Service
Executive coaching for CEOs and senior leaders.
Executive coaching is a confidential thought partnership for the decisions that cannot be delegated: stepping into a bigger role, influence with peers and boards, difficult conversations, and accountability that matches the stakes. Michele works with CEOs, business owners, and senior leaders one-on-one, and with employers sponsoring coaching for a key leader. You work directly with Michele throughout the engagement. Michele works in person with leaders in Orangevale, Folsom and the greater Sacramento area, and coaches clients across the U.S. via Zoom.

Situations this fits
If one of these sounds familiar, you are in the right place.
- You have just stepped into a bigger role, and the habits that got you here will not get you there.
- There is a difficult conversation you keep postponing because the stakes feel high.
- Two parts of the organization keep colliding, and you are stuck in the middle.
- You notice your own assumptions narrowing the options you can see.
- You want a confidential place to think out loud before you decide.
What working together involves
What you can expect, in order.
- Conversations focused on your situation, not a curriculum.
- Goals you set, with support and tracking if you want them.
- Candid questions that test the stories you are telling yourself.
- Accountability you ask for, at the level you choose.
- Practical next steps you can act on between sessions.
- Complete confidentiality. What you say stays in the room.

A few honest answers
Is coaching the same as consulting?
No. Coaching centers on your thinking and your decisions. Consulting looks at how the work gets done. Many engagements start as one and stay in scope on purpose; you and Michele will agree on the difference before starting.
How long does an engagement last?
It depends on what you are working on. Some leaders work with Michele for a few months around a transition. Others continue over a year. You decide the pace together.
Is what I share confidential?
Yes. Coaching conversations are confidential.
How do we start?
Book a 20-minute discovery call or send a message through the contact form. You do not need to know which service you need.
