Coaching client archive
Mayor X had been appointed Mayor in her second term of office as a local government councillor. She acknowledged this position required her to amplify her leadership skills, particularly her knowledge of the local government governance framework so she could make better informed decisions and provide direction to her fellow councillors. Mayor X also had a desire to learn more about team-building and ways she could address fractures within the elected body that had developed. Mayor X had a VERY busy schedule and large workload.
The elevate coaching package allowed her the time to deeply integrate the learning she gained with her coach. Mayor X particularly enjoyed having access to her coach via the voice memo App so she could get real-time access to her coach to sound-board ideas on the go.
