High Performance Coaching

High performance coaching explores all the ways you can reach heightened and sustained levels of performance and potential in your career. Based in your current needs, I will customize the coaching experience uniquely to your business and individual client goals and we will draw on elements of high performance. Even though some people interpret the term high performance to be solely about achieving and accomplishing professionally, it's really a holistic approach that works to bring the best of you to the forefront in all areas of your life with a focus on leadership in the workplace. This program combined with Andrea Laurie’s coaching services doesn’t just teach concepts, it develops people.

‍

What makes this program different

High Performance Coaching for Leaders is designed to help the client reach higher performance in all areas of their life. There is a set of specific questions that are followed in each unique session. Each session also has a training component, where Andrea teaches the client a new habit, tool or concept that furthers their education and growth in that area. In short, there is a curriculum in High Performance Coaching for Leaders, a true roadmap for progress that allows the coach and client to consistently feel that each session is adding value and advancing the client both personally and professionally.

Meeting Halifax based clients in person and traveling for an initial meeting are both options.
