Working Together
Working with Carrie
It’s important to me—just as I know it’s important to you—that we work together well.
And I want to be transparent about the how and what. As we work together, we will identify the professional path you want to create and design how to elevate your capacity for success and life-long learning. We will identify obstacles and craft workable strategies that teach you how to thrive, to move from bold ideas to bold actions.
Imagine this: you want to climb a massive mountain and have no idea how. Now imagine you have someone who helps you plan which direction you want to go, what equipment you need to take, how to train for the climb, and then cheers you on while you get ready, get going, climb higher, and achieve that summit. Now imagine that same feeling in your professional setting. That’s coaching…everyone’s journey to the summit is different, but we all benefit from someone to help us get ourselves to the top.
Coaching benefits both employees and the organizational culture and leads to higher rates of employee retention, satisfaction and productivity. Organizations with a culture of coaching report higher morale among employees and a higher degree of meaningful success among employees at all levels. Helping you realize your professional dreams is my calling, and I apply my authentic insight and enthusiasm to your goals and successes. I am passionate about partnering with clients to help them flourish into the leaders they are becoming or can become. I wouldn’t be here if I weren’t grounded in the values of service and leadership, and those values will always guide our coaching sessions and time together.
Make your "good" into "your very best"
We are never done learning. Here’s how you can benefit from coaching:
- Navigate the transitions in your career or your role with agility and grace
- Reflect upon your purpose, meaning and calling, and go beyond the day to day
- Take care of yourself by investing in your own health and happiness

1:1 Coaching
Work to sustainably build your professional capacity
All of us have innate skills and the desire to follow our passion. For more than 25 years, I have been a teacher, coach and mentor to leaders searching for more ways to serve their work and community. Partnering with people to help them grow into what they have envisioned for themselves is my passion. My unique skills help others determine their goals and take charge of their own development. I do this by posing the right questions that invite and inspire you to reflect on your journey and what you want it to be. And my guarantee is that our 1:1 coaching sessions include fun and laughter.
Leadership Development
Enable the success of a team in changing and challenging circumstances
Your success is what we’ll celebrate and plan as you reach your goals. As the founding director of an academic program in leadership studies, I am a turnkey expert in the underpinnings of how leadership works. The skills I used to teach leaders to create strong teams both in followership and interpersonal dynamics are ones I will bring to your team. My experience as a practitioner coaching people on how to be terrific leaders – and terrific followers – is decades in the making.
