“The Why”

For the last 30 years, it has been my greatest joy to support students, families and staff to shape future generations through my dedication to high expectations and excellence. One of the key learnings from my career is the importance of growing more leaders to continue to serve our school communities with strong and polished leaders to carry on this work. At Educational Excellence Consulting & Coaching, we are committed to supporting our collaboration partners with diamond level excellence and engaging professional learning experiences to grow the leaders of today, and tomorrow. This includes support with implementation, support with initiatives and projects and mentoring and executive coaching to further grow and polish their potential. - Dr. G

Executive Coaching

Executive coaching is a portal to growth that is person-focused versus problem-focused. It is the coach partnering with the client in thought-provoking and creative processes to inspire the client to maximize their potential. It is systematic and structured with opportunities for improvements within the structure. It is forward-thinking with one part insight and one part action. Executive coaching is not consulting that delivers a fix, it is not mentoring that accelerates learning, nor is it feedback or therapy. The executive coaching process is designed to help leaders improve their leadership skills and performance. It is designed to help the client achieve their goals and improve their effectiveness. These sessions are conducted one on one.
