"Spending time to identify and set specific goals around my leadership was very valuable. Checking in over a 6-month period on those goals and adjusting accordingly allowed me to feel like I accomplished a lot over the duration of the coaching series. I also learned from my colleagues sharing their goals, issues and experiences. These conversations helped shed light on the broader organization that weren't top of mind for me."
