"Each time we met Bill had a plan of approach to achieve our established goals. I am now much more comfortable addressing weaknesses that have impeded my management growth process."
The Sherpa certified executive coach works collaboratively with both an organization's executive contact (the "boss") and a designated executive or manager to improve performance, address specific behavioral weaknesses or to prepare the executive for advancement.
Sherpa Coaching is individually tailored for each client and is not training or a "canned program." Through weekly one-on-one meetings Coach Bill guides clients (both corporate and self-pay) to change, develop and grow, even in difficult circumstances.

Who Benefits From Executive Coaching?
In brief, both the client organization and the executive being coached benefit. Sherpa clients seek sustained change of executive or managerial performance. We offer a customized solution using a proven, defined process that addresses issues such as:
problem solving
communications
listening
non-productive behavior
creating enthusiasm
leadership
decision making
time management
image & presence
personal vision
Why Does It Work?
Sherpa coaching is a process driven endeavor. We always enlist prospective commitment from both the 'boss' and executive being coached before we begin an engagement. Our engagements are:
precise: always addressing a problem, not a symptom or feeling
work related: if it's too personal, we don't continue
in the present: not in the past
possible: a change in behavior must fix the problem
Sherpa Executive Coaching - When Does It Work?
Many who have been recently promoted, or are being prepared for corporate advancement, may significantly benefit from executive coaching. The process also helps executives or managers who need to work on a weakness or derailing behavior that is holding them back, keeping them from achieving greater success and value to the organization.
Where Does This Coaching Take Place?
It is important to speak with clients - preferably on a weekly basis - at a time that enables constructive dialogue separated from the many distractions at the work site.
How Much Does Sherpa Executive Coaching Cost?
My professional fees are structured depending on the scope of corporate responsibility
(i.e., president, vice president, manager, division head, etc.) and reasonably
priced for significant client value and return on investment.
