“I wanted to have a stronger and more powerful voice both at board meetings and in other work situations.”
“I started working with Jo because I realized that I was at a place in my career where I wanted to have a stronger and more powerful voice both at board meetings and in other work situations, and I wanted to do some purposeful planning about my next career steps. As the only lawyer at my firm, I play many different roles and there is never downtime for me to engage in career development (or so I thought) – working with a coach has been instrumental in forcing me to be both more strategic and focused on my own leadership development and allocation of time. My work with Jo has been transformative for me. I am more confident and positive overall so that I express my opinions and expertise in high-level meetings while more easily ignoring those negative voices in my head. I’m also setting limits with others at work to focus on my highest priorities for my company as well as making time for my personal aspirations. I would recommend Jo because she was able to provide objective observations, advice, bite-sized deliverables, and encouragement as we tackled the priorities that were important to me during our work together.”
