I leave feeling so empowered, you provide a different perspective. It’s been transformative for me. – Coaching Client, UNC Health.
Hi, I’m Abby. As an Executive and Leadership Coach, I partner with leaders to sharpen their presence, expand their influence, and lead with confidence—even in the toughest conversations. I also help leaders navigate transitions and complex situations involving ambiguity and competing demands. In my work with leadership teams, I help them build their capacity to engage in difficult conversations.
Do you know the impact your presence has on those around you? What could change if you approached difficult conversations with confidence and ease? “How do I know if my challenge is about me or the system?”
Being a leader can be challenging. Sometimes it feels like you’re In over your head. That means that the skills that got you here may no longer serve you, as your environment gets more complex. Or you might feel alone.
You need an ally, someone to listen attentively, without judgment, to what puzzles or challenges you.
Listening, being empathic and asking powerful questions – it’s what I do best.
How clients describe the coaching experience:
This was very useful. I’ve had 3 other coaches, I didn’t find it as useful. You know where I need to go more than they did. Not everybody understands everyone so well.
Department Chair, UNC Health
You’re a good listener and you ask excellent questions. I’ve achieved more clarity in a half hour talking with you than in the last week.
Christina Gorczynski, Executive Director, Impact Austin.
You’re doing a great job. I’m trying to develop these skills; some of these things are hard and some are hard to talk about, but you have a great demeanor. I don’t think I would have improved these behaviors if you hadn’t brought that up for me. Your feedback has been a big help to me.
