ADA Project Coordinator, UNC Charlotte

I've known Anne for years, in a different capacity, and never tried coaching before. I was amazed at the progress I made through Anne's professional guidance. Anne was able to help me identify so much more about myself than I expected, and she guided me successfully in identifying my strengths and creating a tangible, realistic plan to achieve a specific career goal. As a result of coaching with Anne, I am much more aware of my talents and skills, and I'm more confident in promoting my contributions to my intended audience. I'm still in awe at the progress I made with Anne in just six sessions!

What is different about you since you started coaching? 

With Anne's help, I've learned to better identify my strengths and skill sets. I recognize my value to my work environment, and I'm more confident to advocate for myself.

What did you like the most about your coaching sessions? 

My ELI results were really informative, and Anne's guidance in creating my mission statement was fantastic! Mission statements are always so hard to create, but Anne made it easy.

How would you describe your coaching experience to others? 

I gained so much more than I ever expected from coaching. Initially, I was a little nervous about needing to be "accountable" to Anne. But the process was so nurturing and affirming, I realized that being accountable to MYSELF was not only what mattered, but was so achievable. I loved how Anne could ask me questions that really helped me get to the heart of my goals, and the processes to reach my goals.
