After working with Gayle to identify, amplify, elevate and accelerate my leadership attributes, I cannot recommend highly enough the value of executive leadership coaching.
I first met Gayle Pacchini from Thriving Minds Global in July 2024, as a participant in our organisation’s executive leadership development program. This two-day offsite shone a light on the power of purpose in leadership, asking us each to dig deep on what it was we wanted to be known for as leaders inside and outside of St Andrew’s.
For me, this offsite kicked off a sequence of events that I could not have predicted and the critical success factor was Gayle’s ability to intuit where and when to challenge my assumptions, thought defaults, and assertions – the result was a series of breakthroughs. By guiding me through a rigorous examination of the motivation behind statements I made, I discovered that mindfulness was essential to the success of intentional leadership.
Following this offsite, each ELT member began their six months executive coaching journey with Gayle in a private, safe, and supportive manner. After working with Gayle to identify, amplify, elevate and accelerate my leadership attributes, I cannot recommend highly enough the value of executive leadership coaching.
The Cappfinity Strengths Profile that Gayle coached me through was a catalytic turning point for spotlighting my realised strengths, tapping into my unrealised strengths, identifying my learned behaviours, and addressing my weaknesses. Through several intensive probative workshops, I gained a much keener understanding of my leadership style and - more importantly - my leadership values.
“Understanding that my values fuel my professional investment into the teams I lead and the organisation I work for clarified my focus and sharpened my forward trajectory towards clear and defined goals.”
Executive coaching has dual benefits of developing great leaders as well as equipping them to cultivate the next wave of leadership emerging from your teams.
If you have the makings of a good executive team and you want to develop them into an elite core driving force inspiring the rest of your organisation, externally led executive leadership coaching is an investment from which you’ll gain an incalculable return. Gayle is the coach you want in your corner to shape your ELT into transformative, inspirational leaders.
