SARAH HOOD LEADERSHIP SERVICES

Helping leaders be better leaders.

I work with leaders who want to take their leadership to a new or different level.

Do you want to create change, engage your team, or create something big and important?

Do you want to make your workplace somewhere that every employee feels they belong?

Maybe you just want to reconnect with the joy in your work as a leader.

Whatever your goal, I’m here to help.

OVERVIEW OF SERVICES

If you lead people, leadership IS the real work.

Coaching

Coaching helps leaders identify and leverage their strengths, values and unique skills to achieve their goals. As an ICF PCC certified coach I offer a range of coaching services.

Ways to work together:

  • Individual Coaching

  • Leadership/Executive Coaching

  • Team Coaching

  • Coaching skills training for managers

  • Mentor Coaching for coaches

  • Each coaching engagement involves a free exploratory conversation to learn what coaching is, what it isn’t and if it is the right approach for you.

    A coaching agreement is then drafted in accordance with the International Coaching Federation practices and code of ethics which clarifies roles, responsibilities, confidentiality, privacy, and the terms and scope of the services.

    A coaching contract will cover a series of regular coaching sessions, either face to face or online over a specified period of time, usually 3 to 6 months.

Facilitation

Workplaces should be nurturing, creative spaces, where employees can bring their best, be their best, and expect the best. I offer professional facilitation services to help teams think together, learn together and make decisions together.

Current offerings include:

  • Team Building

  • Team Retreats

  • Strategic Planning

  • Lumina Learning Sessions

  • Team Coaching

  • I will work with you to identify your goals and outcomes for the session and will craft a proposal that includes a combination of skills building, dialogue and engaging activities.

    Each contract includes an initial exploratory conversation, a draft proposal, one client meeting to review the proposal, and both a detailed facilitator agenda and a simple participant agenda for distribution.

    Normally the client arranges facilities and hospitality.

    Lumina Learning psychometric tools include an individual portrait and debrief plus group facilitated sessions to help teams communicate better, value diversity, leverage team strengths and support each other during stressful situations.

    Lumina Lumina Leader portraits also offer a 360 feedback option.

Leadership Development

I offer a range of courses and programs for individual leaders and leadership teams to lead their organization through transformational change in complex times.

Current offerings include:

  • Leading High-Performing Teams

  • Leading Transformative Change

  • Coaching Skills for Leaders

  • Leadership Team Coaching

  • I provide limited customization of current offerings or create new fully customized materials based on your needs.

    Contracts include an initial exploratory meeting and will identify follow up meetings based on the extent of customization. Delivery can be online or face to face.

    Materials remain the intellectual property of Sarah Hood Leadership unless contracted otherwise.

    Normally the client arranges facilities and hospitality.

    Leadership Team Coaching is a form of ongoing team development that involves working with a team for a period of 4 to 6 months to build the team’s capacity to lead together.
