A high profile senior executive faced numerous challenges as he worked to build a strong
organization with a solid vision and mission to fulfill agency priorities. I supported him to accelerate
the organization’s growth as they went through the transition, resolve embedded conflict and
increase team commitment. I coached him on his ability to affect how others read his authenticity
and developed his capacity to accurately read his leadership team and better discern their level of
trust, commitment and satisfaction. Over time, he improved morale and transformed the culture.
Testimonial
“Having just completed a several month coaching experience with Judy, I found it to be much more
valuable than several other encounters with coaches I have had in the past. Rather than just
asking questions to guide self-exploration, Judy not only did that but she also helped with
suggestions and anecdotes from others she had assisted. We worked through several actual issues
in virtually real time, with pre-event discussions and post-event hot washes that helped to draw
out larger lessons. She looked beyond immediate situations to draw out whole-life lessons to help
me understand why certain situations are difficult. This was extremely helpful in learning more
about myself that will help with future situations.” Agency Director, Department of Defense
