As a former CEO and a long-time visionary executive with an extensive career in leadership, strategic planning and execution, community relations, building teams, and workplace culture, I am honored to be able to provide executive and leadership coaching services as a certified leadership coach.

​

During my tenure in various leadership roles, it was my good fortune to work for and with many excellent leaders who provided me guidance, support, and experiences to help me advance in my professional and life journey. Their commitment provided me with development, professional growth, and opportunities for advancing my career in ways that were rewarding and impactful. I learned early on successful leadership is driven by values, integrity, humility, and emotional intelligence all built around the success of people.  

​

As a CEO, I was fortunate to have a leadership team and board that enabled us to achieve substantial success as an organization while being recognized as a Top Workplace for five consecutive years and receiving numerous national and regional awards for excellence.

​

This journey also enabled me to be a visible community leader, locally, regionally, and nationally, including the honor of serving on many boards and ultimately as the Board chair of several organizations including the Chamber of Commerce of Southern New Jersey and the New Jersey Hospital Association.

Since leaving my CEO role, I wanted to consider how to best utilize my leadership experience, knowledge, governance expertise, relationship building, and creating top-performing workplace cultures to pay it forward for leaders in their career, and life journey.

​

As a person who was fortunate to have my own independent leadership coaches during my career and the impact they made on me, I decided that becoming a leadership coach was the perfect way to pay it forward to others.

​

After taking an extensive coaching leaders’ program, despite having a career leading over 5,000 people and over 200 management leaders, it was important to learn and balance my experience with new knowledge to become an effective leadership coach. Upon completion of this program, I was honored to achieve status as a certified leadership coach by the International Coaching Federation.

 

Since my coaching journey began, my clients have been from many types of organizations, and leaders at various stages in their careers. It has been exhilarating to work with clients at the CEO level, those moving to become CEOs, people evaluating career transitions, new emerging leaders, and others in the timeframe considering how and when to move into the next chapter in their life and career journey. This last phase can be very challenging, and I know personally how this type of change can best be navigated for the leader and the organization.

 

As the President of ExecUcoach Leadership, it has been rewarding to collaborate with leaders and see the impact that the work they do with a coach helps them develop and excel for their own success.

In addition, as a Professor of Practice at Rowan University, Rohrer College of Business, and co-hosts the Practical Leadership Podcast with the University, it is more evident that the ability to make an impact on future leaders is needed to make a positive difference for their success.

I would welcome the opportunity to connect with you or your organization to evaluate the benefits of partnering with ExecUcoach Leadership to provide value for individuals and organizations on this important aspect of their journey.
