Leadership Coaching

I just completed Allison McCarthy‘s professional coaching session with a group of peers at similar career stages. The techniques we identified and practiced during these impactful group coaching sessions provided me with skills unique to my current and potential professional path. We used examples from our own professional experiences to discuss approaches and solutions. Each session we walked away with “homework” to put into action these tools and to further refine our desired career progression. We should all take time to invest in our professional development, particularly with an experienced and trusted advisor like Allison.

I had the opportunity to be connected with Allison when I was considering making a change in my current job situation.  The decision to make a change was a difficult one for me as I found myself with less career in front of me than I did behind me and I wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing.  Aside from being able to tap into her incredible resume of experience, it was important for me to work with a woman who could understand the issues and complexities that women face in healthcare administration.  Her approach of real-world problem solving, situational coaching, coupled with knowledge of current business periodicals and publications, helped me continue to grow, open my eyes to new approaches, and different schools of thoughts.  My work with Allison helped me gracefully transition from my old job of nearly 10 years into a fantastic career promotion with confidence, curiosity, and success.  I am grateful to have her coaching expertise, have recommended her to other colleagues and will regularly  come back to her for a tune-up. 

Allison was instrumental in coaching me to become a more effective leader.  She has vast experience in all aspects of healthcare & she always has great ideas or practical solutions no matter how complex or difficult the situation. The time I spent with her for our coaching sessions were the most enlightening and enjoyable of my working weeks.  She validated all of my good ideas, gave wise counsel as to how I can improve on my communication and ideas, and provided a great sounding board for any complex or difficult situations especially those involving multiple stakeholders.  I would highly recommend Allison’s coaching services to any healthcare leader who wants to improve on their skillsets as well as have a highly experienced sounding board on how to tackle any difficult situations.
