Leadership Coaching

About the Program

Individual Leadership Coaching

Leadership at any level can feel isolating. Having the right support can make all the difference.

Through our individual coaching program, you’ll receive structured, one-on-one support from an ICF-certified coach to help you grow both professionally and personally—guided by your own goals, values, and lived experience.

Who is this program for?

Our leadership coaching is designed for professionals who manage staff and/or programs and are looking to grow their leadership skills.

It is especially well-suited for senior leaders, such as Executive Directors, who may not have many opportunities for dedicated, one-on-one leadership support. Directors and Managers looking to deepen their leadership practice are also encouraged to apply.

If your work focuses on preventing or responding to domestic and sexual violence, this program is for you. 

Why participate?

What you’ll gain

Through free individual leadership coaching, you’ll have dedicated, confidential space to reflect, problem-solve, and grow as a leader.

In one-on-one sessions, you can:

  • Work through complex or challenging situations in your role
  • Clarify your values, priorities, and leadership approach
  • Deepen your understanding of yourself and how you relate to others
  • Build practical strategies and plans for action
  • Strengthen your confidence and capacity as a leader

Coaching is a collaborative, client-driven process. You’ll set your own goals and focus areas, with support from an experienced coach to help you move forward with clarity and intention.

Participants will receive twelve 50-minute, one-on-one coaching sessions over the course of four months.
