Executive coaching is a proven method to increase productivity, establish goals, maintain accountability and achieve results. Using the world-renowned Strengths Based Leadership model developed by The Gallup Organization, Laurie Baedke equips others to understand their unique, natural talents and increase personal and professional fulfillment.

Many words come to mind when the word “coach” is mentioned: mentor…..tutor……instructor.
Really, a coach is all of these things and more. A coach’s success is measured solely by the success of their clients, whose ability to achieve higher levels of performance, service, or fulfillment is a direct result of powerful introspection, understanding of self, and application of the tools provided throughout the coaching relationship.

The coaching process typically includes:

• an initial evaluation of the client, with their direction, using either interviews or the StrengthsFinder™ talent assessment tool.
• a process that elicits from our client the highest-impact, explicit, measurable business, leadership development and / or professional goals with the greatest meaning to them.
• coaching conversations foster discovery and dialogue about challenges, relationships, what is working and what is not, making changes to improve results, removing roadblocks, solving problems, developing new habits, and achieving greater success. Sessions can be held in person or via telephone.

In addition to work with corporate teams and established executives, Laurie is deeply committed to cultivating growth and development in emerging leaders. If you are a full-time student, a recent graduate from an accredited university, or are in the first year of your career, we offer reduced fees for individual coaching.
