OUR UNIQUE INTUITIVE APPROACH

Many business coaches and leadership consultants slap the same, one-size-fits-all formula and tools onto all of their clients. Not us! Shine Your Light’s intuitive leadership development coaches listen deeply to their and your gut instincts, quickly cutting through the “analysis paralysis” and reactive emotions to the core problem and potential solutions, saving you hours of otherwise wasted energy and time

3 Stages to Success – A Simple, Doable Process that Works

We have learned from over 25 years of intuitive business and leadership coaching that in order to achieve any leadership objective, leaders and organizations must go through three stages:

1. Blocks: Identify & overcome your blind spots
2. Basics: Return to your mission & purpose
3. Bravery: Take risks to achieve your goals

Our secret: ensuring no stage is skipped. There’s no point in developing another round of goals if you haven’t yet uncovered the dynamics that keep preventing you from achieving them. Addressing all three steps, we draw from multiple organizational development, psychological, and leadership modalities and tools to develop a 100% customized needs assessment, action plan, ongoing check-ins, and evaluation to ensure lasting change and success.

Life Cycle Approach

We support individual leaders and organizations across all sectors and at all stages of development. Recognizing that leadership needs vary at different stages, we offer a tailored “life cycle” approach:

• New leaders and organizations are eager to contribute to the world, yet often lack the fundamental leadership skills to make the impact they desire.

• Many mid-life leaders and organizations are unhappy with some or all parts of their operations and impact and struggle with work-life balance.

• Veteran leaders and organizations often seek to share their wisdom and experience in a mentorship role.

Keepin'It Real and Making It Fun

With trainings like “Who’s Steering this Ship?” and “Team Members from Hell,” we help you find your sense of humor again while engaging in serious change. Our teachers and coaches have a unique talent for communicating complex, profound wisdom in a down-to-earth way that tells it straight and instantly makes sense. We believe in “practical passion,” teaching ways to balance your goals with your everyday realities.
