Through more than 25 years of progressive leadership experience, I have built a strong connection to people as an executive, leader, mentor and coach. I help individuals to clarify their own goals and priorities and to find their unique path forward. I have broad, formal training which has informed my work in corporate life, as a board member, teacher and volunteer. My training, experience and entrepreneurial mindset now anchor me as a professional coach and consultant.
I am passionate about the creativity and power of teams. The combination of different individuals to form a team in pursuit a common goal generates energy, out of the box solutions and personal growth. Having successfully led, redesigned or started-up more than 20 teams (and been a member of others), I have experience and tools I want to share with you.
My goal is to leverage my experience in leadership and quality to be the coach and consultant you need on your own journey.
"Julie skillfully blended the tangible and intangible to deliver excellent coaching. Regarding the former, she was organized, diligent, and well-equipped with practical coaching tools – doing her 'homework' before every session, and additionally implementing structured interactions with my management to best deliver for me and the company. Apropos intangible factors, Julie possesses an understated but incisive persona that enables comfortable conversations on potentially uncomfortable topics, while maintaining focus on the coaching deliverables. Overall, she fostered an orderly self-discovery, rather than a spoon-feeding of improvement recipes. Lastly, her technical background allowed her to coach within a realistic understanding of our business needs. She definitely helped my journey of self-improvement toward improved performance – highly recommended." VP Research
"Julie has been a tremendous help in providing me with a sounding board. As the CEO of a start up, things move pretty quickly and to know that I have time with Julie to discuss my biggest ideas and challenges has been pivotal in the growth I have experienced. I value her coaching style and unique insights and observations. She is a big part of why I am where I am today and I could not be more grateful." Lianne Kim
"Julie's coaching style is grounded, connected, and collaborative. She is strong in evoking awareness, actively listening, and creating a coaching container that allows for exploration. She brings warmth and connectedness to her coaching that attunes to her client. She listens well and is able to bring in what she learns over time about the client. I felt her partnership every second of our coaching. As a result of her coaching, I was able to get to a much deeper level of awareness and action. I was able to connect with my voice and identity in a way that resulted in integration and sustainable change." Julie S
"Julie is curious, calm, and thought-provoking. She did a great job of clarifying and reframing. She also kept the bigger picture in mind ... to remind me of my intentions. Even while life distractions were going on, Julie helped me see that I could focus on my business. She also helped me see that I could not give away so much." CNH
