Leadership Development Programs

Group coaching took my experience from a leadership program at work to a place where I felt I belonged, I could grow and stretch into myself, and I could get to know other members on a deeply personal level.

The coaching component is so incredible, and Claire was the greatest partner to all of us that we could have ever dreamed of in that setting!

Claire’s expertise and engaging delivery made the material not only accessible for our healthcare sales team, but also impactful. I particularly appreciated her ability to help the team navigate their questions and case studies with a coaching approach. Claire’s ability to break down complex concepts and encourage thoughtful discussion was incredibly helpful.

Leaders in the training have already shared with me how helpful the tools will be in their day-to-day work.

    Claire has an uncanny ability to disarm those in the room and immediately create a safe and trusting space, meeting individuals where they are in their journey.

    Her warmth, care, and holistic approach to development allow those she interacts with to truly be themselves, using empathy and grace to engage in meaningful conversations to ground others in their vision and values, to allow everyone to reach their full potential.

    I highly recommend Claire Becker to anyone who is truly invested in living an intentional, purposeful, joy-filled life. Claire is a masterful coach; her innate intuitive abilities allow her to guide clients to a deeper understanding of themselves, which enables them to achieve the goals they set.  These goals can be professional, personal, or both.  She has a comfortable, yet professional style. 

    As a new business owner, I have found it helpful to identify a small group of people, my own mini Board of Advisors, to confer and collaborate with for ongoing mutual support, advice, ideation, and counsel.  Claire has been invaluable to me as a business owner, supporting my growth and propelling me to excel toward my vision.

    Before I started coaching with Claire, I felt a bit unfocused and without clear direction. I spent a lot of my workday feeling wrapped up in 'go' mode, constantly executing on plans and actions made by somebody else. I didn't understand, value, or like many of the major parts of my role because, to put it simply, I hadn't taken the time to make connections with them.

    Going through the coaching process with Claire allowed me to re-ground in the values I hold and align my work accordingly.

    I would recommend Claire Becker to anyone who feels more task-oriented than vision-oriented: you can and should (re)ignite your passion and purpose in your work!

    Through coaching with Claire I gained more self awareness and self acknowledgement.

    I realized that the thing I'm most passionate about I rarely talk about or own. I had to do a lot of unpacking to see that even though I'm "successful" I still suffer from impostor syndrome and it's keeping me from taking risks and taking ownership over my career.

    Claire supported me with examples and questions to push my reflections. It was especially helpful when we had to trace back because it served as a bar for my own reflections and helped me get to a more meaningful place.

    Claire is so intentional with her words and questions; they feel both deeply personalized and incredibly insightful. Though the majority of our time together was focused on my professional career, Claire always reminded me to consider who I am as a whole person. As a coach, she strikes a perfect balance of insight, challenge, and humor. Looking back, I realize how much confidence I was able to build through the exercises we did together. Not surprisingly (though at the time, I was a bit shocked!), our work led me to apply for, and be selected for, a literal dream job even though I originally counted myself out.

    Because of her coaching, I am more intentional about how I move about the world, both in my personal and professional life, and for that, I am eternally grateful!

    I was looking to approach professional development in a different way. Not necessarily someone that was going to give me the answers, but help me get to those answers myself. It was really fluid, open conversation to help me think through what it was I wanted to accomplish, what I needed to do differently as well as she could help me through that process as well.

    We identified goals on the front end and manifest a positive outlook so that really becomes my reality. I was able to work through it myself with her guiding me through that process. I was more stable, really in a place I felt more comfortable in those areas than when we started.
