EXPERT TO LEADER COACHING

Helping experienced professionals become great leaders

Our Expert to Leader Coaching program is designed to help people grow from technical expert to the leader of a team.

Develop a new set of skills and way of being

In the knowledge economy, professional individual contributors often don’t move into their first leadership role until they are well into their careers. To reach high levels of professional competence as a lawyer, doctor, teacher, actuary, engineer, allied health professional or architect takes years of work experience on top of years of study. By then, people are well trained in the disciplines, content and mind-set of the technical expert. When they find themselves the leader of a team it can be challenging to make the necessary transition from the mindset and way of being of a professional expert to a leader of people, sometimes the leader of people who a month ago were their professional peers.
