Now that “do more with less” has become the rallying cry of global business, many executives and managers are pulled in multiple, sometimes conflicting, directions as they attempt to stretch their limited manpower and resources. As they struggle with bottom-line expectations, staff reductions, a disengaged workforce, globalization and more, is it any wonder they have little time left over for their own professional growth? Even the most motivated managers are often forced to let their leadership potential and skills enhancement slide while dealing with more pressing issues.
That’s where executive coaching can fill the gap. Coaching gives executives the permission – if only for one hour a week – to focus on their own growth. And that growth can have exponential benefits for the entire organization. Libby Gill & Company offers professional coaching for executives and managers in these core groups:
- New Leaders
- Mid-level Management
- Women Executives
- Teams
- Executives experiencing challenges

Approach
Coaching generally takes place via regularly scheduled phone calls. But it doesn’t stop there. Libby will do whatever is necessary to take your team to their highest potential. The process generally starts with a Personal Assessment, 360 Interviews with key staff and stakeholders, then ongoing coaching sessions designed to meet specific behavioral outcomes.
Libby makes herself available between scheduled sessions for calls or emails to guide the client through any timely, pressing or urgent issues. Calls are scheduled at the client’s convenience and may be cancelled and rescheduled (within the same month) whenever business need dictates. It is also possible to schedule in-person coaching sessions if desired.
Libby offers one complimentary “coaching test drive” by phone so the client may learn more about the coaching process and see if Libby’s style is a fit for their needs and temperament. Coaching may be held by phone, skype or in-person (some restrictions may apply to in-person coaching). The coaching process includes (but is not limited to):
- Personal Assessment Plan
- Scheduled coaching calls
- As-needed attention via phone, email or skype
- 360 Assessments
- Regular team interaction
- Unlimited e-mail access
- Access to any of Libby’s public events and seminars
