Executive Coaching

Helping leaders improve performance through deep learning.

Executive Coaching is a personalized process of professional development.

Awaken’s executive coaching offers structured 1:1 support from a trained professional who helps you achieve the personal growth and leadership competencies needed for success. Dr. Einfeld goes deeper than conventional leadership development training, helping you to better understand the underlying mindsets that inform your behavior. This is why Awaken Leadership Solutions likes to use the word “transformation.” Executive coaching goes beyond tips, tricks, and formulas. By combining in-depth assessments, structured one on one conversations, and objective, outside feedback, Dr. Einfeld helps you drive meaningful results in your organization.

Our Approach

Awaken’s unique approach to executive coaching is informed by specialized training in human behavior, change management, and adult learning.

First, your coaching starts with an in-depth Discovery process where Dr. Einfeld uses a set of evidence based coaching tools and behavioral assessments to help you gain valuable perspective on yourself, others, and the pain points and goals for your unique situation. As a part of this, he incorporates psychologically validated personal assessments that uncover insight into your personal motivators, your default perceptions of yourself and others, and how you filter and process information. 

Next, Dr. Einfeld creates an action plan dashboard that identifies and prioritizes your measurable performance and learning goals. He leverages the insight gained from your Discovery process to refine your goals for the coaching engagement. Awaken’s motto is: perspective before planning. Dr. Einfeld determines a rhythm of ongoing 1:1 coaching sessions that work for you, providing you with structured support and accountability so that you can overcome obstacles to achieve your goals.
