One-on-One Executive Leadership Coaching

The key to heightening your potential and impact as a leader is to have a personalized development path based on your unique values and needs.  It also helps to have a coach who can help you tap into subtle yet powerful pathways to actualizing your full development. That is why Questage® is different, and why we promise results that will have a noticeable and meaningful impact on your life and career.

Questage® Executive Leadership Coaching focuses on whole leader development. Utilizing best in class assessments and reflective exercises, Questage coaches develop personalized growth and development strategies tapping into the heart of what makes an effective leader so you can level-up your impact at every stage. 

We work with emerging leaders, senior and C-Suite executives to develop a set of desired outcomes that will address behavioral shifts to elevate your leadership impact and potential. We help you integrate new leadership techniques using your work and life as a laboratory for effective change. As you begin to lead differently (and with greater consistency) you will develop sustainable behaviors, attitudes, and actions for a lifetime of impactful leadership.Questage Executive Leadership Coaching Program varies from six to twelve months in length. 

  • Expand your communication impact for different audiences knowing when to manage (directive), when to lead (motivate and inspire) and when to coach (curious, empowering) for greater impact and internal confidence.
  • Elevate your leader presence to assume greater confidence with key stakeholders and recognition as a critical organizational asset.
  • Calibrate personal authority as a leader, allowing you to have greater access to persuading and influencing stakeholders within and outside the organization.
  • Define and implement your “brand” by strengthening key leadership behaviors in your role so key stakeholders see you as a confident thought leader with a high career ceiling.
  • Improve your work-life integration by prioritizing key priorities such as health, family, and things that are important to you personally and professionally.

High-Performance Team Dynamic Program

Teams are facing unprecedented challenges in our current work environments. The complexities of achieving business goals, revenue targets, and shareholder promises require elevated performance and strong team dynamics to achieve business goals successfully. Under the best working conditions, elevating to high performance requires commitment, trust and focus; in the midst and aftermath of a global pandemic, the stakes are even higher.

The Questage High-Performance Team Dynamic Program uses the powerful, scientifically validated Integrative Enneagram framework as a roadmap for elevating overall team performance quickly by understanding individual motivations and how they impact group dynamics.

This interactive, team-based experience promises to help high-functioning teams reach new heights by empowering stakeholders with a deeper understanding of themselves, each other, and their individual and collective pathways to grow and develop. 

As the only executive team building program of its kind, the Questage High-Performance Team Dynamic program helps managers, directors, and C-suite officers strengthen their resolve as a high-impact group by unleashing their full, collective potential. This program does not revolve around typical team bonding exercises that leaders are exposed to at corporate retreats and professional development seminars; rather, our executive team building program aims to elevate group performance by helping each member learn how to bring out the best in themselves and their peers. 

  • Each Team member learns their core motivations tied to their individual strengths and development opportunities, to increase individual and team output, performance, and impact.
  • Integrative Enneagram results produce a Team Profile that reveals the team’s core motivations, strengths, blind spots, and possible challenges, allowing the group to define and elevate its brand as a high-functioning, high-impact, high-performance leadership team.
  • Action plans are created to address specific issues to elevate individual and team dynamic awareness, build on the team strengths and address possible challenges.

Testimonials

“Working with Janis gave me an opportunity to explore a safe yet challenging space for learning and growing as a leader. She guided me through the process of identifying my leadership shadow and the impact it has on others. Janis pushed me to step outside of my comfort zone and challenged the way I was accustomed to operating and leading. By completing executive coaching, I have noticeable improvements to my emotional intelligence, I have found my team members to be more engaged and have grown beyond expectations personally and professionally. This process has taught me a new level of awareness, bringing simplicity to the work I do each day and balance to myself and my team. Janis is personable in her approach, professional in her delivery and has experienced first-hand what it means to be an effective leader. I cannot give a higher recommendation for executive coaching than working with Janis. “

VP, United Healthcare

“Janis was my coach/mentor for two years, and what a difference she has made on my career, my approach, and the way that I look at my areas of opportunity! Janis is able to use her own experiences as a woman in an executive role, and her journey to get there to help mentor and provide examples that put into practice what I could be facing as well. She asks the right questions that get me thinking what the true issues are and gives me the homework and coaching to arrive and the solutions or potential ideas. Personally, I have grown so much the last two years, thanks in big part to her support, guidance, and honest and brilliant advice.”

CSMO, Marriott International, Caribbean & Latin America

“I had the opportunity to work with Janis and Allan of Questage in late 2022 and 2023. As a result of rapid growth, most of our HR leadership team had joined in the prior 12 months. We invited Janis and Allan to work with us to accelerate the formation of our leadership team. They were both very attentive to learning the culture of the company, the initiatives of the business and HR function, and the team’s present state. In doing so, they could effectively structure individual and group sessions to accelerate team formation. Further, their awareness of the “system” allowed them to facilitate discussions and lean into vulnerabilities appropriately.”

SVP HUMAN RESOUCES, INTUITIVE SURGICAL

“The Questage Enneagram & Team Dynamics program was one of the best leadership sessions in which I have participated. While the team knew each other well prior to this exercise, this program provided another level of insight explaining each team member’s core motivation which helps us understand behaviors and actions more fully. Lead by Janis and Allan, the entire experience was interactive, fun, and extremely valuable. This deeper understanding of each other and how our team can work more effectively is a game changer.”

VICE PRESIDENT, MARRIOTT SELECT BRANDS FRANCHISE OPERATIONS

“We have worked with Questage extensively for both Team Dynamics (at the leadership team and sub-team levels) and individual coaching for our executives. Their unique approach utilizing the Enneagram tool resulted in improved collaboration, mutual understanding and trust among the leadership team, more effective leadership and coaching strategies with the broader team, and better resilience at managing the rapid change in our space. I cannot recommend them highly enough; they have been a true partner in our team’s journey from forming to performing and beyond.”

SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, MARRIOTT INTERNATIONAL

“I recently stepped into a leadership role at a hotel where our senior team had a mix of fresh perspectives and seasoned experience. Recognizing the importance of unity and understanding among us, I knew we needed a program that would bridge those gaps and foster collaboration. With the powerful tools that Questage provides, we crafted a tailored initiative that met our team’s unique needs and aligned our aspirations. Janis played a crucial role in rallying our team and guiding us toward a shared vision of success. Together, we are not just achieving our goals but also building meaningful connections that empower us all.”

I owe a lot of who I am as a leader to Janis’s coaching.”
