Coaching FOR CHANGE

experienced     inspiring    passionate

  hi, I’m claudia. 

STEP-UP. STRIDE FORWARD.

Executive Coaching is a second career for me.  After leaving my last place of employment and looking for my next role in IT, I realized that I was finding the same-old, same-old, and my heart just wasn’t in it.  I had energy for something new, something that would pique my curiosity and would allow me to contribute.  I discovered that what I enjoyed most about my roles was mentoring and guiding my direct reports. Being in a position where we have to straddle both technology and relationship building proved to be challenges that we did not learn how to address in school.

Walk confidently into any room, embrace your feminine energy, and create opportunities for growth.”

COACHING for CHANGE

PROGRAMS FOR LEADERS AND EMERGING LEADERS

To be our best selves at work, we need to understand where we are and decide if it’s the right place for us. If not, the power of change and choice is in our hands. I am here to help you. 

Coaching is a process that supports people to move from compliance to engagement.

    HOLIDAY RESOURCE

    The holiday season is fast approaching, so why do we dread December?

    Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah or Festivus, December can be a very busy time.  It’s a time for family and friends to get together, a time for reflection and a time for celebration.  So why are we giving ourselves panic attacks preparing for this joyous season?

    Have you ever asked yourself Why?  Why do I have to do it all?

    step UP. STRIDE FORWARD.

    YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF.

    For over 30 years, I was an IT leader specializing in application development & maintenance, project management and data analytics in corporate, not-for-profit and government offices. Like many women, I became accustomed to being the only woman in the room. I knew this needed to change.

    When you recognize that change is needed – whether at work or within yourself – you have a choice: do I step up and make the change or sit back and do nothing?

    I chose to step up and stride forward toward change.

    Now I coach women and organizations on the unique challenges surrounding development, leadership, confidence, and performance.

    I found Claudia to be an excellent listener...

    I worked with Claudia Jones as an executive coach for a number of months.  I was dealing with some serious business related and personal issues at the time and needed help in order to navigate those issues.  I found Claudia to be an excellent listener, she asked the right questions, and probed in a way that opened up the conversation.  We were able to successfully work through these issues in a way that was respectful, yet direct.  I was very pleased with the results and would highly recommend Claudia.

    ...by my side supporting me

    I learned from Claudia that as women in IT, we are minorities, but we have our advantages, such as relationship building and influencing the business. Later due to health reasons, I had been on sick leave for over a year, and felt anxious about going back to work. She was by my side supporting me and giving me great insight. As a result, I went back to work full of peace and joy!
