About Chelsea:

I value having fun, exploring new things, accepting and loving community, getting outside, and focusing on what matters. In work I am focused on helping leaders, companies, entrepreneurs, and coaches turn ideas into practices to achieve their goals.

Why Coaching

I have the unique background of exclusively working for or on c-suite and leadership teams in a variety of industries, with services and products, both B2B and B2C. I have worked at 100+ year organizations in 5 different countries and also companies growing rapidly based in the US. I am very skilled at systems thinking and problem-solving and prefer working hands-on in a person-to-person collaborative environment. My strong drive and ambition to work with others to solve complex problems naturally drew me to the powerful partnership of coaching and my unique experience in c-suite across a variety of industries suited me well for leadership coaching. 

I find leadership coaching endlessly fulfilling and exciting because of the nuance and complexity of leadership. Specifically the unique challenges and opportunities when leading people who are multi-faceted with lives and needs while also driving towards the goals and KPIs of the business.

Working with Chelsea

My style as a coach is a unique balance. I am 60% directive and 40% partnering. I like to create an environment to ask thought-provoking open questions for my clients to dive deep into their goals and own self-awareness, but am also comfortable being more directive and hands-on if it serves the topic at hand.

My communication style is direct and challenging while also being fun, working to find the light in difficult situations to search for opportunities over problems. I often say people are weird and always changing. Leadership is a practice of awareness and experimentation to observe progress toward goals not a skill for mastery. 

Together we will explore to discover opportunities and develop tangible next steps and impactful changes so you can observe progress toward your goals.
