Are you an executive or human resources leader seeking Executive Coaching for yourself or for your organization? If yes, do any of the following describe you or the high potential leaders you work with?
- Smart and focused
- Hard driving and results-oriented
- Excellent with clients / customers
- High expectations of themselves and others
- Often very analytical
- Working in a fast paced constantly changing and demanding environment
- On the fast track in terms of promotion / leadership succession / career growth?
If so, then the ADVANCE Executive Coaching program is designed for you.
ADVANCE is a one-on-one, highly-customized, six month executive coaching program, an intimate and confidential incubator where leaders – from new to seasoned – can discover and develop aligned new ways of being and leading, new skills and competencies, new behaviors and approaches, new tools and techniques, and new habits and practices.
All of these support a leader to advance their career, grow in their organization and become the thriving executive they are innately meant to be. (70% of executives coached are promoted within a year of their program.)
“Thanks Andrea. I really appreciate your coaching and guidance this past year. I have learned a lot and will continue to.”

Many of the high potential leaders and executives I work with come to executive coaching to grow their ability to:
- Listen more actively and communicate more effectively
- Demonstrate understanding and consideration of other’s points of views
- Identify and nurture leadership potential in others / in successors
- Empower, develop, coach, delegate to, motivate and inspire their team
- Build greater trust and strengthen relationships with key stakeholders / peers
- Advocate, influence and impact with ease and transparency
- Create buy-in and collaboration with key stakeholders for ideas, visions, and plans
- Polish their executive presence and style
- Be a better role model of organizational values
- Work and “play” well with others
- Practice patience and pace themselves
- Keep an appropriate life/work balance
There may of course be other areas a leader wishes to develop that are relevant to them, their team or their organization that can also be addressed.

“Thanks again for your coaching that helps me to continue to look out for potential leadership pitfalls so that I can lead in a more collaborative and influential way.”
-Senior Human Resources Manager, SF Bay Area High Tech Firm
My passion is helping high potential leaders achieve the professional outcomes and impact that they and their organization desire. We do this together in a way that ensures harmony and alignment with the leader’s innate strengths and talents and with their personal career ambitions as well.
As a seasoned Executive C-Level Coach with a solid corporate background in Finance and Human Resources, I have over twenty years of experience advising and consulting with leaders of all levels on financial, career and personnel matters. (You can visit my official bio page here.)
I’ve coached hundreds of high potential organizational executives, leaders, business owners and souls like you who live and lead in fast moving, high tech, metropolitan areas like San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Seattle, Boston, Portland and New York.
I am also the first coach in California to be certified in mBIT (Multiple Brain Integration Technique) – a proven tool backed by science that helps leaders to integrate and apply both their rational AND their intuitive intelligence to wisely guide and evolve their people, their relationships, their decisions and their organizational worlds.
Just like professional athletes work with a coach to maximize their potential, productivity and performance “on the job”, you too deserve to work with a qualified and experienced executive coach who can help you or your leader ADVANCE in their career and THRIVE in their life.
“Not only is Andrea a very good executive coach, she is also a good business person. She understands our business and how to treat each executive engagement as a business proposition.
She is honest, I trust her, and she keeps her client’s confidences. Andrea has the best interests of both the client and the coachee in mind.
Simply put, she is not a waste of time. I’m busy, our executives are busy; and Andrea respects that. She comes prepared and keeps us on track and keeps us focused on the discussion at hand….and she does so with a smile.”
-Raymond Gee, Director Human Resources, Lam Research
