Work with Me

Every engagement starts the same way.

​

A diagnostic conversation. Not a sales call. A structured conversation to understand what you're actually navigating before anything else is decided.

​

Most coaches lead with a program. I lead with questions. The presenting issue is rarely the real one — and building a coaching plan before we know what's real is how coaching fails.

​

If there's a fit after that conversation, we build from there.

​

Who This Is For

​

→ Directors, VPs and above six to twenty-four months into a new or expanded role

→ High performers preparing for promotion who want to close the gap before the offer comes

→ Leaders navigating significant transitions — new organization, expanded scope, shifting strategy, market disruption

→ Leaders who want a thinking partner who will push back, not just validate

​

How It Works

​

Step 1 — Diagnostic Conversation A sixty-minute conversation to understand what you're navigating. No agenda other than clarity. This is a mutual evaluation — I'm determining whether I can actually help, and you're determining whether this is the right fit.

​

Step 2 — Proposal If there's fit, I build a proposal around what the diagnostic surfaced. Not a standard package. A structured engagement built around what's real.

​

Step 3 — Engagement A six-month structured coaching engagement. Typically bi-weekly sessions with asynchronous support between sessions. Built around your specific transition, not a predetermined curriculum.

​

What Leaders Say

​

"Joel is very good at reflecting back what I say and allowing our conversations to go deeper. He also has a way of listening for thoughts and ideas and bringing in larger themes." — Leadership Development Coach, Northwestern University

​

"Joel has a unique way of directly challenging me to reflect more critically on my behaviors while maintaining an authentically compassionate tone." — Vice President, Fortune 500 MedTech Company 

​

If any of this sounds familiar, the right next step is a conversation.

​

Not a sales call. A diagnostic conversation — to determine whether what you're navigating is something I can actually help with.
