I coach senior leaders and the teams they lead. My work pairs real care with the willingness to tell you what I actually see — so the value of our work together lasts long after the engagement ends.
Whether it's one leader, a cohort, a whole team, or a hiring decision, what connects the work is the same: I help people see themselves clearly and act on what they see.
One-to-one work with senior leaders, grounded in real evidence — interviews, observation, and assessments like Hogan, the Leadership Circle Profile, and the Enneagram. We work on the behaviors that make a difference, not personality labels you can't change.
Explore coaching →Multi-session cohort programs for every level — RISE for emerging leaders, Accelerator for mid-level, THRIVE for senior women leaders, and an Executive Team journey. Run one, or build a whole pipeline with a shared language.
Explore the journeys →I read a leadership team the way few people can — pulling together interviews, psychometrics, and your own people data into one honest picture of what's working, what's stuck, and what nobody's saying out loud yet. Then we work it together.
Explore team coaching →Hogan and other validated tools, read in context — for development, for executive search and selection, and for understanding how a team works together. The value is in the interpretation, not the score report.
Explore assessments →I also design workshops and speak on culture, the manager as coach, and leading through change. See facilitation & speaking →
At the heart of every engagement is a habit of self-reflection that keeps working after I'm gone. Here's what that looks like in practice.
I don't soften hard things into euphemism, and I don't flatter. If something is difficult to say, I say it plainly — and I stay with you while you work through it.
What I reflect back to you comes from interviews, observation, and assessment data — not my opinion. You're always free to weigh it for yourself.
People can change what they do. Naming someone as a personality type makes the work feel fixed. We work on patterns you can actually shift.
Whether a team is pointed the same way, coordinated in how it works, and genuinely bought in tells me more than any one leader's profile. We start with safety, then move to the harder conversations.
Out of the blue she would ask me a question that had a profound effect on me. I'm thankful for the open conversations and those transformative moments — they're proving to have a durable effect in both my personal and professional life.
Vice President, AdvertisingThis coaching was absolutely invaluable. Adrienne gave me a vocabulary and self-reflection tools that were incredibly helpful. As a result, I'm now in a better position to coach my team and achieve work/life balance.
Director, MarketingAdrienne is one of a kind. I feel like a transformed leader.
Participant, Women's Leadership Program
After fifteen years in learning and leadership development at Target and Amazon — where every role I held became my new favorite — I fell in love with coaching. Since then I've coached leaders in almost every context, from early-stage startups to the Fortune 500, and I especially love working with growth-stage companies that are scaling fast.
I'm an achiever by nature; these days I'm simply focused on your goals instead of my own — with presence, powerful questions, and the perspective that comes from working with hundreds of leaders over more than two decades. I'm also a wife and a mother of three, so I know first-hand what it takes to carry the fullness of a life with less stress and more joy.
Across Fortune 500 companies, fast-growing startups, government, and non-profits.
A short, no-pressure conversation is the best way to know. Tell me what you're working on, and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right person to help.
