Executive Coaching for business + nonprofit leaders!

MAKING A DIFFERENCE THROUGH YOUR LEADERSHIP!

As achievers, many of us aim for a leadership role in our business or nonprofit, knowing that we can make a significant difference from there. We want to help others grow and develop, improve systems and efficiencies, and make meaningful changes that positively impact our teams, organizations, clients, communities, and beyond.

Yet once we’re in such a role, or once we’ve been there for a while, we can feel a surprising sense of:

‘This isn’t what I expected.’

Change may take longer than we’d hoped. Meetings fill up every available slot in our calendars. And it can become harder and harder to find time to complete our own work and responsibilities on top of everything else.

We can also feel unexpectedly alone.

If you can relate, I can help.

I’m Dr. Christine Hegstad – you can call me Christi – and I’ve been partnering with business and nonprofit leaders for over 20 years to work, lead, and succeed with meaning and purpose. I have also been a business owner for all that time, and a leader for even longer, so I understand firsthand the joys and challenges that accompany these important roles we’re fortunate enough to hold.

As a professional certified coach, I am an objective and highly experienced partner who can help you serve as the incredible leader you are, model for and develop the leaders around you, succeed in your own professional and personal endeavors – all while maintaining your positivity, honoring your top priorities, and fulfilling your desire to make a difference.

Sound impossible? Believe me, it’s not. I’ve got a proven track record of success – over two decades’ worth now – and I’d love to partner with you to make your ideal vision a reality, too.

WHAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE THROUGH COACHING:

One of my favorite aspects of one-on-one coaching is that we take your unique strengths, goals, values, and personality into account to customize an action plan just for you. That being said, here are a few examples of what my coaching expertise has helped clients achieve (and can help you achieve, too!):

* Build a culture of positivity, achievement, and meaningful work.

* Define your personal leadership brand and help develop more leaders around you.

* Authentically enhance workplace engagement, purposeful productivity, and satisfaction.

* Clarify your personal, departmental, and/or organizational vision, mission, values, and guiding principles.

* Bring out the best in your self and your team through coaching-style communication.

* Create systems and strategies to reach revenue and/or fundraising goals.

* Host retreats, launch programs, and support flourishing among employees and contributors.

* Identify and pursue your own professional development goals, plans, and path.

Throughout coaching, clients also repeatedly express the ‘intangible’ benefits they experience like increased clarity, higher confidence, more intentional action, improved communication, better time management, a stronger sense of purpose, a more positive mindset, and so much more.

And we have a lot of fun along the way, too!

DECIDING IF COACHING IS RIGHT FOR YOU:

If this resonates with you and you’re serious about your executive, leadership, and personal development, your next best step is to contact my office and set up a complimentary Discovery Session. During this brief phone call, I’ll ask a few questions about what you might be seeking with coaching, answer any questions you may have, and share which coaching options would likely serve you best based on your unique goals and situation.

I work with a select number of people in private coaching, so if openings are not available when you reach out, we’ll let you know when the next likely opportunity will be.

***********

LET’S MAKE A DIFFERENCE TOGETHER!

You’ve reached this level of leadership because you are capable, intelligent, and have what it takes to succeed. But that doesn’t mean you have to figure it all out yourself or go it alone.

Coaching can help shorten your learning curve, provide tools and resources that you can use for a lifetime, and help draw out the best in you so you can help draw out the best in others and make the difference you’re here to make.

Request your Discovery Session today and let’s help you flourish in leadership!

Thank you for your coaching, belief, and encouragement that has led me to play big in 2018. There is no way I would have had the same mindset, confidence, and goals for myself this year after my cancer battle if I hadn't hired you as my coach. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
