Support for Challenging Times

What we are experiencing right now is unprecedented. Traditional ways of working and living are gone. Everyone is adjusting to a new normal – one that’s radically different than we ever imagined. We are working from home, with blurred or non-existent boundaries between work and personal life. Many of us are juggling critical responsibilities in each moment – homeschooling and childcare, supporting spouses and parents, leading teams remotely, supporting clients from afar, trying to get the work done to ensure job security – all while trying to maintain health and some semblance of sanity amidst physical isolation. It’s a perfect storm of trauma, fear, anxiety and uncertainty.

Coaching is one of the most powerful ways you can support yourself and your people during challenging times.

Why? Because coaching: 

  • Provides customized support to prevent overwhelm and burnout, maintain well-being and enhance engagement and performance
  • Helps individuals adapt to change, navigate the unknown and lead others through change
  • Enhances an individual’s self-awareness, confidence and leadership skills
  • Creates opportunities for authentic connection and collaboration between professionals and their clients and teams
  • Creates an avenue for greater connection, normalization of experiences and expanded learning and growth (in a group setting)

Our coaching has always been 100% virtual, and we’ve delivered a majority of our courses virtually as well. Additionally, we’ve created some special new coaching packages and online learning series to support you and your organization during these challenging times.

Group Learning

Exploring challenges in a virtual group setting is a powerful way to leverage learning and create connection. We could explore almost any challenge in a group learning setting. Some examples of current hot topics include:

  • How to effectively work from home and create a feeling of work-life balance
  • How to lead teams in a virtual environment
  • How to develop business in a virtual and uncertain environment

We can customize packages (i.e., blocks of group sessions) for groups within your organization to use as you see fit.

Group Coaching

Coaching in small groups (up to 6 people) via video-conference provides a unique opportunity for peer connection, vulnerability, learning and growth. By sharing their challenges, participants can normalize their experiences, create greater connection and leverage the learning, experience and ideas within the group.

Office Hours

An Office Hours session is a facilitated discussion for a larger group (up to 20 people) via video-conference. The I2L coach facilitates a process where participants share their challenges, ask questions and solicit ideas/solutions from the group and I2L coach.

Ensuring Feedback in a Virtual World – A Webinar Series (for organizations):

Many of you are heading into your annual review process, and a lot of performance feedback will be exchanged over the next few months. Feedback often feels hard, and now, in our virtual world, it may feel even harder.

In this four-part, live webinar series, Brian will provide participants with the mindset, skillset and habits they need to make feedback more effective, fun and impactful…especially when it’s delivered virtually!

  1. An Investing Mindset – How can we shift our mindset to view feedback (and the people we work with) in new ways given this virtual world we now inhabit?
  2. An Inside-Out Approach (Part 1) – This 4-step, inside-out approach will change the way you see and do feedback conversations.
  3. An Inside-Out Approach (Part 2) – A follow-on to Part 1, we will dive deeper into the inside-out approach and learn how to empower the performer by making feedback more actionable.
  4. Feedback Habits – We will explore what new feedback habits will help your new skillset stick and how to leverage technology to improve feedback.

Feedback Podcast Series (for organizations):

We developed this 4-part podcast series based on many years of coaching accountants through the challenges they face in delivering and receiving feedback. Each audio module delivers simple, powerful concepts in bite-sized, digestible pieces over a period of time to maximize the learning. The series focuses on mindset shift (how to view feedback differently), then skillset shift (specific tools and actionable tips):

  • Giving and Receiving Feedback: An Investing Mindset
  • Receiving Feedback that Propels Your Career
  • Giving Feedback: The Inside-Out Approach
  • Giving Feedback: Two Keys to Make It Actionable

This podcast package also includes a reference handout summarizing key concepts from the series and guidance on how to best deliver these modules to your people (including suggested timing and sample e-mail language).
