Leadership Coaching

What’s it like to be coached by the Affirma team?

Our Lead Coach, Tia B. Coachman creates a safe space to address the fears, goals, and dreams that shape your leadership in a way that offers you grace for not being the perfect Leader and empowers you to be and do better for yourself and the people who follow your leadership.

Our Approach

We aim to awaken the Leader’s potential to maximize their impact on the people and people operations of their business. In our sessions, we’ll work with leaders to design and reimagine, in some cases, their personal approach to conflict resolution, employee engagement, talent management, and collaboration with internal leaders.

Through one-on-one coaching we’ll:

Provide energy-based empowerment coaching with the objective of nurturing confidence, affirming sphere of control and power, and guiding transformational growth.
Each leader will take the Energy Leadership Index (ELI) Assessment within a specified timeframe. After which, the Coach will analyze the report and debrief the results during a one-hour session. Following this session, we will begin bi-weekly coaching sessions where the Leader will engage with the seven levels of energy and learn how to access them to overcome current challenges and make the most of current opportunities.

Possibility-Driven Decision Making

We’ll examine our default decision-making methods. We’ll learn when to defy our defaults and how to make room for possibility so that we can solve our people problems more creatively.

Leader as Coach

Leaders will explore the art of coaching for consideration as a leadership style. Using bonafide coaching strategies, leaders will experience through role-play the difference this approach can have during moments of conflict, problem-solving, and change.

Collaborative Leadership

We’ll explore the arrangements of peer leadership and leadership teams in the context of visible healthy, productive relationships. We’ll dive into the impact that collaborative leadership has on employee engagement and retention.

Balancing Empowerment and Accountability

We’ll address the balancing act of leadership – empowering our people while holding them accountable. This balance directly supports setting expectations, managing performance, and rewarding success.

The Making of Leaders

We’ll reflect on the impact that past and current leaders have had on us individually. We’ll audit our own leadership styles and approaches to uncover the impact we are having on the career development of future leaders within our fold.

Centering Equity: Addressing Neurological Core Needs

We’ll introduce the human social behavior framework, BICEPS, coined by Paloma Medina. We’ll learn to acknowledge our own BICEPS and apply the framework to address real-time workplace challenges with equity-centered leadership.

Owning the Responsibility of Leadership

We’ll explore the opportunity and duty that rests with Leaders. Diving deeper into the expansive impact workplace leadership has on the lives and livelihoods of the people in the workforce.

Beyond Management: Humanizing Leadership

In this beginning session, we’ll explore the most crucial commonality that all Leaders share despite industry, classification, experience, or expertise – their own humanity. We start with this exploration for learning how to lead with vulnerability, lead through fear, and lead by recognizing the humanity of all.

Our cohort coaching method which focuses on energy leadership will be introduced in this session to be continued throughout the program.
